Would it be better to have one player taking Free Kicks?

I can't help thinking we don't score enough free kicks or at least as many as we should and feel that the reason is too many players are taking them.

In my view the first free kick for a player tends to be a sighter the problem is with players taking turns it results in 3 or 4 sighters per match and no goals.

We need to just assign one player to take them same as penalties

DIfferent FKs are suited to different players mate.

No, it’s more horses for courses with free kick. Far out shots for Rashford (because he scored one once) and close ones for Bruno. I’d like to see Pogba take more.

So you think Fred will eventually score from free kick if you let him try enough?

Not scoring enough free kick because those takers are lacking confidence. They should practise during training, not during game time. It is beneficial having 2 takers, 1 left foot 1 right foot, to confuse the wall. Predictability is the last thing that you want.

That free that Rashford hit against Chelsea was actually unbelievable.

We basically have two free kick takers if we're only talking about taking shots at goal. Bruno for closer ones and Rashford for longer attempts.

It's not like we have 4 or 5 players constantly taking turns.
