Cajun Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 The penalty shoot-out is a total waste of time. It'll be nowhere near the same conditions because they've just steamrolled through 90 minutes, whereas in the competition they'll have been grafting for 120 minutes and under genuine pressure. And are the Slovakian players really going to give a flying fig what happens? Pearce really should think things through. You simply can't replicate the pressure of a "proper" penalty shoot out. This will be little different to penalties in training. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Spectrum Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I wonder what the score would have been if we'd have played 442 from the start. 10? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 I wonder what the score would have been if we'd have played 442 from the start. 10? They had 25+ shots so they'd have still missed chances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delima Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Nigel Reo Coker is 23 Kieran Richardson is 22 Leroy Lita is 22 Anton Ferdinand is 22 Wayne Routledge is 22 Leighton Baines is 22 Peter Whittingham is 22 Why does Pearce play so many over 21 players. It is not that there is a shortage of under 21 players? NRC especially, should be in England B. Even If he is not good enough fro England B he shuldn't be in under 21 team.

Keefaz Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 This is stupid. It doesn't often happen that players taking penalties have already been beaten 5-0. That last fella looked like he couldn't be arsed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gggg Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 How is that even allowed? Because they would have been 21at the start of the tournament qualifiers, nothing wrong with it imo and we havent had a England B for years so they wouldnt be playing for England at all.
