Goals from outside the box

Post by Zesty » Sat Dec 01, 2018 7:33 pm

Can anybody find out how many we’ve conceded this season? Seems to be a lot and may be a weak point of Joe that is being targeted?

I’m sure you could find out yourself since it’s you who has come up with this theory.

I’ve noticed a lot this season but don’t know how many without going through every replay.

Why ask someone else to if you can’t be bothered ?

What’s your problem? People have stats like this that’s why I asked. If you’re going to be a dick then don’t bother replying.

I think its more about the players having the time and space to make those shots from outside the box, than the keeper's ability to save them.

Townsend has at least 3 sighters before he scored

We used to defend in a shape that made long shots ineffective, backing off the way we do now is just inviting those long sots. Certainly nothing to do with the goalkeeper.
