Interesting. From the "bear hug" clip - do you think that should have penalised?

And, if more teams prepare much more coordinated set piece routines with 3-4 areas of blocking, how can officials adapt?
 
I've watched some of these this season and we don't truly know how rehearsed they are. Maybe more than we thought!
Every new 'trick' has to have some method of gaining the advantage, a blocking player or some element of confusion. There is a free kick they use which they did at Leeds, it was a quick flick and gave Billy Sharp a free shot at goal, it was saved but all the defence were stood their like guardsman in a line as he went around the back.. Clever
