luffram Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Normally the worst part of his game by a country mile. Against Forest a miraculous turnaround, yes his kicks were still being sliced towards the right hand side slightly... but his distribution from long downfield throws looked promising and more importantly even arguebly dangerous, Thoughts?

davenportram Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Bywater has always had an accurate throw on him, I remember being at Blaockpool and seeing him throw a ball 60 yards to Hulse. Also a 60 yard pinpoint throw to Commons at Preston. His throws are more dangerous than his kicks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against Forest a miraculous turnaround, yes his kicks were still being sliced towards the right hand side slightly... but his distribution from long downfield throws looked promising and more importantly even arguebly dangerous, Thoughts? I was watching Schmichael in the Leeds v Arsenal cup tie and his strength of character urging his team mates on was just like watching his dad all over again. His distribution and kicking were, in that game anyway, far superior to Bywater. To be fair, I thought Bywater had a fair game but his command of his area causes me concern, there seems to be a lack of communication with the centre backs. What was pleasing to see was that he did throw down the middle to Sav and Addison, later to Bailey, so this was an improvement on his sliced boot down field. I thought Porter had little support from the ref and did his best with a pair of arms cuddled around him most of the afternoon. Bywater puts the team in trouble with silly distribution throws to defenders which place them under pressure when we play against teams who close us down quickly. If he cuts this out, as he did on Saturday, then his game will improve considerably, as will my nerves:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkoRam Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Agree, his quick throws were a lot better and meant we could attack quickly before the oppo got back and in place. Hope we see more of them and less of the massive kicks that either go out or to their keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkRam Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I thought his throws were good but I noticed more second half, maybe cause I was in north stand, and he was extremely alert and wanted to start attacks. Our main problem was that the outfield players were jogging away and when bywater was looking to throw out no one was looking over there shoulder and giving him options. If we sort this out we could benefit alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 It's pretty strange that a footballer cannot kick a ball in a straight line, you would of thought it was something you would pick up early on in your career. I'd tell him to take a ball home with him in the summer and boot it down his garden, run and fetch it then boot it back again. Would get the hang of it in no time you would hope.

HenryKrinkle Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Wonder if Jose Luis Chilavert has a lad that plays in goal? If he's ote like his dad, he can take our freekicks and penalties as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
