20 | Bernardo Silva - 2023/24

[Eccles Blue]

Bernardo is a great player and deserves some kudos for his bravery in taking a penalty last night.
He has enough in the bank as far as I am concerned to be allowed to make the odd mistake.
He will be doing enough castigating himself without us piling more on his shoulders. IMHO

Seen a lot of people calling that penalty a Panenka and I'm not having it. It was a shit penalty but he put plenty of power behind it. I hate seeing people try and frame it as some sort of arrogant act that he only did to stroke his own ego.

I never knew there were so many people that don't know what a panenka is

Mad isn't it? When did it become a blanket term for any shot down the middle?

You of all people should know, to be fair!

Plenty of power? You're joking, right? I've had more powerful farts.

A panenka has to be down the middle AND a chip. The chip is a pretty major part of it as it plays a role in deceiving the keeper, much like a pitcher throwing a change-up in baseball. Please do not kill me for bringing up baseball lol

 

[footballmanager]

the keeper was fully expecting it but i refuse to blame a player for missing a pen, it can happen to anyone. we needed to avoid getting there but once kdb and haaland were subbed off our attack vanished
