Title: Marking the goalie
Post by: zacc on May 10, 2015, 23:34:32
I'm trying to recall but nowadays find it hard to recall what I ate for brekkie but I'm sure marking goalies during set pieces/corners didn't happen? Notice it was going on in Cheaski v 'pool game today & couple of times in games yesterday. A player now blocks the view or actually is stopping him coming out to get the ball,is it a new tactic? ???

Kevin Nolan is the expert on that particular tactic.

They normally stick the smallest guy on the pitch on the keeper
