Trouble is, everyone is in the penalty box nowadays, leading to more congestion. Can never understand why teams don't leave a player up the pitch when defending corners, meaning the opposition need to bring 2 players back with him.
Didn't Tranmere used to do a thing at corners where they'd push two players upfield, right on either touchline, meaning the attacking team would have to leave at least two players back, but usually three because they couldn't leave a huge gap in the middle.
Common sense I’d have thought, esp. if you have a couple of pacey wingers (or strikers) that are disinclined towards defending
