I liked it. It’s a horrible ball to defend, very easy to scuff a header. I say do it in open play too.
I'd like to see us utilise the same routine from corners. Pack the six yard box and throw the big up and under into the mix.
Back when Sam Janus was super hot stuff. Yikes.
Did it against Newcastle as well. I think both times we've ended up with possession in their half.
100%. Its embarrassing and needs to be knocked on the head.
As does Tarky taking goal kicks
Just stupid stuff isnt it and it absolutely winds me up.
Whilst we're at it, anyone who throws it backwards should be fined 1k a throw. Jake is absolutely shocking at doing it.
And don’t get me started on airline food!

The thing is, IIRC when the ball was punted in the air I dont think more than one Everton player got near it.
The execution was poor and it shouldn't have been that far downfield if we were to retrieve it.
No doubt that squeaky voiced Bootle divvy will be highlighting it from now on to *prove* his long ball theory of Everton that he keeps on hammering away on because his best mate got loads of stick from Everton supporters.

Is it any worse than playing it back to Pickford for him to boot up the field?
imo yes it is mate. I think it screams "we're going to play hoof ball straight from second 1".
I genuinely don't like it. I don't mind mixing it up, playing direct when it works but it makes me cringe thats the first thing we're doing from kick off.

To be fair that's the genius of it: it screams to the opposition that we're going to play hoofball so they think "ello, here come the cloggers" but then we unleash our unique brand of silky one touch football and they don't know what's hit them, it's very smart.
We need Freddie steward under them high balls
