Ashley Barnes once scored a cracking header against Hull at home in the 14/15 Premier League season.

Hope he doesn’t start against Norwich.

It's not just my opinion, this below was taken off a Web site and there is loads more and videos on it to.

When a player is one on one with the goalkeeper – he or she only has the keeper to beat – sometimes the player will look one way but shoot the other way. This means that he is pretending to shoot in one direction but actually goes a different way – he or she gives the goalkeeper the eyes.

For example,Liverpool striker Firmino has scored many ‘no-look goals’. To give the keeper the eyes is similar in that the forward will look one way and then fool the keeper by placing the ball in a different part of the goal. To give the keeper the eyes.

Bayern Munich defender Joshua Kimmich scored at the near post against Real Madrid keeper Keylor Navas – he gave the keeper the eyes to beat him at his near post.

I won't call you clueless as its just your opinion
OK I got it wrong.

Despite their forward being side on and Muric on the move. He looked longingly into his eyes to see any clues of which way he would shoot.
Despite shooting first time, he still had time, when pupil to pupil, to look in the opposite direction to which he would shoot.

Just back from a city break and finally got to see the goals. Their second must be one of the worst defended goals we have ever conceded.
1) THB plays 2 Mackems onside 5 yds behind the rest of our line.
2) THB ends up as a LB and gets nowhere near close enough to block the cross.
3) Roberts heads the ball straight up in the air when he could have just helped it on to the touchline.
4) JBG goes up like a tart and instead of getting a head on it allows it to spin off from his back.
5) Muric gets beaten at his near post.
A collective nightmare.

I watched the game again last night on Clarets Player
Ash didn’t do much wrong and even VK has said he pulled off Ash to get Manuel Benson on but that Ash hadn’t played any worse than any of the team who VK said we’re awful in the first half

I tried watching the second half on Clarets player yesterday & it kept breaking up/pausing.
Hopefully the match stream was better than that.
