Great player, you know you're good when you can go to the camp nou and single handedly dominate the midfield I'd still rate a fully fit Iniesta as highly as anyone, even though he's getting on a bit now. And I don't ever remember him trying to head a ball that was on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also dominated against Brasil in an international friendly; it's a shame he's never stayed fit and delivered that consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cautions for unsporting behaviour in Law 12 include uses a deliberate trick to pass the ball (including from a free kick) to the goalkeeper with the head, chest, knee etc. to circumvent the Law, whether or not the goalkeeper touches the ball with the hands Good info otherwise what would stop a player flicking it up and heading back to keeper? Wondered why I never saw that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He headed it back to the keeper like that, the law makers realised they'd left a loophole and changed the law to put a stop to that sort of thing. Nah - it was a pre season friendly for us. It was Darren Wassall, heading back to Steve "cod-eye" Sutton. If I remember, Sutton rolled it out to Short, who deliberately flicked it up and Wassall headed back to Sutton.
