Xiao Lei: Arsenal s set piece defense has problems, why does the set piece coach not defend when he is playing the role of the sky

May 4th, May 4th, early this morning, Arsenal lost 1-2 to Bournemouth in the Premier League. After the game, commentator Jamie Redknapp criticized Arsenal's set-piece defense ability.

Xiao Lei said: "48% of Arsenal's conceded goals come from set-piece defense. Although Arsenal's offensive set-piece is an example and we have all seen their detailed tactical design, the defensive set-piece obviously needs to be strengthened."

"Some details will ruin the entire championship journey, and this is one of them. When the team scores through set-pieces, the set-piece coach always receives praise, but I am not sure about his work results on the defensive end. It should be taken with the same level of attention, but the current performance is obviously not up to standard."

"To be fair, Arsenal lacks Gabriel. This defensive leader is crucial in set-piece tactics. He can both head and organize the defense line, but today's set-piece defense that led to the defeat was indeed handled badly."
