Can we just turn them down and ask for it to be a goal kick. We'd probably score just as many from that scenario.

What makes you laugh is that we always win penalty shootouts.

Ederson after 70 minutes or when we're coasting. There's no way I'd have risked allowing him to take it today without some track record behind him.

We should do this for a laugh.

Has to be Ederson time. If he doesn’t score at least he’ll injury the oppo goalie.

Pep says he’s considering Ederson now. Once Sergio’s back I think he’ll get the nod.

To not hit the target is just criminal. At least make the goalie make a save.

If any keeper can hold a ball blasted by big Ed from 12 yards they deserve to score. More chance of breaking the keeper's arm...!

Funnily enough, my mate is a prison guard and was working at the prison Ched Evans was in. He said that they’d let him practice shooting and use another prisoner as a keeper. Ched Evans broke the guys arm with a shot :lol:

Pretend it’s a penalty shootout. All our players group together in the centre circle and only the taker goes forward.

We never miss in those circumstances.

I reckon Foden could take a decent penner.

Strikes me that if we had someone like a Fernandes or a le Tisssier or a Yaya who rarely if ever miss from the spot, then it would go some way to making themselves indispensable for the starting XI

I got a £90 one but if I paid with 14 days it’s cut to 45. What the fuck is that about?

Just leave two defenders in our penalty area when he’s taking the penalty, job done
