Super Scotty Murray Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 I am not sure if this has already been said but I think it is high time Freeman got his hair cut. His form has been pretty poor ever since he got those long locks back and I am pretty sure his form improved last year after he cut his hair. I think the long hair might also explain why Luke always seem to have a good first first 20 minutes then disappears for the rest of the game. Clearly after a while it does start dragging him down and on Saturday it even started to affect his balance. We are all behind you Luke, but I think it is time you made this sacrifice for us and for the good of the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 I actually thought Freeman got a bit better as the game went on. ( @phantom I don't think he does really believe in the power of short hair. If that was so, El-Abd would be our best defender) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Port Said Red Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 Freeman looked better Saturday, he looks like he has come to terms with his new "stouter" physique. As for the hair, I say let "Samson" keep it long if it improves his playing.... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeman hasn't yet reached the consistent levels of last season, hence why his performances are being scrutinised. He was arguably our best player last season.

HLR Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 Maybe if Freezy gets his hair cut then he may be given more decisions in his favour - as when he throws himself to the floor dramatically, his long flowing hair wont be there to emphasise the act as much? Also, stopping flinging his arms out when he goes down would probably help. Different story for different thread though that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dastardly red Posted November 23, 2015 Report Share Posted November 23, 2015 His hair could actually weigh him down a bit, it's all about small margins isn't it? If freeman feels even .0001% heavier late in a game due to his hair then he's at a disadvantage (albeit a slight one) compared to someone with a more considered barnet. Also I imagine his vision is slightly compromised too. So not such a laughable question by the op. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny because, due to circumstances beyond my control, my spectating has been restricted to TV matches, and in all of those I would say Kodjia has been underwhelming, while Freeman has been decent and looked lively. That's not knocking Kodjia, who is obviously having a good season, but that's just what I've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean, THINK this post is serious - it is serious. If you look at the table below you'll see that the more streamlined the shape, the lower the drag coefficient. Freemans current head / hair shape is very inefficient. If, as you suggested, he had his hair cut, the drag coefficient would improve. Why don't you contact City and offer to be the official hair stylist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posting via android tablet btw) I thought you'd just found a quirky way of criticising his form (His performancisnt's)! Extremely disappointed with him this year, possibly because the bar was set so high....but he is still so out of shape it's unreal, and it is affecting his movement around the pitch. I honestly feel that Bobby Reid is the most unfortunate player in the squad. When he was playing in the Freeman role his performances were head and shoulders above what LF has produced so far, yet he gets ditched as soon as the suspension is up. Get the bulk off and I think you'll see him return to his best, but at the moment I think it's tough to try and justify his continued inclusion in the starting line up.
