5 weird stereotypes in football

#5 Bald players are good headers of the ball

The only ever picture of Arjen Robben heading the ball

And this is the mother of all assumptions. If a mass of an object is high and it is continuously accelerating, then the force it exerts will also be high. This is physics. And if there is a bald guy among the many receivers of a lob pass, then he is most likely to head it before anyone else. This is bollocks.

For some reason, we tend to believe that bald heads have the ability to smash open the ball with their shiny heads like Poseidon splits open the sea with his trident. Maybe it is the fact that their hairless heads resemble the ball itself, so we tend to assume that, like magnets attracting magnets, football-looking bald heads attract the ball itself.

Have you ever seen Arjen Robben score a smashing headed goal? Neither have I.
