One of my friends is a professional footballer (cf/winger) and he played in the 1st division of my country.
He used to play football with us and yelled on us when someone would miss sitters in 5 vs 5.
He would say: when you are 1 vs 1 vs a keeper, do WHATEVER you want, just don't shoot straight at him.
Aim at corners, or even miss the target for 5 meters, at least you have tried.
But please, don't ever shoot straight into a keeper.
That's the dumbest thing which you can do in that situation.
I mean, every footballer in any crappy 1st or 2nd division knows these basics of football.
Yet, then we have Dumbele who's every shot goes straight into a goalkeeper.
Even his goal (was it against Seville in La Liga?) was a similar crappy 1 vs 1 shoot straight into a gk which luckily ended as a nutmeg goal.
He sucks at football basics.
Yet, we had a sporting director who followed him for 1 year and said: he is the man. Pay 145m for him.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW?
