At one point, unless I mis-heard, Mick Mills was berating Sears for his awful free kicks and the fact that he is wasting them yet being the first to grab the ball. MM said he didn't care how well he does them in training, that during matches they are shocking.
It is bizarre that no player grabs the ball off Sears, or that Lambert doesn't tell him where to go after wasting some great opportunities. |  |

Yep, he’s had his chances. Someone else should’ve had a go yesterday.
GWION would be by pick. |  |

I never feel more certain that we won't score from a situation when Sears sets up to take a free kick.
I'd genuinely feel more confident if Thomas Holy walked up to have a crack. |  |

It is a shame that we do not have a skilled free-kick taker at the moment as we have had some good opportunities in the early part of the season. Sears has not looked like scoring, but when I look elsewhere in the team yesterday I struggle to identify who would be my next choice. It could just be that Sears is top of a list of not very good free-kick takers. Last year we were fortunate to have Garbutt who gave you a feeling that when we we had a free-kick it represented a realistic opportunity. Perhaps something to work on in training. |  | | |

Tell James Wilson that Luke Chambers is standing near the top corner and he'll pick it out no problem. |  | | |

Thought Lancaster was ok with free kicks before he was injured. Not in the team atm obviously | | | |

Indeed, someone else has to grab the ball now.
From a purely technical point of view I’d go Dozzell. |  |

Didn't see yesterday's but if he's still taking them after the Wigan debacle then it's a farce.
Bizarre, baffling, strange. All words that are perfectly acceptable to use to describe Freddie Sears taking attacking free kicks and also, as you say, that no one has taken over responsibility. |  |

Sears had a couple of poor ones against Wigan that he lofted over. Half decent effort against Rovers which the keeper saved and one yesterday into the wall. I think with the likes of Bishop breaking from midfield we’ll win freekicks in dangerous areas, but I’m not convinced we’ve got anyone who will make the most of them.
I wouldn’t mind seeing Ward have a crack. Norwood when he’s fit will fancy them, pretty sure he scored a couple of good ones for Tranmere. |  |

Suppose our Mick had too by the law of average get something right as he started his commentary stint by declaring that he had watched Hawkins for a whole 10 minutes last week and he is not the man to lead our attack !! |  | | |

What is wrong with you? You have gone numbskull. 1st it was live for Shambert, then criticising Didz and now you are rating Gwion. FFS MATE |  |

Sears 1 on 1 with only a keeper to beat doesn’t fill me with confidence, let alone a wall and a keeper |  |

Dozzell would be the obvious choice, takes a great free-kick. Am surprised he's not taken any so far. |  | | |

Lankester to be the obvious choice when we are playing him....hopefully soon | |
