Leeds United have stood as a sleeping dragon within English football ever since their relegation in 2004, with the Peacocks regularly tipped to make a return to the top-flight but always seeming to underperform and fall short.This season, however, could be different as Garry Monk has led the Yorkshire giants valiantly; standing fourth in the Championship, six points behind leaders Brighton and five points off the automatic promotion spots.With Brighton and Newcastle looking strong this season, Leeds may have to settle for a spot in the play-offs but there is every chance the Peacocks could go all the way to celebrations at Wembley- with this stat showing the changes Monk has overseen.
Scoring ten goals from corners so far this season, Leeds have already surpassed the figure they boast from the past two seasons combined- with just shy of 25% of the Peacocks goals this season coming from those set-pieces.
If Leeds maintain this ratio, opposition defences won’t have a moments rest and will struggle to keep Leeds out, which is good news for the supporters at Elland Road.
