A centre mid should be between 6-10 goals a season I suppose when you look at Hutchinson and Pelupessy’s goal scoring record, Bannan’s doesn’t look too bad our entire midfield scoring record for 4 years is absolutely appalling that is your problem and due to lack of pace in defence we play too deep to cover our poor defenders its an entire team problem . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshy Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Tend to find most pens are hit hard now days. Keepers are much more athletic. He sidefooted it quite softly I thought and as good as rolled it across the floor. Give the thing some welly and get some height on it. Any how, it's done and dusted now.

Villa of course went on to win 3-1 in added time. Bannan would have issues hitting a barn door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Useless. Bannan has been on pens since Fletcher left (who missed a massive one against Villa), this just shows our lack of a proper striker. I love Bannan but a pretty shot shy midfielder shouldn't be on pens if you've got any striker worth his salt in the team. I'll never forget Hector wading through the dithering in our squad when he just picked up the ball that time, what a guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has that same look about him like my dog does when playing fetch-ball - dopey but unfazed by anything but the bloody ball. He wouldn't even think about the pressure. Just get the ball and smash it in. Just about to say the same thing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another key moment from a key player that was bottled. 12 matches unbeaten when Fletcher missed that penalty which failed to see us seal the game and went on to see us turned over. It’s like watching Dad’s Army on repeat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Crawshaw Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 4 hours ago, NorthernOwl said: Players miss penalties all the time. Messi has missed 28 in his career and scored 99 so even the very best miss them regularly. Yes its frustrating that Bannan missed but its not the reason we lost or the reason we are going down. Exactly ...even the best can miss them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like watching Dad’s Army on repeat. Players miss penalties, it happens. Fletcher's in that game was probably the worst pen I can remember for years though, pathetic, and we'd played so well! I'll never forget thinking that was must win before hand, and in the last 10 minutes being so frustrated than Bruce did not go for the win, which is what we needed to do, their late winner left everyone gutted but it was irrelevant, we needed the win. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players shouldn't miss penalties all the time. They overthink it. The GK has to stand still, the ball is static, it's 12 yards from the goal, and you've spent your entire life practising kicking it. Take a long run up and smash it as hard as you can. Very occasionally it will hit the GK (but bounce back), and even more occasionally it will go over the bar, but almost never. A professional should miss no more than 1 in, say 50. Although I've been going a long time and I don't think we've been awarded 50 You are saying a professional should have a 98% success rate as a minimum. OK then Ronaldo 84%, Messi 77%, Salah 83%, Neymar 81%. Maybe you could go and give those guys some advice and tell them they are overthinking it.
