What is it with English players and bloody penalties???? Even the U21’s can’t bloody score from 12 yards.
What is it with English players and bloody penalties???? Even the U21’s can’t bloody score from 12 yards.They can they scored three, and should have had a stonewall penalty in the first half!
Fuck the EFL
What is it with English players and bloody penalties???? Even the U21’s can’t bloody score from 12 yards.We are arrogant when it comes to tournament football and always believe we can win the games and so we ignore the significance of penalty shootouts. Therefore we don’t coach our players enough. Why the hell do we not have a penalty coach, Le Tiss maybe or anyone who had a history of scoring every time from the spot.
Its impossible to coach someone to never miss a penalty, a penalty shoot out is a lottery, if the keeper guesses correct he saves it if he doesnt you score.
Unless you blaze it over the bar or two yards wide, now thats unforgivable, at least make the keeper work and get it on target!
What pisses me off is the guys who try to pass the ball into the net arrogantly and end up with egg on their face.Fuck the EFL

What pisses me off is the guys who try to pass the ball into the net arrogantly and end up with egg on their face.The great penalty takers never blasted the ball or worse still put it straight in the middle of the goals they placed it if the keeper made a save he deserved it . Like everything else in the modern game taking a penalty has been over complicated. If a player cant be coached on how to find the corner of the goal he should not be on the field.
It’s an ingrained mindset after years of near misses something we’ll struggle to shake off.
Sports psychologist and sh”t loads of practising is the key.we ignore the significance of penalty shootouts. Therefore we don’t coach our players enough.We practiced them after every training session, the Germans didn’t at all.
Taking a penalty during normal play is totally different to a penalty shoot-out. The latter is more down to how one holds their nerve. I have always said that had england won the “original” shoot-out back in 1990, we would not now be having this discussion.
It’s reassuring to know that amidst the current political turmoil some things remain reassuringly consistent and unchanging.
