Free kicks aren't the same as shooting from open play. They require a completely different technique.

Why don't we stick Igor in goal actually. He's tall and good on the ball so why not.

So you'd rather someone else, who we have no idea if they even practice free kicks, take them than the player who hit the bar and forced a good save from his last two and clearly has shown in training he's good at them.

Actually incorrect. Groß is one of the most accurate corner takers in the league, finding our players the most out of any player in the league from corners I remember seeing in an article a while back

Yeah and because of that one free kick people think he was a great taker. In reality he wasn't but took so many he scored a few memorable ones.
