    Didn't think considering he doesn't take any set pieces.

    Or statistically do corners and free kicks not count as assists?

    I think we've just not been as threatening from set pieces this season as we were last.

    And over the last few months Hammill has been taking as many set pieces as Hourihane.

    Credit to Marley though, he does a lot more than some give him credit for.

    I've always rated Marley to be fair. Hammill has been taking quite a few set pieces lately though and we've not really needed a corner watch this season.

    Tyke_80 posted earlier this week that He was 5th in league with assists, one from first place.

    Last season the difference was Nyatanga, Rambo and Waring getting on the end of many of Conor's crosses.

    Wasn't Hourihane injured for about 2 months?

    They've made a similar number of appearances (not sure how many minutes each have played though).
