Who on here has not seen Morsy dip his shoulder and twist around ?
Of course you have. It's his party piece.
But what about other players ways.
George Burley for instance would go bombing down the wing with his right arm up in the air just before he crossed the ball.
Eric Gates with a nifty turn, defenders leg stuck out, fall over it, penalty.
Alan Brazil chasing a ball with his head back like the Scottish chap in Chariots of Fire.
So come on give me memories of players that stick in your mind. [Post edited 3 Jun 2025 16:37]

Paul Cooper would also raise an arm to signify a shot was going wide and he had it covered. |  |

We call that Morsy trick his Zoolander turn, as we're fairly sure he only ever turns one way.
That reference will mean nothing if you've not watched Zoolander. |  |

Random ones that come to mind:
Berra wrapping his arms around attacker in front a la Titanic pose and somehow getting away with it. Also Berra looking completely knackered at all times and close to physical collapse but always being ahead of others and defending brilliantly.
Myles Kenlock running like a Thunderbird puppet. FAB! [Post edited 3 Jun 2025 17:10]

The Paul Cooper lean for penalties, great save record though :o) |  | | |

Richard Wright used to take goal kicks/free kicks and after he pinged it upfield he tilted his head to the side like a dog haha | | | |

To expand on Morsy's Morsy-isms, can we also appreciate how 'handsy' he is? I've always wondered if he's got a permanently dislocated little finger on one hand, it's always sticking out miles away from his other digits.
Oh, and Myles Kenlock's run, obviously. [Post edited 3 Jun 2025 17:31]

Frans Thijssen - tackling while on one knee and always, always coming away with the ball. |  |

Boncho spending years trying to execute an overhead kick goal before finally scoring one.
Santos spending his career kicking strikers up into the air. | |

Gates was his little finger flick celebration after scoring surely?
Steve Whitton with his ' I should have played in the 1950's' goal celebrations or lack of. | | | |

Also his sprint out of the tunnel, big leap in the air then the weird front-crawl swimming arms thing as a warm up. TWTD | |

Allan Hunter going back towards goal. Not the most elegant of runners, he’d sometimes do a 180 degree turn with the ball, leaving the forward in his wake.
David Linighan always led the team out looking like he was ready to murder somebody.
Colin Viljoen never kicked the ball before a game. He’d just do stretches. |  | | |

Clive Woods running a full back ragged for 20 or 30 minutes then inexplicably allowng a standing trap from a long pass "york" himself followed by a double teapot! |  | | |

I seem to remember that Wright used to point his index finger and thumb out perpendicular to each other with his other fingers curled up like a gun during his follow through for goal kicks. A little bit like this guy - 
Anyone else notice that? I used to comment on it with my brother all the time. |  |

I was thinking more of his cross field pass from left back in the left hand stands up & down the country |  |

Not during the match but I've always liked the way Chaplin sprints into the opposition half, puffs his chest out and pulls his cuffs down just before taking kick-off. Especially as he's probably the least intimidating looking player in the team.
Also enjoy the conclusion of the pre-match warm-ups being signified by Slicker's crossbar challenge attempt from the half-way line. |  | | |

Steve McCall had a funny run as well - like he never seemed to really stretch his legs. Bit of. Douglas run really! |  |

Gus Uhleenbeek - would always bomb down the wing and blast it into the crowd |  | | |

I’ve got vivid memories of Jim screaming for the ball with his arms and hands outstretched by his sides, about 80 times per game. |  | | |

The Fabian Wilnis step-over. Could see it coming a mile off from the stands!
Also the Glen Pennyfather turning circle - though I think that was due to him having one leg shorter than the other! |  |

The Tony Mowbray.
You put your left leg in, your right arm out
In out, in out, you shake it all about
You do the Tony Mowbray and you turn around
And that's what it's all about...
Oooooooooooh Tony Mowbray
Oooooooooooh Tony Mowbray
Oooooooooooh Tony Mowbray
Arm up, flag up, you're offside! |  |

I think Whitton is my favourite ever Ipswich player. He was just so weird; a 6’4 right winger with no pace at all who could barely run and jump but could smash it off either foot. The best debut performance of any player in our living history. Took corners and free kicks with either foot. Constantly looked like he had just come in from being on the p1ss. What a guy . |  |

I'd argue that an alternative sam morsy party piece is pointing at the ball every time he fouls someone. | |
