Part of it is who is playing. Only 3 players score from corners regularly in the entire squad, souttar herrington and irvine. With just souttar on the pitch, its obvious the ball is going to him so i guess they float it to him looking for a second ball?

You don’t necessarily need excessively tall players to score from corners. What you do need is good delivery, good runs, and a desire to beat the defenders to the ball. The high floated crosses that we are persisting with is not good delivery in international football these days.
