    Well the Premier League has been blessed with a glut of goals so far this season but the managers must be tearing their hair out at the defensive slip ups. Has anyone compiled any stats as to how many goals have come from set pieces? It seems that any time there is a free kick on or close to the edge of the box it's fifty fifty whether a goal will result. Corners provide a fair share too.
