Samba is my top scorer!

All his goals are from croners. Just a *little* unrealistic? But fun nonetheless! haha

Also, can I just say I really like the new patch - I'm scoring loads and the game has never been so much fun :-)

GJ SI!

I haven't played the new patch yet, and I'm considering not installing it. I never really had a problem with corners. I spend 10 mins nucking around with them a couple of months ago and I score at least once every three games. Don't know what the fuss was about. Wonder if I'll go on a 3 season unbeaten run on the new "easier" version of FM08.

No - get your best header/jumper to challenge the goalkeeper than set corners to 6 yard box. Also get your second best defender to attack near post, and any other good headers to attack ball from deep.

That's what I was doing. I just thought with that extreme amount of goals that the near post trick worked again! :thup:

Jazzfusion, your player is a monster in the air, so ofc he will dominate one on ones in the penaty area.

Was working wonders with me and Shefki Kuqi for Crystal Palace.

In fact i just put in a bid for Danny Shittu specifically for this purpose!
