The last time I remember us scoring direct from a free kick was on Bradys debut vs Chelsea
To be honest it isn't even so much about scoring direct, we just don't do that, it's more the lack of creativity or variance to the routines. It must be so easy for opposition teams to defend against.

Our free kick routine

Yeah, that ONE freekick routine.

Diagonal ball to the back post.

Every, single, time.

Serious question, how many goals have we scored from them?

Just seems far too predictable. I may be being unfair, but it is driving me mad.
