Default Corners - Attacking & Defending

Does anyone have any tips for how to set up for corners. This is something i have never struggled with on previous games but this time round it is killing me.

I'm half way through a season and am the only team not to score from a corner and it seems as though i concede on average a goal a game from corners. What makes it so frustrating is that i concede so few from open play that if i could just fix this i would be flying.

I have everything set up as you would expect, wingers on the posts (these are generally small, poor markers so makes sense), centre backs marking tall players, full backs marking small players and everyone else back or man marking. There isnt many other options available so what am i doing wrong. I brick it every time they get a corner!!!

I had a similar problem myself. Theres only one solution and thats the height advantage. Plus making sure you have enough bodies back in there.

attacking corner:
Aim - near post

Best header: assign to "near post flick on"
Strong and good header: "challenge gk"
Good long shot: "lurk outside area"
Fast player: "attack ball for deep"

Works for me!
