Match of the Day pundit Joe Hart has identified Morgan Rogers' free-kick technique as 'confusing' yet 'special'. The Aston Villa midfielder stunned Leeds United with a stunning strike from 20 yards out, leaving many to question how he managed it. According to Hart, Rogers' unorthodox approach to the ball is often misunderstood by fans.
'Rogers uses an unusual angle and trajectory when striking the ball,' said Hart. 'He drops his shoulder down low and strikes with the laces of his boot, rather than using his instep like most players.'
This technique appears to be paying off for Rogers, as he netted twice against Leeds United, including the aforementioned free-kick. The former England goalkeeper praised Rogers' composure in front of goal.
'Morgan stays calm and focused, even when faced with a wall of defenders,' said Hart. 'He knows exactly where to strike the ball to achieve the desired result.'
While some may find Rogers' technique perplexing, Hart believes it's an asset that sets him apart from other players.
'Rogers' free-kicks are special because they're not just about raw power - he has a great understanding of the trajectory and spin required to bend the ball past even the most determined defenders,' said Hart.
Despite his impressive strike against Leeds, Rogers is unlikely to become a regular threat for Villa from free-kick situations. However, his unorthodox technique does make him an intriguing player to watch.

I mean, can you imagine being in Morgan Rogers' shoes? He's like a magician out there with that crazy free kick technique of his! Joe Hart says it's 'confusing' but I think it's genius 
. Who needs the same old power shot when you can curve the ball around defenders? 
It's all about finesse and control, you know? And let's be real, who doesn't love an underdog story? Rogers might not become a regular threat from free kicks, but his weirdness is what makes him exciting to watch. Plus, it's awesome that Hart recognizes his skills and is giving him the props he deserves! 
i mean, who drops their shoulder down low like that? but you know what joe hart said and i kinda agree with it... it's not just about brute force, its about finesse and knowing where to strike the ball 
his confidence is unshakeable, even when faced with defenders who wanna block his shot. he's like a free kick ninja 
would love to see more of him on the pitch 
It's so cool how he drops that shoulder and uses the laces on his boot to strike the ball in a way that most players don't. 
The fact that it's not just about brute force, but more about understanding where to place the ball for maximum effect is genius! 
️ Can't wait to watch more of his unorthodox style in action! 
I mean have you seen this kid's free kicks? They're like something out of a video game! 
I've been saying it for ages, but Joe Hart is right - Rogers' technique is definitely... unusual 
. But seriously, the lad's got skill for days and his composure in front of goal is top-notch. It's all about finesse, you know? The angle, the spin, the whole nine yards 
. And I gotta say, it's refreshing to see a player who doesn't just rely on raw power 
. He's like a magician out there with that ball 
. Of course, we won't see him taking free kicks all the time for Villa, but still, it's worth watching him try 
on the other hand, rogers' composure in front of goal is def something to be praised 
And then Joe Hart said it's because of his weird technique. Like, I get it, not everyone is gonna be a free-kick master like Messi or something 
. And Hart said it's not just about the power, but also about knowing where to strike the ball so it curves past defenders... yeah, that makes sense 
Still, if it works for him, right? The guy seems super calm and focused, which is impressive. And yeah, his goal against Leeds was so cool! Can't wait to see more of this from him 
It's like he has a magic trick or something! Interesting 
, Joe Hart is totally right about him being special - I mean, it's not just about smashing the ball with power, it's about finesse and control 
. I mean, anyone can use the laces of their boot if they've got practice in, right? It's not exactly rocket science. And what's with all this fuss about 'composure' and 'focus'? You think it's that hard to stay calm under pressure? 
. i think rogers' calmness in front of goal is a major key to his success - he's got that cool composure that lets him execute his unorthodox technique flawlessly 
but as a fan, it's exciting to see something new and unique on the pitch 
. His free-kick technique? Special, yeah... but also kinda confusing 
. And that composure in front of goal? Unbeatable 
.
.
? At least Hart thinks he's special or whatever
