Surely this is the greatest mystery of our time? Definitely poll worthy.
Is Fred Good or Bad at shooting?

Sometimes good, sometimes bad.

Schrödinger's Fred.
He has a terrible shot on him..... but on the other hand, he has quite a good shot on him.
Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit
milliseconds I tells yaIs Fred Good or Bad at shooting?
Yes.
Yes.
Same as his passing. It’s good. The problem is his first touch is so bad that he often needs to stretch to keep possession, pass or shoot, leading to the wild moments.
To be fair I guess this is also the answer to "Is Fred Good or Bad?"
and also the question "Is Fred?"
You could also do that about his passing, his ball to AWB yesterday was incredible and he has a habit of pulling off some great passes from time to time. I would say overall both are good but his mistakes make him look worse than he really is.
I’d have him above Bruno in the free kick pecking order.
Keane hates him though, so Fred has always got that going for him.
He's an enigma is our Fred
Put it this way, if Fred was the main character in Red Dead Redemption, it would be called Fred Dead Deademption.
If I were reporting directions that Fred had given I would say Right said Fred
Now this is poll worthy
I knew he was going to hit the target with that free kick before he took it, put it that way.
Well then you were wrong
He actually seems a pretty solid finisher when he gets the opportunity.
I'd trust him to hit the back of the net rather than a 10 yard pass sometimes

Ha! I knew someone would say that. I love a good smack of the woodwork. Especially the sexy inside edge. Those shots will always be on target to me.Well then you were wrong
He has good shooting technique but he can't consistently execute it.
He's not that good under pressure, but give him time he's usually pretty decent.
He has previously practiced taking free kicks at one point in his life at least once
He has, weirdly, been the best super sub we've had in ages.
Terrible but when you shoot as often as he does you're bound to have some decent attempts.
No different to Anderson who was also horrendous at shooting.

I don't know about that but every time he scored I couldn't help but laugh.
And they're both Brazilian, so they must, essentially, be the same person.
there is no mystery, he’s shite at it
Nobody really knows what he's good or bad at.
He's a fascinating player.
Love his new haircut.

I'd always been under the impression that Anderson was a goal threat when he played in Portugal, no idea where that came from, I was hugely disappointed when he came to us and seemingly couldn't hit the proverbial cow's arse.
Remember the pre season through ball to Sancho. His problem isn't his technique but that he's always in ultra hyper mode, its all in his head.
This is what I had in mind when I posted: couldn’t remember the exact phrase.
We got there together. You complete me.
Not just shooting, overall he can look like our best and worst player, all in the same game. The disparity between the good things he does and the bad is probably the biggest in world football. I love him, the absolute waster.
Maybe that's just Fred's existence in a nutshell. He can probably knock together a fine spread for a dinner party, but when he tries to make a bowl of cereal, he burns the house down.

He's your tomato sauce.
