Zappa6995 3,432 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Totally agree and to Crossing add Throw In's or as those of a certain age might call them Shy's. It's Pathetic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

martyboy2009 11 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Our throw-INS are one of the absolute most annoying things to watch! We just throw it to the other team every time! It's embarrassing! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegendofCoop 16,374 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Weiss put some fucking great crosses in yesterday....right on the penalty spot. As a striker...that's exactly where you want them to go. Just a pity none of our two did anything about that yesterday.As for Mo Edu's throw-in's...he almost looked limp wristed when he threw them. Totally agree about the cross's though, other than Weiss, we have no one capable! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Whittakers deliverys yesterday were terrible. Broadfoot isn't much better at that part of his game - infact, he's worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Weiss can deliver a good ball, he just had an off day yesterday.I'm willing to put his performance down to a one-off off day aswell. He's proved he's class, he just needs to keep the chin and maybe work a wee bit harder. The wee man's a class act. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Vladimir Weiss final ball is either a hit or a miss - a lot of the time, it's a complete and utter waste.It really frustrates me that our players cannot deliver a ball - 9/10 it is absolutely woeful, and has been that way for far too long now. Anytime we get the chance to deliver a ball, a corner, free-kick etc, I fully expect us to either fail to beat the first man, thrap it into the wall or fire over everyone's head. Our throw-in's are just as bad. The lack of movement and players loking for the ball is a joke, and in the end, we just tend to throw it down the line and hope for the best...Basic stuff, yet we really struggle at times.

Amac9 2,060 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 When we get a free-kick or corner the opposition might as well have the ball because no one is capable of putting a ball into a good area for someone to get on the end of it. Nearly every single on fails to beat the first man.And our throw ins are shocking. It seems that any other team can take a throw in, get the ball down and keep it but we get a throw in and straight away the ball is out of play or the opposition has it back.

Papa Sasac 164 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Whittaker, every time, can't get his crosses off the ground. They curve out form the goal, and are easily cleared by the 1st defender. Weiss, has been mentioned, has the ability to produce cracking crosses, but yesterday was an off day for the kid. And I know it's not his job, but Bougherra's crossing must improve. Charging forward and creating chances are a huge part of his game, and 9/10 it goes way to far and out for a GK.

Mansion 120 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 Papacs' throws and crosses are disgustingly awful.Weiss can deliver 8 times out of 10. He has a good deadball cross.Davis is ok and has a no bad deadball situation.Whittaker does the odd suprising ball in the box, very seldom does he do it.

adam2102 556 Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 lafferty can cross. just a pity hes the one you want on the end of it! not seen naismith cross but he has good technique so should be good at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dundeebear3 0 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Broadfoot can occassionally deliver a good cross, 1 in 10 maybe. Papac can deliver a good cross about once a season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes young and will learn but apart from him, we have no wingers and they are the guys who should be able to cross the ball. We dont have any crossers of the ball, but we dont have any wingers, Weiss aside. Our full backs get up the park very well but their crossing too is poor. Maybe its something the guys can and should be working. Jelavic and Beattie need wingers to supply them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartmccallsfall 4 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I call this 1st man syndrome. We've had it for ages and I wish we could get rid of it. We just can't seem to get ball by the 1st man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarcheVinny 1,003 Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I have slated many a whittaker cross, broadfoot cross, papac cross, davis corner that doesn't beat the first man (not so often but still happens), weiss crossing has been poor last few games, as are his corners and freekicks (not beating 1st man again). I just don't get how professionals cannot learn this basic skill. And it is basic. I'm a big lump and can cross off both feet due with pace and whip due to PRACTICE. As my mates a keeper its all we did from 18 to 22 after work in the summer. Cross after cross after cross. And it paid off! So why can't these boys just spend their afternoons doin this for a week. We'd be so much better off! However, whitttys cross for broadfoot v bursa More of the same please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
