Okay it's a quiet news day. 1.Player latches on to a through ball, bears down on goal, rounds the keeper and finishes with aplombI miss Martin Carruthers That's ironic, he missed a lot.

I remember Toddy at Barnsley rounding the keeper and then taking the same time as it takes to make a toasted sandwich before cocking it up.

When was the last time we even scored directly from a free kick? Wasn’t it Allen at Sheffield United? Yes. We've had 48 shots from fK's in the Championship with an average xG of 0.068. We'd expect on average to score three, but JA's is our only success. 37 have either been blocked or missed the target. In the PL from 2014-15 onwards we've had 71 shots from FK's, you'd expect to score four and we've actually scored three. All by Shaqiri who'd taken 19 of the 71 shots. 55 were blocked or missed. One hit the woodwork. Shaq aside, we've been fairly so-so at free kicks since 2014/15.

A Charlie Adam pearler from in our own half. A Peter Hoekstra chipped penno. A 1st minute goal. (I was going to say 'a last minute winner' but we had one of those last season.) A Vincent Pericard rocket shot bulging the onion bag. A volley like this....
OS.

Okay it's a quiet news day. 1.Player latches on to a through ball, bears down on goal, rounds the keeper and finishes with aplom Most recent examples of the above? I just know someone will say 'last week' while I am thinking it was forever ago! Sad really that I can't remember these goals happening regularly but can remember a season of Martin Carruthers being put through regularly only to find new ways to fuck it up.
