tinker Posted July 14 VT Supporter Share Posted July 14 Easy , Ollie , he's developed enough over the last 12 months to warrant it. Top scorer in the PL is his aim, he needs penalties to boost his goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MotoMkali Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Tielemans will probably be on pens, corners and right footed free kicks We need someone else other than him and barkley though for if they are off the pitch. Perhaps Rogers or Ramsey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Tielemans, McGinn, Barkley. Watkins is far down the list and historically he has missed more pens that he's scored, that's a dreadful record. He even slipped while taking one against Lille. Love Ollie but I don't want him near pens. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 McGinn said it was between him and Luiz so it's possible he steps up. Think he has only taken 1 or 2 in shootouts for Scotland? According to the stats Tielemans has scored 24/29 so he definitely seems like the best option. However despite his previous record I can see Ollie being desperate to take them again, and I wouldn't be completely opposed to it. I think he's a different player now.

alexvilla4 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Tielemans for me. Always looks very composed and has excellent ball striking technique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Tielemans is not a sure starter once Kamara is fit. Give it to Ollie If he misses a few then change it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam2003 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 4 hours ago, Tomaszk said: Watkins will want them. I'll think he'll get them. When he misses one of his first two it'll go to Barkley or Tielemans. This is exactly right I think. He’ll get first chance, and he will have been practicing every day all summer with a specialist coach. But that doesn’t mean he’ll still be on them in November!

brommy Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 I've thought long and hard about who should be our new penalty taker. My decision is to sub Olsen on. Move aside Unai! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's definitely starting. Whether at the 10 or as the more advanced midfielder he will start in almost all big games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPower_14 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Since Watkins was "bad at penalties" he's become one of the most mentally strong and accurate finishers in the league. I'd be happy for him to take them to begin with. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted July 16 VT Supporter Share Posted July 16 Watkins gets another go till he proves unreliable. He's a different beast now with much more self confidence to 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterSw Posted July 16 Share Posted July 16 Pre-season tournament with Emi in goal. If you score past him enough times, you deserve to be a pen taker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
