Doing a Warhurst


in football, the practice of converting a solid centre back into a striker, thus transforming them into an unstoppable goal machine.

named after the sheffield wednesday defender paul warhurst, who in 1993, was deployed as an emergency striker to replace the injured david hirst and mark bright. the resulting move saw warhurst score 12 goals in as many games and a call-up to the england national squad as a striker.
