Shit because the average conversion rate for penalties is around 76% and Mahrez's average is that he misses one on three. Greedy because, even knowing he's shit, he doesn't hand the ball to Gundo who is 15 for 17 in his career.
He’s not the manager. He doesn’t decide who takes penalties. I think as someone else has said, it’s pretty obvious Gundogan doesn’t fancy them, despite his decent record. And no manager is going to insist a player takes them who tells him he rather not.

Missing the amount we have is criminal. Plain and simple. Its fucked us on more than one occasion also since Pep arrived. Is it now 25 penalties missed under Pep?
It is laughable Mahrez was anywhere near the one tonight, considering the last ones hes taken with any pressure. He obviously scores 100% of the time in training and nobody else wants them.

Just imagine if Erling misses one.
What the fuck will we do then ?

Just saw this on BBC websiteOnly a month ago Gundo slotted in a perfect penalty v England at Wembley.
Mind boggling what is going on with us on pens.
For how much Mahrez contributes generally, we may as well have Mario in the wing just in case we get a pen

Weirdly we rarely lose in shootouts.

£150 million bid for Ivan Toney in January. £2 million a week wages and just bring him on for pens and then sub him straight off again.
Not that it would be a good idea but it would be enough to finally see off Klopp and half the media.

Totally agree, he was even worse on Satuday, which makes it all the more baffling that he started again tonight.Wouldn’t be so bad Mahrez missing a pen if he was contributing on the pitch generally. Personally, I am more concerned at the level of his performance than missed pens. He was dire tonight (again)
