1. Every dead ball kick should be a shot. Penalties. Direct Free Kicks Inswinging corners. 70 yard bombs from your own keeper. and everything in between.
2. On dangerous free kicks, both a left footed and a right footed shooter should line up over the ball.
On penalties in regulation you want your specialist to take them and not the guy that is fouled unless he happens to be your specialist. How do you find your penalty specialist? He might not be your best player, but he has to be a starter. Good way of training it is after every practice divide the team into two teams do pks when everyone is tired. The first taker that misses his team loses. That is how you can apply real game pressure when taking them. In regulation time on pks you might one to try this. Have the taker face a near side then move to that side after his touch. The keeper will commit and as that is happening another teammate moves to the ball and passes it into the open side that the keeper left. It is a legal play. ---------
On inswinging corners a good keeper will get to those balls. However you can lure the keeper further and further out by first doing and out swingers. Plus a lot of field players have a chance at putting in an outswinger. The problem with an In swinger is that the taker is giving away where the ball is going when he takes it. Unless for example he can take an in swinger from the right side using his right foot. He hits the ball with his right foot by hitting the left side of the ball putting left moving spin on the ball making it in swing It is a hard skill to do it consistently. We had a player that could do it. He would take a few out swingers to set the keeper up for it.
Direct free kick stragedy Quick restart plays this is how you train for it A quick restart goal is worth 2 points. A regular goal is worth 1 point. The coach divides the team into 2 teams at the end of practice. Play for a half hour coach acts as a ref he calks every foul and some that are not fouls. On attack after a foul the taker makes a quick pass to teammates who make immediate runs after the foul. There is no relaxing after a foul. It is good for the defending team they learn that they can't relax after a foul. That is why it is a good attacking play because the defensive team has a tendency to relax after a foul. In a real game after a quick restart goal get wild with praise for the taker and the receiver after a quick restart goal is scored.
70 yard distribution from your own keeper. It won't happen if he punts the ball it is in the air too long. Unless you have two support players about 13 yards behind the target player on both sides who the target player can play the ball back to. Then they two touch the ball on goal. Better long distribution would be a half volley to a moving target player the ball is hit lower and faster then a punt and it is further then a keeper can throw it. The ball played into space for the target player to one touch on goal. A back can make a long fk to a a far side wing mid playing a 4-4-2 if he has the leg to make that cross. Then the wing mid takes a shot on goal or he makes another cross to a far side player moving to his near post.
Not punts. Dead balls. If Aston Villa win a free kick in their own half. I would have Guzan line up a shot (taking his time to gauge the wind and allow our big guys to get forward leisurely) and then I'd tell Brad to fire at goal.
I'm sure that with a strong wind blowing in the right direction I could still put an inswinging corner in the net regularly. An inswinging corner on net is a very scary corner for keepers.....all sorts of bad things can happen. No outswinging corner will ever go in. So you are telling your opponent "this corner isn't a shot".
Not much practice time if the first guy misses......and only 1 shot for 7 guys if the 7th guy misses? I'm not a coach but I think I'd ask "who wants to take them?" and then pick the best guy after 10 attempts.
I think if you were a coach you would have an idea of who the guy will be. When you know him, you will coach him on what to do and what not to do.
