radlord 24 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 Yep Novo did it today and the same thing happened. Actually Novo looked really over-confident today, he was trying all sorts of Hollywood shots/passes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jardy 0 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 did alan hutton not do it for charlie adams goal against stuttgart last season? He stole it from pedro though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imodium 411 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 It's a good sign that senior players are picking up on these traits Mendes has (hopefully they can do it right!) and hopefully the young players are taking a look at what he can do and learning from him in training. A true footballer and a joy to have in the SPL regardless of whether folk are Gers fans or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
docspiderman 1,239 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 A lot of players do it because they are so one footed but Mendes does it to put the ball where he wants amd with the spin he wants. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OlegKuznetsov 10,816 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 I do it all the time, more trees than teamates receive the ball though. I must admit, I was always rather proud of my right foot passing. I also specialised in goals like Mendes' today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue87 0 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 If they need someone to teach them how to pass the ball with the outside of the foot then we're in trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul73 0 Posted January 5, 2009 Share Posted January 5, 2009 If they need someone to teach them how to pass the ball with the outside of the foot then we're in trouble. You're not wrong. Amazes me the amount of stray passes we see from pros in this league. How can you train every day and not g rasp the basics like passing, taking a corner or spotting a pass yet get paid £1000's a week? Unbelievable!
