Raising your arm before taking corners and free kicks

>raising your arm before taking corners and free kicks

>giving your teammate a thumbs up despite a shit pass

You know it's done for a reason, right?

greeting your team?

you don't know why they do it, do you?

Done so people know when you're taking the kick so they can start their runs

it's to remind your team mates they need to jump for the headers

but you also let the other team know you're taking the kick; it's a shit strategy

they're trying to get God on their side.

Measuring wind speed and direction, temperature, direction of the Earth's rotation, and the Coriolis effect

they dont know what kind of runs you are doing
if people dont know when you take the corner they might start the runs too early or too late

Team mates cannot use their eyes and see him taking the kick?

they got to know exactly when he will start the run up
its quite far away and there are people in between
trust me, it helps

I used to take corners. our signals

one hand up for near post
2 hands up for back post
grab balls for short corner

So if that was the case, why only some players put up their hands and most don't?

Because reasons

Air density as well to predict the intensity of the Magnus Effect.

Checking the side row for qts

Players can also watch the person kicking the ball so they know when to move.

Does that make sense?

>kick is up high
>need to jump

Jesus H. Christ, the beautiful game indeed

They don't know where they will move

This is like questioning why QBs shout before the ball is snapped. The defense can hear them, so why they'd do it?

calling dubs of course
