Just seen the Fulham player miss the last pen against leeds. Honestly dont understand some players. Seemed to take a while to focus on the kick then tamely hits it to the keeper's left and he saves.

 

If it's a shit or bust pen, pick your spot and put your laces through it. Dont try and be billy big bollocks with the slow run up and placement is what Id be telling my players.

Of course none of us know how the pressure these pro's face when taking penalties affects but it never ceases to amaze me how badly so many take them....tame pens and down the middle so often.

 

We were always taught as kids to put them firmly into the corners of the goal where keepers can't reach...aim for that inside side netting and hit them firmly.

 

Yet you see so, so many pens that are just so tame and easily within keepers reach.

Shevchenko against us in Istanbul. That never ceases to amaze me how awfully shit that penalty was especially given the enormity of the kick. It actually made me question if it was a rigged game a few times.

Think the Dudek wonder save played a part in that. He must have been second guessing himself after that. The mind fuck us all up even the best

He took a guess as Dudek was side to side but still an awful penalty.
