Remember when the player kicked it out for a corner rather than a throw in because these were so deadly😂😂
😂😂😂 surely this isn't true??
I was there, it's true. Boaz Myhill for Hull
Dean Windass got booked too for warming up in front of Delap when he was about to take a throw in
It’s 100% true he had a couple seconds to decide and kick it out for a corner instead 🤣
Also a spurs player can’t remember who he gave a corner away instead of a throw in !!!
Rory Delap's long throws got the same level of attention as a Beckham or Cristiano free kick. Special talent
If they were like a Cristiano FK then most of them would hit the first defender or go over the bar for a goal kick.
@@burnaardnufc3173 is right haha, Delap's throws moved like they had GPS
@@burnaardnufc3173😭 someone started watching football post Real Madrid CR7
@@burnaardnufc3173that’s why he has 64 career fks init
Yes, in 900 attempts@@Jabar0t
They even added the giant throw in fifa specific for Delap during his days at Stoke
That expression ‘yeah but could he do it on a cold wet night at Stoke’ needs ‘with Rory’s throw in’s’ added on 😂
What an amazing innovation...Only in England .. smh
@@043ash what is the purpose of this comment?
Christian Fuchs was also a giant throw in specialist. Any set piece tbh.
I love how he didn't think to mention that he could do that before he had a bet with the lads going
The secret impresses no one. What you use it for is everything.
I love the thought that no one has the idea for the bet that day and he never shows this talent and Stoke never become ‘Stoke’
He did. He was told to stop being so stupid
Footballers are not the smartest
As a Liverpool fan, watching Liverpool play against that Stoke side was a nightmare. There was one game in particular I swear the ball didn't touch the ground for a good solid 5 minutes.
I remember that game at Stoke in 2009/10, we named a very strange team. A back five plus two defensive midfielders. We were winning for most of the game, then we got caught out by a late corner and it finished 1-1.
They knew how to rattle the big teams, especially at their ground.
@@WanderingChin Looked it up. I think it's the 2-0 game I was thinking of. The first goal comes from a throw-in into the box from towards the halfway line. 😆
I loved Gerrard’s last game for the club lmao
@ob1853 Gerrard was the only one to score for Liverpool that game, it pretty much summed up his career, carrying Liverpool while being let down by his teammates.
@@TheBonecrusherz The stoke players let him score. They slowed down when they saw who was through on goal
Tony pulis is a underrated manager
1) sit behind the ball
2) run
3) kick it forward and run after it
4) score
5) brexit
6) shut up
Shit at Wednesday
😂😂
He can't lead a top 4 side to be champions,same like Walrus. But they're good for sides fighting relegation
Yh when it was long throws every team knew it was a problem,those Cold windy nights at Stoke😂😂
This was a brilliant gimmick and while it lasted, Stoke gave everyone bit. Stoke did a lot right for a few seasons. What a shame that they faded so badly.
It's still part of football today. Some version or variation of it is.
Wenger probably have nightmares about it still 😂
@@austinedeclan10very rare people score from them though tbf
@@austinedeclan10 exactly, I think Pep hired a pelota coach from Spain for throw in coaching at City? Right after Klopp hired some former rugby and basketball coaches just to train throw ins from all over the pitch
They were in the prem for a decade. But their legend lives on.
Been saying it for years the long throw in the box is UNDERRATED. Nowadays nobody prepares for it so thats a great option to get a good chance against pretty much any opponent.
why is it not trained?
@jouisimo5701 Because it's very chaotic and teams nowadays even bottom table try to play with much more control rather than just chucking balls in the box from throw ins or crosses from the wings.
The flatness of the throw was really the genius of it. Even when it became well-known as Stoke's attacking weapon, teams couldn't practice for it like they do for corners or free kicks. No one could do that long, flat delivery on any other team, so for years teams had no answer for it.
i'm not into football at all but that goal off the throw in was just aesthetically pleasing to see
What's crazy, I remember having a Premier League Sticker Book from 1998/ 99... and I remember Rory Delap being one of Derby County's best players, like he had a section written about him. Fast forward to 2009, I see him playing vs Arsenal, and I was thinking, this can't be the same dude.
Was he doing throw ins like that in the 90s?
@@sp7186 he must have kept it secret because he never did it at Derby.
@@sp7186 LOL no... that's the point I am making lmao
@@benchamp Exactly.
It's one of the few things I'd advise any young professional to practice as it's such a useful weapon if you need to nick a goal. Delap was the best I'd ever seen at it
Really ? Throw ins ?
@@mikijwa watch Delap highlights. Throw Ins became more dangerous then Freekicks or Corners
He was a javelin thrower, it's not about practising throw ins
@@SK-do3um How do you think he got good at javelin throwing? Could it be by practicing it?
