Ederson Moraes - 2017/18 performances

[MillionMilesAway]

How do you become a regular penalty taker if you are not allowed to take your first?

Good question. I'd guess the manager announces it in some way. Or you take one at 0-0, not at 3-0.

 

[Delphinho]

If he takes a penalty and scores it, why is it disrespectful? Just shows that he`s a good penalty taker

 

[ancoats]

keeper sweeper so how can it be disrespectful he is a main part of the team in setting up the attacks and spends more time out of the box and touches the ball more than jesus and aguero in games so if he is happy at taking them and can hit the back of the net its ok by me

still can't not see a price for him in games by the bookies so maybe the odds are going to very long and worth £5 a pop

Yesterday we could’ve subbed Ederson for an outfield player just like they do in ice hockey now that would get the media talking.

Who is our regular penalty taker?
Gundogan took one recently despite Jesus being on the pitch. Jesus took one yesterday and missed. Yaya's on his way soon and Aguero - as prolific as he is in front of goal - hasn't got such a great conversation rate when it comes to penalties.

Taking the piss a bit if you give the keeper a pen to take. Can't be any worse than Jesus at them to be fair!

Cant be any worse than sticking a goalie up frobt as a center forward

 

[Bozo]

To be honest, if you concede a penalty I'm sure most teams would be more than happy for the opposition goalie to try and take it...? Don't get it right and you'll very quickly be picking it back out your own net.

Quite right on both points.

After the beautiful penalty Gundugon scored at Tottenham I was amazed he didn't take it.

 

[MCFCTrick]

I don't get the 'disrespectful' angle either? No more than it would be for a goalie to come up and score from a last min corner etc ...

 

[allblackcitizen]

I'd like to see Kyle Walker get one first!

 

[yerwot?]

Ed can hit it with accuracy and great power And he is mentally perfect , ice in his veins an absolute natural. The logical choice in fact. Disrespect ?????

Could be a good ploy to draw the opposition away from their own area ;)

Ederson to take any penalties against Utd next season ;)

 

[jrb]

I wish he'd let on to the SS after we chanted his name for ages, never mind score a goal.

 

[Bluesince1979]

Neither is Gundogan but he took one

Not the same though, is it ?

 

[dw7]

If we had an idiot like Pearce in charge yes. But we have a complete pro in pep so I'd say there is no chance

 

[pudge]

Not the same though, is it ?

Why not?

Is it just because he's the 'keeper as to why you think it's disrespectful then? Because last I checked, the 'keeper is still a part of the team

 

[Clevers]

Was it Peru that had their keeper take pens and free kicks? Think his name was Chilervert or something.
I'm sure Pep wouldn't allow Ederson to take one but without a designated penalty taker as such, I wonder if Ederson practices penalties in training in case of a shoot out? He'd possibly be a candidate, especially if it went into sudden death.

One of his goalkeeping heroes, Brazilian great Rogerio Ceni holds the world record of 129 goals for a goalkeeper, during an 18-year career.

[brummie blue]

is it correct it's only Walker and Ederson that haven't scored this season? Could always give the next pen to Ederson
