Far post corner routine
8 direct corner goals and 11 from corners in the league. 8 free kick goals.
Psg do not have the tallest players for a far post corner routine and the near post routine is more effective.
Only the far post routine was used in this test.
When using the 3 corner routines, the familiarity was low.
Good results with the near post and far post used together.
New short corner routine works with most top 6 teams across division, teams with good takers, height, heading, creators and jumping reach.



Short corner routines used and tested alone.
If it works with Psg it will work with most teams with the necessary qualities.
13 direct corner goals in the league.
Im very happy with the fm 26.2 winter update.
Player upgrades, Pacho's heading attribute was upgraded to 16 from 14.
Michael Olise's crossing is now 17, finishing 15,
Lius Diaz also got a good boost to his movements (16) and anticipation.

I have not had the best of season, set piece wise.
Recently signed vlahovic in the January transfer window to add height to the team i also put Lukeba as A2.
I have tinkered with the set piece routine, it affected the familiarity and results. Currently 7 goals in 20games.

Usual corner set up with my near post routine.
3 v3 at the near post.

Recent, Monaco test the save crashed though.

Game week 25 , 10 direct corner goals for Monaco, 14 from corners.
4 indirect free kick goals, 7 in the data hub.
Using the near post routine and the new short corner routine.
Mixed free kick routine and short free kick routine.
Second Monaco Test, consistent corner results
9 direct corner goals, 15 from corners.
Indirect free kick goals just 2.
This AS Monaco side scored less goals compared to the first save : 2.1 in the second test and 2.3 in the first.
Yesterday, 27th March
I observed some corner goals in the international friendly.
Germany's corner routine was quite similar to my short corner routine. (Although inspired by Pacho's goal against Leverkusen)

For Jonathan Tah's goal. Kimmich takes the corner short to Wirtz who crosses it to the far post
Where Jonathan Tah was lurking.
Fm 26 tweak : A1 to lurk at far post.
