Robson was going down the middle with his penalty

When i was watching last night i was sure he was going down the middle with his penalty before he even hit it.

Was anyone else here thinking the same thing?

 

Yes. Even my dog.

 

What about their keeper?

 

ooooh. Errrmmmmm. Not sure. Think he was just clumsy lucky..dunno. Need to watch it again.

 

Yes my mate predicted it as well.

 

The penaly kick taker should be practicing as much as a free kick taker practicing free kicks. You never see this much lack of composure in countries where they do this like Italy.

 

i said it a few months back in a thread that he was going to get caught out he always puts it down the middle in big games. last night, celtc vs rangers and dundee utd vs rangers come to mind

 

Shocking penalty, even though the keeper was 3 yards off his line when he hit it.

No composure whatsoever

Any suporter could come on and boot it down the middle.

You either.
put it in the left corner
put it in the right corner

End of

 

yes m8 was thinking the same before he hit it...hes better than that.

 

Agreed.

Why is Naka not our penalty taker?

 

I think samaras should have taken it. He's the only player i would hav put money on scoring out of the whole team. He was the only one that looked interested last nite!

 

yep give him a chance.

did paul hartley not hit the pens for hearts? i would maybe give him a chance if he is on

 

Yes the guy next to me bet me a fiver that he would miss it, 0-0 and a fiver down.

 

Three penalties, against Rangers, St. Mirren and now Aalborg. All exactly the same, all three of the worst penalties you will ever see.

He got away with the others more by luck than judgement, so having seen how both could so easily have been stopped, why on earth he decided to do exactly the same thing again, * only knows.

If you are going to hit it down the middle, you have at least got to get the * thing off the ground.

I'd never let him near a penalty spot again. One miss, yes, but I could have saved all three of them.

 

no offence m8 but i think thats the 1st post i actually agree with you lol

yep the pen was far to predictable and i had a bad feeling he was gonna miss the second he stepped up

 

It does not matter where he puts the penalty, as long as it goes in. If that penalty had snuck in nobody would be complaining.

 

Agreed, The problem was that i was just expecting exactly what he done. I knew the pressure was on and he would go straight down the middle, which makes it even the more frustating he missed.

 

Aye knew when he stepped up it was going straight down the middle, he is still a good penalty taker just need's to stop hitting them down the middle.
