Seems we have 3 players in Brady, Defour and Gudmonson who can all take a decent free kick and present a real goal threat from a set piece around the box.
Can anybody remember us having this many goal scoring threats from set pieces albeit Brady being out for a while?

Re: Freekicks
I remember the O'Connors and Blake being able to bang em in. Not as good as these but I'm sure there were a few in that side.

Re: Freekicks
They should all provide similar quality from corners/set piece deliveries into the box but we look as threatening as a startled puppy in those positions. Something to work on, particularly as we play for free kicks in those kind of positions.
Re: Freekicks
I think we should try a quick free kick now and again like City did last week. Many times they are over the ball and somebody is free.

Re: Freekicks
Robbie's free kick against PNE at the Bee Hole End was one of the best I've seen on the Turf.
Can't remember the season, but what a cracker.
But yes, Defour in particular has a great eye for that.

True. Usually our corners ends up as a shot on goal by the other team.what_no_pies wrote:They should all provide similar quality from corners/set piece deliveries into the box but we look as threatening as a startled puppy in those positions.

Re: Freekicks
Blakes free kick away at Preston was probably the best I've ever seen Electro. They must've been sick of him.
