    Than being told 'when they get a free kick I want you to lay on the floor' except maybe laying in the floor and watching the ball floating over you into the back of the net

    Scoring an overhead kick form 40 yards out and being dead proud of yourself only to find out that some bloke off the BBS used to do that for fun from FIFTY yards when he was younger?

    It's stupid. How many times have we seen a free kick hit under a wall at Oakwell? I don't think I've ever seen it. So for me, it's a waste of a player. Better off stood on the halfway line.

    Maybe they just needed a rest? High press game takes it out of the players. What better, than during a set piece to get a quick lie down?

    Herbie Kane scored one for Hull against Birmingham just before we signed him.

    I actually think on this occasion, it hindered the goalkeeper too.

    It's the sort of thing Earl the Winger would have done.
