Penalty Taker

[Tuearts right boot]

I'm going to stick a tail on this one and call it Mr Fox. ...
Why don't we use 2 players, one to run up and swerve and then no 2 follows instantly behind and whilst the goalie is scrabbling around, coolly slots the ball home. It's not rocket science.

 

[york away to this!]

Are ball boys allowed to take them?

II have a horrible feeling that PIGMOL are going to instruct their minions to give us MORE penalties, backed up by their sidekicks at VAR, in order to slow us down.

Hate to say it but Rashford ain’t to bad at penalties

Winning them with zero contact , he is the master

Surely it’s got to be Kev!

Whoever takes it needs to have a clear plan and be so practiced at it that repaticion allows them to execute it under pressure.

They should also have a few variations.

If the goalkeeper guesses correctly they should also have a chance of beating him by shear force of execution.

If you apply all of the above you'll score far more than you miss. The ones you miss can be forgiven.

Last night's penalty was dreadful. For a striker so adept at exploiting the space of the goal in normal play it's shocking to see.

Missed another at The Academy this afternoon! What have City missing penalties and coronavirus got in common - they're both highly infectious!

It’s quite amazing we have won two penalty shootouts to win finals and one at Wembley in the CS.

Yesterday we had Fernandinho, Kev, Mahrez, Aguero and Gundogan who have all missed for us and Jesus on the bench!

Maybe it’s Bernado’s turn

Can you guarantee the second one to get it on target. Don't hold your breath:-)

Seeing as the girls missed a penalty today, are all our teams being coached holistically in the art of missing them ?

 

[Easy]

Can’t we just get Yaya to come and teach them all how to take a penalty.

Or they should at least watch the below:
