He consistently just pisses about with the ball when taking dead balls, but he's not the only one ! 10 hours ago, Boyyou said: May be wrong but can't think of many, if any, keepers this season who have consistently looked to get rid early. Perhaps it's a modern coaching thing. 9 hours ago, GlossopLatic said: I think their was a time in the early 90s when you would see John Hallworth come out collect a cross and bowl it out to a winger or a full back. Peter Schmeichel was legendary for doing this as he could throw the ball to the halfway line. You don't see keeper's throw the ball out quickly anymore. However goalkeepers today are far far better with the ball at their feet and every now and then will put a quick ball forward to start a counter attack. Ederson at Man City is probably the best example of this Now not many goalkeeper's in the world certainly non at this level are capable of distributing the ball aswell as him. But perhaps it is something we should look to work on but you need players who are going to be alive to this I don't think we are a counter attacking team. Maybe if you have Green on the wing then an early release to him is probably your best bet. Either that or if you have Norwood and Fondop uptop a quick release for them to fight it out with centre backs might be a good opportunity for a quick counter attack. Although Hudson is the better keeper. Norman is far superior at setting up counter attacks by distributing well and quickly. I don't think it's a coaching thing I think most would rather have the better keeper than the better footballer. That GK at Gateshead who chucked at least 2 in for us this season was pretty good at distribution too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
