joeyt Posted January 2 Share Posted January 2 Fitz Hall is the best for sure. I often find other sports have better ones than football: Billy Twelvetrees- 36 (twelve 3s) Steve Waugh - Tugga (Tug of War) Martin Offiah - Chariots Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppe Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I've got a question and maybe someone with better football knowledge than me can answer this: What is Kai Havertz good at? Other than being a cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I don’t think Havertz is bad but I was mystified that Arsenal wanted him for so much money. Almost seemed like collusion to bail Chelsea out of their financial hole. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was 100% an Arteta-led vanity signing because the Lego One was convinced Rice-Odegaard-Havertz would be the new Rodri-De Bruyne-David Silva. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Havertz is clearly a good footballer but sort of fits into that category of languid creative player who is neither here nor there position wise, so doesnt really fit into a system. Someone described him as a nine and a half, which isnt really any good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Havertz drops into the same category as Mason Mount for me. Tommy Toucher knew how to get him playing really well in his system but has done nothing since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stal Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 It's pretty obvious that, for example, a keeper dives to the left and tips a shot around the post then the corner is taken from that side. But if it's fairly central and he tips it over the bar then how is it decided which side do the attacking side take the corner from? Can they just pick which side themselves?

Aye I've never noticed it or even thought about it before, so thank you. I was just sat here and the thought crossed my mind so cheers for clearing that up, but has it ever been contested? I can just imagine some whinger like arteta arguing that they lost as they werent allowed to let their best corner taker take it from their preferred side.

Someone described him as a nine and a half, which isnt really any good. He’s not even particularly creative. He links up well but not a creative force imo. He’s has got ability but doesn’t deliver consistently. He’s a supporting striker. A poor man’s Eidur Gudjonson or a skinny Olivier Giroud. He’ll score some class goals. Think he scored a banger against England. Excellent first touch and finish in Howe’s first season up against Burn. This season people have definitely given up on him. I thought he could be good for 15 PL goals but he won’t get that now. Earning more than Saka is criminal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belfast Boy Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Nothing more than that, I only heard it when driving across Donegal, two guys on a radio station discussing english football suggested there was no injury and he wouldnt play this season for other reasons. Probably a load of nonsense seeing as no one else is mentioning it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I could look this up but I’m sure someone knows the actual rules. Can you score directly from a throw in as the attacking side or does it need to take a touch beforehand? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to take a touch beforehand, earlier on in the year Tom Tonks "Scored" from a throw-in in the FA Cup for Tamworth, but only because the keeper flapped at the ball, and it hit him on the way in, if he'd just left it, it would have been a goal kick. I think it went down as an own goal as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exiled in Texas Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Laws of the game A goal cannot be scored directly from a throw-in: if the ball enters the opponents’ goal – a goal kick is awarded if the ball enters the thrower’s goal – a corner kick is awarded Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
