colhint Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I don't think Ollie is a penalty taker. I think he has too much time to think about it. He's much better flying in and get a shot away. Having said that we now have a squad not a first team and reserves. Given that whoever is the penalty taker won't always be on the pitch when pens come around. So who would be your 5 penalty takers in the squad. I'll start 1 Tielemans 2 Digne I just think he's got that Milner calm professional trait 3 Dougie 4 JJ 5 SJM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And McGinn has the accuracy to place the ball at pace in the corners. Watkins I want to be our striker for a number of years, but he can't be relied on to take penalties, the numbers show that.

Zatman Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Luiz or Tielemans then maybe McGinn(I think he has taken one or two for Scotland). After that maybe Torres or Ramsey I wouldnt be against Emi doing a Chilavert and taking one if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HalfTimePost Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 Yeah Ollie's record is poor with penalties. Needs to be taken off of them to maintain good confidence in his general play. Has scored 4, Missed 5 in his career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewieGriffin Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 (edited) Id rather Emi Martinez took one before Ollie had another go. On a serious note, I'd give them to Luiz, Tielemans, McGinn, JJ and Diaby. Edited August 3 by StewieGriffin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
