Tbh it's only mad because he's currently our only striker. It's weird that literally no-one would trust him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanBalaban Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Was Ings on the pitch enough to be classed as our default taker in the first place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go for Coutinho, Buendia or Digne (whoever is on the pitch, if/when we get one) or perhaps our new striker will demand the ball? Hopefully our new striker will demand the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom13 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 (edited) Luiz and Young winning, they'd be my top two choices. Surprised Buendia has so many votes. Excellent player, not sure I'd back him from the spot though. Edited January 21, 2023 by Tom13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJBOB Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I’d be surprised if it isn’t Watkins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I would go with Luiz for me Its a big step up as our last 2 takers Ings and Anwar were deadly from the stop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 The crispest striker of a ball we have is not great in the head but, give him positive mental attitude and I'd back him to beat the keeper each time - Leon Bailey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSvillain Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Dembele has a record of 29 scored and 6 missed so I imagine he would step up if we bring him in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV82 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 I hate to be boring but I couldn't possibly pick one. I don't see them in training. Whoever Emery decides on will be the best man for the job I'd wager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidcow Posted January 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 21, 2023 Whoever scores the most in training should be given the job initially to see how they handle the real thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponky Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 This thread is awfully optimistic, given we average about 3 penalties every season and VAR doesn't seem to bother even checking when it's us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalfTimePost Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Watkins isn't the right choice for me. He's had 7 penalties in his career scoring 3, missing 4. For Villa he's 2-1 so I'm sure he'll get the first couple chances we get, but for me it should be Young if he's on the pitch (5-3) or Bailey (3-0) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
