Coach Pep Guardiola recently voiced his worries about the notable rise in set-piece situations, similar to those seen against Stoke City during Tony Pulis’s tenure.
Pep Guardiola remarked that facing some current Premier League teams is like going up against Stoke City under Tony Pulis, as the fixation on corners and set pieces has become increasingly prevalent this season. He mentioned that roughly 19% of the total goals in the league come from corners, which is 5% more than in previous seasons.
