As long as it wasn't against us. There was a free-kick the last week or so, can't remember who, where the free-kick taker rolled the ball a yard to a team mate who played the ball under the wall, about a foot away from where the player was lying down, and scored. Was beautiful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know who did it first but it seems to have quickly become a regular thing. It looks ridiculous, and I hope the player that's the one to lie on the grass feels like a right mug while doing so. Can't wait to see some melt hauling a team-mate on their shoulders from a corner kick to give a height advantage... I think lifting on the shoulders is against the rules. I can't be arsed to prove it, but I'd wondered about it before and looked it up. Think it would maybe come under dangerous play. Bit off topic, but related to free kick innovations - I was wondering if someone like Ward Prowse has a free kick, might it not be worth putting a player or two on the goal line, or just right in front. Cons that you're playing everyone onside, but if they're prolific thought might be worth it. (I suppose not, otherwise someone would be doing it...)

gbandit Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 I'm not religious in the slightest but I couldn't give a shit about people making overt religious gestures. It's probably got some superstition/ obsessive-compulsive element linked to it for some players but whatever helps them to feel comfortable is fine by me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 He’s been doing this a lot lately, deploying “here we go” at random in his tweets. “The clubs are nearing agreement on a fee, here we go almost confirmed,” etc. Grating. Just start all of your “transfer is confirmed” tweets with “Here we go!” and leave it at that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s very reliable even though he doesn’t break things early, it doesn’t mean he needs to make himself into a personality with it and should realise people only follow him because his information is accurate, not because he’s got some wacky lines Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 If a free kick hit the draft excluders hand (and it’s in the box) would it automatically be a pen?

Or score and whip off their shirt to reveal a t-shirt with I BELONG TO SATAN on it. There's only one thing more revolting players can do with their fingers (ruling out bodily insertions obvs) after scoring and that is make a heart shape. That's worse than godbothering stuff.

It's not nonsense though and it's mind boggling that it took everyone so long to figure it out. It takes away one option from the freekick taker entirely and allows the players in the wall to jump as high as they can. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted May 8, 2023 Share Posted May 8, 2023 Definitely guilty of it myself (for Arsenal this season for example), but every time someone loses an important lead or game that they needed to, or were expected to win, them being labelled as bottlers, or bottling it.
