The napper...

Since we haven't seen a headed goal so far this season, here's a cracking couple from the past for those suffering withdrawal symptoms...

 

 

Laudrup scoring with a header was special because you didn't really expect it from him, much the same as Ronald de Boer who was a brilliant header of the ball though known more for setting up goals, he was a frequent scorer as well with his head and feet.

I was watching ManU v PSV during the week and it was 2-1 for PSV with a couple of minutes left. Manu got a corner and instead of firing it in to the the danger zone they took a short corner lost the ball and let PSV off the hook. I was calling them idiots and van Gaal was furious. There are times for short corners and times to throw it in and hope. A wing back throwing an early cross in to a in storming striker is one of the most dangerous moves in football and it would be a big pity for us to lose that in our armoury.

Should we be bragging that we haven't scored a header yet? I don't see what the achievement is. A headed goal from a corner is just as good and important as a 30 pass team goal.

 

I'd prefer if we worked on our corners into the box rather than the short ones we seem to persist with right now.

 

Maybe yes if we haven't been cuffing teams every week playing good football