@@mikijwacome on bro... That shit was like an unchallenged cross to the penalty box
Rory Delap's long throws are legendary
the Icelandic national team has adopted this a lot as well through the years, including our 2016 win against england in the euros one of our goals came from one i believe
The pain still haunts me
Where are you now? We need you back
@@krisclark8619 Transitional period, young team coming in with a lot of our vets retiring/coming home to play for their boyhood clubs
@@KongTheVikinggood luck in future, was painful in 2016 but a great set of fans
@@liamdawson8558 Was a hell of a summer to be a 16 year old footy fan in Iceland
Rory was a legend, met him once at a gig at that time, great guy with the best throw in ever in the Premier League, still hasn't been matched! 🇮🇪
Delap with the magical hands. I miss him
That’s what she said.
Stoke city lives in every epl fan's heart. Lowkey we all miss this club in epl.😊
No we don't.
@@siddharthreddiar3353 you don't mate.
@@nikhilpanwar3126 Nobody misses Stoke. The throw-ins from Delap was the only cool unique thing. Other than they played garbage football with absolutely garbage fans.
I still remember the fans booing Aaron Ramsey when he came back after breaking his leg in a career threatening tackle from Ryan Shawcross. What kind of classless fans boo players whose career almost ended in your own ground.
Nobody misses Stoke. Stop looking at it with rose tinted nostalgia goggles. The fans used to celebrate when their players injured opposition players. Ryan Shawcross was at the center of that. They were a stain in the Premier League. Horrible club with horrible fans.
@@astrojeetsilence steet shitter. Stoke.
Under Hughes they began to play some good football with Bojan, Arnatouvic etc but it couldn't be sustained. Agree that stoke fans are fucjing terrible and I'm from stoke
Stoke basically had a corner
Always remember an opposition defender going to clear the ball out of play over the sideline near the cornerflag... he hesitates and then kicks it out for a corner 😂
Smart defending.
The Delapidater!!
A kick is up then down these throws were like bullets that just came down... Brilliant!
Big Sam was wrong about the reason the long throw is such an asset -the real reason is that it's much easier to win a throw-in than a corner or free kick!
So u know better then papa Sam
There are even more reasons.
Most teams cannot abuse this asset.
Long throw-ins are harder to defend than corners.
And no offside with throw-ins.
Nail on the head there highlighting that it was more than just distance it was the technique to get it in that straight line trajectory that was so devastating and still haunts Arsene Wengers dreams
It's like a negative Pep and Sir Alex interview.
I will never forget those days 😍 PL was even better than it is now in my opinion ❤️
I bet Rory was making those £50 bets.......
I couldn't stand Delap and Stoke. Arsenal's kryptonite 😂
Also Big Sams Bolton team :D
@@MishalMaganlal hated them too 😂
Very trueee
I’m glad he said this because I always felt that delap was around for years and years before his long throw just appeared!!
My son does this for his u16's team, 7 assists this season from throw in's.
It's not because it's more controllable with your hands than feet that this is a great tool....
It's because the launch point is almost a full 7 feet higher , meaning the degree at which the ball is coming at is much flatter, and the ball doesnt go in an arc - meaning its MUCH harder for the goalie to assess and come to collect
Delap's throw was so incredible that I never even considered it a "Dirty" tactic- if Man City had someone that could throw like that, they should utilise it. The flat trajectory was lethal.
Every throw in was especially a corner.. I don’t get why teams don’t work on a player taking long throws, it causes so much chaos in the box
The improvement in his contracts earned an estimated 3mil over the course of his career! Absolutely nuts!
Something that will probably never be seen again. I remember it going in flat like an exocet missile. Teams were coming to the Brit and kicking it behind to concede corners rather than, throw ins, and famous goalkeepers walking off at half time being consoled by teammates because they were in tears. Unforgettable. ❤ PS my first time in the Maldives, I got off the boat at the island. With a Stoke baseball cap on, the drum band on the pier arranged to get us, stopped playing and all, Started mimicking Rorys throw in. Off the southern tip of India, it had gone global (true)
The dude is a legend. What remarkable throws those were.
I have never forgotten him, while I have many great players. Just because his long throws
he'll forever be remembered
My highschool team had two deadly long throwers Left Back and Right Back so everything within the opposition half they would throw it in, so many goals came from it
Managers were telling players to send it out to the corner . My grand kids won’t believe this story when I tell them . When throwing are more scary than corner kicks . Crazy 😅
Any player who can do something than no one else can is just so valuable. For example, Neymar shows off that he's got really fast feet as a kid... he ends up being hunted for by the top teams for £100m+, Beckham shows that he can bend a kick really well, he becomes the top watched player on earth at the time... while stuff like this can be just, if not more valuable, because it's something that just needs to catch the opposition out once, and your in. Alternatively, they then have to change their preparation to adapt to you. How would they train for Delap's long throws? Have one of those ball launchers lobbing balls for half an hour, or just a guy kicking the ball as straight as he can to mimic a throw.
It throws them off their stride, which is just so valuable to any team.
I remember having to play against players with long throws. it was a pain in the ass!
Rory Delap - in Ch'ship Manager always a safe sleeper acquisions. Young, cheap and getting very good fast.
As Chelsea fan, I remembered the horror of that throw. We never conceded any, because giants like Terry and Ivanovic were pushing down the strikers instead of trying to win the ball.
