Being tall won't help that. 30 minutes ago, SPWF said: If he had read the cross properly he would’ve been closer to Shankland and been able to put him off the header. He didn’t have a good game yesterday but his height wasn’t the reason. Being taller / more physical helps offset it. You can be small and good, you can’t be small and average as you don’t get away with as much. HG5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be small and good, you can’t be small and average as you don’t get away with as much. The ball sailed over him by at least a foot. A few inches in height wouldn't have made any difference. If he gets close to Shankland he can at least make it difficult for him even if he doesn't win the header. Barisic is 6'1" and no better.

You can be small and good, you can’t be small and average as you don’t get away with as much. I think yesterday’s the first time you could point to his height as a possible downside, even though I wouldn’t agree with that assessment. He didn’t have a good game yesterday, but he’s shown enough in previous games to not warrant getting written off because of it. And he’s still a better option than Barisic.

The performance yesterday and in Prague were not worth crowing over but I'll give Clement his due he's still to spend time on the training field with these lads. I'll be waiting at least until Christmas before I start getting even slightly excited. BlueAvenger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I played amateur the best header of the ball in our team and possibly the league was only 5’5 he said it was all about the timing and positioning, was unreal watching him constantly beat guys at 6ft to headers lol Was Robbie Winters uncle and a bit of a mad bastard lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
