"He's got two good feet".

Do people normally have one good foot and one bad foot?

"The keeper could do nothing about that goal"

Really? So he couldn't have saved it and prevented a goal?

"He's good in the air for his height".

Is there a certain height at which people are good in the air?

"He's surprisingly fast for a big guy".

Are big guys normally slow?

:cool:

"Good touch for a big lad!"

As if because he's tall he should be like a giraffe on roller skates!

"If they didn't have [insert players name] they wouldn't be half as good!"

Well they do have him, they paid £4m so they could have him!

Alot of players are one footed and can literally do nothing with the other. Gregg Wylde for example.

You'd expect a big tall guy to be good in the air as he already has a height advantage and the opposite for a small guy?

yes, Naturally players who are both footed aren't actually born that way, My guess is that it takes hours & hours on the training ground perfecting the weaker foot.

They're are some areas in the goal that ANY keeper simply cannot get to whilst he is in the centre of the goalposts.

No their isn't a certain height, Although wouldn't you agree Naismith is good in the air for his height? He wins an incredible amount of headers considering he's only around 5ft 8-10ish, Compare him to Kyle Lafferty who is 6ft 3 & that "Saying" will make alot of sense.

Yes, Larger players often arent blessed with a good turn of speed so it is rare to see a big man traveling at pace.

Thanks for that Professor Hawking. :cool:

I find it endlessly puzzling that a player with a good left foot doesn't merely have a left foot, he has a "wand" or "cultured left peg" but a player with a good right foot just has a good right foot. Right feet are never cultured and they are definitely never a wand.

The real winner tonight was football.

We’ve reached the business end of the season.

This game needs a goal.

If a Brazilian had scored that goal we’d be raving about it for days.

That was schoolboy defending. - Celtic schoolboys weren't good at defending.
