kingsidney Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) More terrible man management from Carlos. A better answer would have been 'if it wasn't for my terrible anti football tactics, it would never have got to penalties'.

FF gets slaughtered on here by some, yet he stepped up and had the courage to take one. He also had the decency to post a message to the fans after. People say he doesn't want to be at Wednesday are troublemakers, he was probably playing trough injury too. For me any striker who refuses to take a pen is like me going I work in a sales environment and refusing to pick up the phone. It's absolutely pathetic. Putting pressure on your team, making a right back take a pen. How on earth can a 11 million pound striker stand their arm in arm with team meats and say he's not confident - and then watch a right back take a pen in our biggest match of the season. Unforgivable but following all his other pathetic performances not surprising. nobber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RocketOwl Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 People are quick to criticise Carlos about this and that, despite the fact he's our second best manger in the history of the club and changed the whole mentality of this club. Yet the striker we paid a club record fee for has been mincing about upfront since January, didn't have confidence to take a pen and has shown as much heart as Bothroyd did, yet for some reason he's still the saviour. 3 in 20 and on course to being one of the mosh expensive mistakes in the history of the club.

I'm going to tell Jordan Rhodes you work in a call centre so he can ring up and moan at you all day long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even if it has, I doubt we'd look to sell him in the summer so he can be 'worth' 25p for all I care... People don't half spout tripe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 During a shootout, half the team will take a penalty, and it's a fair guess that 2 or 3 others will as well. If you are lacking bottle, you'd be better taking the first one. I just wonder when and if Rhodes was going to take one. Was he in line for the 6th or 7th and so on, that are sudden death, and attract far more pressure? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eightace Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Mel Sterland used to take them for us years ago. Big run up and boom back of the net. It's something you've got to be comfortable with and being able to break a keepers hand if he tries to save it helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
