Jaqen Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Played striker for about 10 years through youth football and I don't think I ever scored a header in a game There's generally not a lot of crosses or long balls at that level anyway.

SEMTEX Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 ... I scored a header once for my university intramural team. Fuck knows how. Corner came in and I was just standing on the keeper to piss him off, it managed to bounce and go through about 10 people, nodded it in from about a yard. Barely made it over the line Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you say it is? I'd say being able to properly control the ball with your chest/feet and pass accurately along the ground are pretty fundamental to any style of football.

Beren Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Have as much control heading the ball as Sissoko. Could make contact with the the ball, but the power and direction were 100% chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an important part of the game. Just because it isn't as trendy now doesn't mean it isn't a useful skillset. It's an entirely facile argument when the real issue is whether or not it's giving kids brain damage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is where i'm at. Where are kids continually heading the ball? Academies? Barely head the thing until 13/14 in youth teams and school football teams. And even then it's mostly Berahino attempts from defenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astroblack Posted November 11, 2015 Share Posted November 11, 2015 Bored at work so looking up stats. Ozil has 10 assists this season. 24 in his time in the PL and he hasn't really played that many games. Yet pundits and commentators critique him more than any player I've ever seen.
