Stuart Reid

I spent my summer pouring through my set-piece folders and research to create what I believe to be a fantastic set-piece resource. Created for beginners and people already working in the game alike. Thread of what the course includes below: apfa.io/set-piece-anal…

@androofrench I feel there's something else happening there. He's been very very good pretty much every season before joining Watford.

Feel sorry for Formose Mendy. He didn't ask to be hyped up as much as he was by the #watfordfc recruitment team. Had a stinker yesterday, but has played only three full 90 minutes in the last calendar year - and a total of 493 minutes in that time.

Was great to spend some time with Umir this week helping on this. Well worth a read!

Anyone know why the GW1 MLS games aren't up on WyScout yet? Considering the first games were played on Friday I'm surprised they're not up yet...

Delighted to be joining CF Montreal for the 2026 MLS season! With that, I have no more availability to take on more work until the end of the season.

@htomufc It's a gamechanger!

@From_The_Wing I didn’t even know there was one! 😂

Back to it. 🔜

@JordanWiemer That's from 110 aerial duels

@From_The_Wing Haha not at all. What’s the volume like? I think I saw him head the ball 3 times over 2/3 games.

Had the chance to watch some of Saba Goglichidze over the weekend. He’s aggressive, if there’s a heavy touch he’s jumping into to try and make a play on the ball. Quite mobile, definitely not a static defender. Biggest pro looks to be his physical endeavour and willingness to go for the ball. Looked okay in the air, but I didn’t get a great sample size there. A little tunnel visioned at times. Something he’s going to have to get better at in this league. Still a bit to learn positionally IMO. Looks ideal for an outside RCB in a three, we’ll have to see who comes in at HC now.

Aris Limassol Set-Piece goal this weekend ☑️ Bradford SP goal this weekend ☑️ CD Castellon SP goal this weekend ☑️ Hull SP goal this weekend ☑️ Kaiserslautern SP goal this weekend 🔜? No pressure...

@louorns He'd need an ESC which we're out of no (unless we do the Udinese workaround)?

@AlBrown82 Nah, it's not taking into account goals, just shots and xG from set-pieces (and direct FKs should be relatively low xG)

@From_The_Wing Does the fact we (St Johnstone) have scored several direct free kicks make a big difference? What adds to the total xG for a set piece?

It's not the prettiest or most indicative image but figured some of my followers might find it interesting. Compared the set-piece xG difference and SP shot difference from 44 European leagues this season so far. Higher + more to the right = better.

@bolden_jd Hi Jamie - aggregate totals!

@From_The_Wing Is this per set piece Stuart or in aggregate? Thanks for posting this, v interesting

@From_The_Wing Where do Tottenham plot on here roughly?

Add Kurt Zouma playing in Romania to the list.

One of my favourites parts of transfer windows is checking out the "Latest Transfers" page on Transfermarkt and being like "I did not know they were playing there" like wdym Serge Aurier was playing in Iran and Zach Clough was playing in Malaysia

@TheTransferFlow Also think we're gonna be in for a bumper window for the Championship. 6 points between 3rd + 13th with a number of the sides that were expected to be "up there" struggling. Would imagine a lot of sides are looking at having a big window to try and capitalise on this.

The rumours are going to get spicy, and a weird amount of them are going to be true thetransferflow.com/p/expect-way-m…

@R_by_Ryo One of the best seasons! I rewatched the whole thing recently, so good.

@From_The_Wing oh i'm rewatching season 1 again! (i looove this show)

i've been watching agents of shield on my PC this entire time while the draw is on my tablet lol...
