Classic headed goal today

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Get to the by line

Pull the ball back to the incoming striker and away from the defenders

Bang

Have it

It's not complicated

Some people never liked us scoring from headers. It wasn’t the right way.

Re: Classic headed goal today

Watching the game I was thinking how nice it was to see a left footer playing wide on the left. Giles was always looking to beat his man on the outside, which always seems more exciting to me rather than wingers playing on the wrong flank and having to cut inside all the time.

Get a decent ball pulled back like that and the defenders always struggle

Easy football

I don’t like it that, for much of the season, it almost looked like we couldn’t score anything else but headers.

You should like Isaak Davies then, he doesn't seem to have a wrong flank. He beat his man on the outside which led to the corner for the first goal, then did the same up the opposite side to set up the winner. Brilliant bit of play. The defender must have seen him burst up the right earlier and thought he's going to cut in now he's on the left but Davies made a mug of him and put over a perfect cross to round it off.

Me and TOBW have seen him pull off a similar move to set up a winner at Academy level (with a right footed cross) and I said at the time that I'm not sure how a defender is meant to deal with a two-footed player in that situation, you don't know where he's going or even where it's best to show him. Great to see him do it at Championship level. Great header from Moore too, as Sludge says.

Keepers rarely save those type of headers

Apart from Gordan Banks

Thought Davies showed great composure to look up and put the ball into Moore, he could have just crossed it into an area.

Here’s a question though, do you think he’ll get used as an impact player coming on as sub for the short term? Exploiting tired defenders who have been shifted about by the work load Mark Harris was doing?

Good question as coming on seems to be Harris's strength too.

I'd use the same tactic again for now and start Harris, Davies on that showing should will get his chance.
