Do we need a new penalty taker?

[Big Fat Sam]

It's not easy to score a penalty against a 6'5 tall goalkeeper who is agile and has a good read of the game. That said, there is no excuse to not at least be able to shoot the ball relatively close to a corner and either low or high. That said, I would take him off penalties now and get Digne on them if he feels confident, which he should seeing as he is the French Baines.

Digne has taken 1 penalty in his entire career.

Again, find me someone better than 26 for 32.

Watch someone suggest Richarlison next.

But you cant miss 4 of your laast 7 though can you mate, when that happens its in your head, you are over thinking other things you weren't thinking when you were netting every penalty

 

[Andy G]

The answer is clear as day.....he's standing between the sticks and has a hell of a whack on him!!

As long as he takes the pen from a drop kick inside our own half it's a great idea

5.03 DCL penalty



4.00 DCL penalty

Good techinque, not a huge fan of the short run up though

Gets enough power and accuracy, so don't mind. Better than Pogba's! Plus, less time to think about it. Second one the keeper went the right way and still got nowhere near it.

Only club with 2 in here I think? both LBs too.

That logic would suggest Digne, but I've no idea how good he is at 'em

We’re actually blessed with penalty takers really so it’s a shame we never get into shootouts.

Baines, Gylfi and Cenk have stellar % records.

I reckon Digne could follow in Baines footsteps and take a good pen. I’m glad DCL had the bottle to ask to take it before Gylfi said no.
