Manchester United’s Ashley Young gives a perfect example of how to not take a throw in during their match against Tottenham at White Hart Lane.

Young has recently been converted as a wing-back/full-back and although he is not used to taking throw-ins, should still be able to just swing the ball above his head with his hands and give it to one of his teammates.
