    Bicycle Kick Comment

    This comment has really annoyed me since its introduction but only now (cos I'm bored while waiting for a tardy gas-man) have a decided to post.

    Success for this action (usually "blah closely marked" "blah tries spectacular bicycle kick") appears to be followed comments like "X is clean through" or (not seen it for a while but....)"X recovers the ball". Failure is usually a tackle or a block.

    I consider the chance of someone trying a bicycle kick recovering the ball to be negligible. It would, to me. appear to make more sense if "X tries to turn his marker" or "X spins and turns" or anything similar was used.

    Unfortunately, I've not captured or noted the exact text so I've paraphrased.

    I'm bored and I've no real desire to suggest or demand a particular change but please change it as comment seems to have no relevance to the action or following actions

    Edit - PS. If a dev come up with this as a favourite comment then I's suggest reapplying it to an event that produces a shot a bit like the half-volley scenario. But it should be a rare one. That will keep them happy.
