Watching Knutson's team against the the Victims on BT Sport.

Such a shame that he doesn't want to come to us as his team is a joy to watch.

More convinced than ever on the basis of that first forty five that he would have been the man for us and would have had L.A/Orlando Don soon forgetting about OGS and publicly admitting that Rico has been right all along 😉

No sympathy at all for players that miss when doing stupid run ups like that.

Bloody foreigners, with their stupid pens and throw-ins. Should be banned. Wouldn't catch Stuart Pearce missing a penalty in such a manner. It'd be interesting to see the data. I'm convinced that if clubs thought that players doing strange run ups resulted in less penalties scored then they'd stop them doing it. It's the modern game, these things will have been analysed to death. In the end, they're just trying to trick the keeper into going down early so they can pass it into the other corner. It's always going to look weak when it goes wrong, but it's likely quite a weak shot when it goes in too. It'd be interesting to see a comparison in how many penalties are blazed over the bar or saved when they're blasted down the middle (or not in the corner), versus how many are hit wide, off the post or too close to the keeper when aiming for the corner. They might be seen as more acceptable forms of missing a penalty, but they're still missed in the end. I'm guessing neymar just needs to sit through a Lewis Ferguson masterclass for a few hours.
