Dead Ball Specialist

[Seathestars]

Sheedy was class, was it Ipswich I think were he had one disallowed and took it again and scored again.

I reckon Beckham would come out of retirement.

Mirallas is the best on the squad currently. Wish he would take more.

Baines should never take a free kick again.

Lukaku is fantastic at free kicks surprised no one has mentioned him.

 

[Toffeelover]

Hinchcliffe was pretty decent on dead balls as well.

Cuz he's a bit (current) Baines at times.

Also we need him in the box - unless he can figure out a way to cross it to himself in some situations...

Couldn't resist...

Imagine giving The Kop the finger..

Think about that lids..

Scoring that.. And giving The Kop.. The finger..

Every Blues dream.

Hinchliffe had a wonderful left peg, his corners were lethAl, right on top of the keeper.

Remember a free kick he scored at QPR in the early 90s, wonderful goal

I don't recall Gareth Barry taking any. Has he? Not really sure why I say this but he may have it in his locker. Although, at 36 and not proven, it must be right at the back of said locker.

Although there is always a place in my heart for the player who just kicks it as hard as they can towards the net. The wall is purely incidental, it's all about the laces. Yes I'm looking at you Stubbsy.

Taking into account the footwear and the football, Sheedy is better than Ronaldo.

He says with his blue tinted specs on.

Get Christiano to wear a pair of boots like Sheedy and get a footy out the museum, see how good he is then at free kicks!

Summerisle talked me into this. Was watching the video of our 84/85 F A Cup semi win over Luton, and it reminded me what it was like to have a dead ball maestro like Sheeds in the team. Oh to have somebody like him now.

Baines has provided some moments over the years but seems to have lost the knack. Who can be our Payet?

I was at that game , the man was a genius simple as that , I was once at bell field watching him put mitre delta case balls from a fair distance into a bin . He hit the target 4 times out of the 5 he hit . Wasn't blessed with pace , but didn't have to , he would bamboozle them with his passing range . Oh and I've got his shirt . Loved the guy

Yes it was. Oppisite corners too. Classic moment.

It's a confidence thing - Ross's free kick against Swansea - the game he had a skinhead and it pissed down - was top drawer. Mirrallas' v Villa at Goodison (2014?) was up there with the best I've seen as well as Bainsey's against Chelsea in the cup in some years back as well as those v West Ham.

Saying that about confidence, when Rom lined up Sunday I thought more chance he was going to hit me and I'm towards the back (& left) of the Gwladys!!!

So, I reckon the ability is there in the current team! But for me, there's only been one Sheedy! Getting old.