I remember when i used to play Fifa11&12 anytime the camera get to Delap to take a throw in the angle changes for only him it was amazing
Tony pulis was a great manager. Stopped watching after he was sacked and mark twat hughes came in. Also just checked he didnt leave with mutual consent the owners daugher at the time didnt like him.
Oh the legendary gibbon-armed Rory Delap
What is hilarious was that when people feared Beckham for spot kicks, people feared Delap for his throw-ins. They were so perfect, they just looked like a perfectly lofted ball.
Throw in like a cornet or free kick
I remember interviews of opposing managers whining about this long throw. It’s a good weapon to have to be honest. If it works, it works. I am surprise, more teams don’t use long throws like this.
Rory delap was a game changer with thus it was such a threat
It’s like having a corner from the touch line. I used to love watching the opposition panic every time Delap took a throw in.
COYMP
Never be another Rory Delap
It was more productive than a corner or free kick for Stoke at that time. I really liked Stoke during there EPL run. They hade some brilliant players and runs in Europe.
Mick McCarthy vs USSR Euro 88 💪
Rory delap, the street will never forget 😂
Are you from Stoke? I used to visit there in the early 2000's when my makes went to uni. They lived on Cornwallis Street. At the end of the road was a take away called Kebab Corner, is it still there? It did the best Donna Kebabs I've ever had.
As an Arsenal (I imagine any non-Stoke fan really), throw-ins from Delap were terrifying.
And no, Lionel Messi could NEVER do it on a cold wet Tuesday night at the Britannia Stadium (now currently the bet365 Stadium).
Never put a bet on stoke being over 1.5 corners back in the day 😂
I LOVED this tactic and therefore always rooted for Stoke to hang in there despite being a Spurs fan.
A cold night at Stoke was the ultimate challenge!
I can’t think of Rory Delap’s throw ins without seeing a vision of Arsene Wenger in his post match interviews 😂. Inseparable memories!
i don't know how stoke got relagated but i sure got that they were the toughest team in their home games u might win but with hell of struggle for sure
Rory Delap was a menace with that long throw.
In that first season, his throws contributed to an outrageous number of Stoke goals.
We have a similar thing at swfc when Will Vaulks takes a throw, they are immense.
Remember Wenger hated Delap for this that he demanded kick-ins. The Arsenal defence at that time had a hard time dealing with these throws and goals got conceded
I'm yet to see another player in this era that can do killer throw ins like him
Very clever move with rory
You should watch pratama arhan from indonesia, he become famous for his throw in too, just like rory
Had him in my fantasy team for these throw-in assists!
For me. Rory Delap is a Premier League hall-of-famer!!!
Once Rory retired, that's when Tony Pulis career came to an end.😊
His son plsyed for us last season. Class lad
That throw was a menace to society
I was watching Stoke City at the time, just to see a Rory Delap throw 😅
As a man united fan, going on a cold Tuesday night at stoke was a nightmare, not to mention Delap's Legendary trows🥺🥺
You either come home with a stalemate or broken legs 🤣
As a gooner; glad to see the back of Rory 😂
As an Arsenal fan.... this short triggered my PTSD😱🫣
It some ways his throws is a "set piece" tatic no different from a free kick specialist.
Watching Arsenal play at Stoke was always hilarious
I heard that on the inside of his shirts he'd have sown in a golf towel, or something. So he could dry the ball.. Clearly away grounds wouldn't throw him a towel to dry the ball. So he'd bring his own.
I really want to see a team based around Rory Delap. Everyone's at minimum 6 foot 4, leaps like a salmon, I want every player capable of driving up the pitch and able to do some skill in order to win a throw-in. That would be majestic
Them Stoke throw ins would put teams in to panic mode top 4 included
We had Andy Legg some years ago for Birmingham think he was known for the longest throw back then and we had Kevin Francis up front
Strange thing Rory was like 29/30 in that season they got to the premiere league so took a long time to utilise that talent
This short hits different when you are a gunner. Wenger was absolutely stumped. Then Hull started doing it.
And the story about Pulis is several of his players said he agitated and egged them to hurt arsenal players before the game ryan shawcross broke aaron ramsey's leg and the whole country defended aaron ra- nope- Stoke.
It's pretty funny that Delap played most of his premier league career with Southampton and Derby and got to 32 before he started taking long throws. Maybe he just never thought to tell anyone he could do them before that
In Indonesia national team we have boy name Pratama Arhan. His throw is insane, always cause problems to the opponent post. Now he play in Suwon FC , Korean League. He just 23.
Did this 2 weeks ago, keeper knocked it in for me
It's crazy that they had 3 set plays from his throw-in. He could go far-post, near-post or right in the middle.
No other player has made fans get excited about a throw in more than a corner kick
Rory Delap, Premier league legend... Yeah I said that
I fondly remember Wenger's salty tears about this tactic.
Didn’t he say it “anti m-football”? He was just mad cos he couldn’t combat it.
The man with a Hand Canon
This tactic is needed.
based Pulis x Delap x Stoke
I swear I remember a match were they moved the side hoardings in a bit so he couldn't take a long run up
The two long-ball maestros talking ball 👌🏻
Im gonna get real good at this
Bring back long throw ins!
