Hi Michael, I thought you were a good buy when you came over from Sheffield and reckon you´ve made a decent impression when you´ve come on. I would like to see you given a bit of a run in the side. I know you´re a bit of a free-kick expert and I was wondering if you had any advice because I take them for my Sunday side. Cheers from Trev
Thanks for that Trev. I´ve enjoyed it at Stoke. It´s a great club and the lads have made me feel really welcome. The thing about taking a free-kick is that it has to be done in a way that suits you. I think too many people try to copy famous free-kick experts and it just isn´t right for them. What´s needed is a bit of trial and error to work out your own technique. The basics are all about timing and concentration. Don´t just try to hit the ball as hard as you can because it´s more important to strike the ball cleanly. Practice on your own and don´t worry about hitting it hard at all. Relax and you´re less likely to miss hit it.
