Schemer? 09:03 - Jun 10 with 1159 views | tmiller12 | TWTD is the only place I ever see the word, can someone illuminate me on what it actually means in a football context or is Phil making it up as he goes along? I'm presuming it has something to do with a midfield role? |  | | |  |

Edit: I understand from our recent experience that all this may sound pie in the sky for a footballer, but some professional players can do all of those things and more!

Also: "Upper V Also "upper 90". Refers to the intersection of the crossbar and goalpost." Who knew? |  | |  |

Ah but you missed some classics. "The 6 - An abbreviation referring to the goal area" "The 18 - An abbreviation referring to the penalty area" "Boots - Soccer shoes" "Illegal arm infringement in the end zone. PK!" OK I nicked that last one from Soccer AM |  |
