Stifler Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 6 minutes ago, Chris_R said: Actually, statistically penalties are best placed down the middle as goalkeepers almost always gamble and dive out the way. Obviously you look like a prize twat if the keeper just stands still and catches it, but mathematically it's the best option. Surely top bins isn’t getting saved.

HaydnNUFC Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Thought Chris Wood was a mint penalty taker as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But avoiding Chris Waddling it is somewhat harder than just chipping the ball down the middle. Once everything is factored in, middle is apparently best.

Once everything is factored in, middle is apparently best. You’ve got to mix it up though. You can’t just go down the middle all the time or after the first few the keepers will just start standing still. Next pen Isak gets he needs to drop the stutter-step. Keeper will be expecting it so won’t go early. Run up and side foot it in the corner. Keeper won’t react in time. Job’s a good un. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzza Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 (edited) His run up, falter and then hit depending on where the keeper has gone seems to have been found out. Sels kept calm amd held his place as long as possible and nearly caught Isak out, needs to vary it a bit I think...

cannybagoftudor Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Clutching here - but could wor Eddie be keeping him away from their CB's and saving him for the final - I know as I type this it sounds far too conspiratorial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

500bhp Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Was holding the bottom of his back a few times on Sunday. Looked in a bit of pain in the second half after one heavy knock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibierski Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 Hopefully just a precaution with bigger games on horizon. No need to risk him in what will be a routine defeat. Rather have seen Osula start mind, as Wilson is shite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The probability of that asteroid hitting earth is now just 0.0004%. So you'll have to deal with your emotions some other way unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
