white noise Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I've said it before and I will say it again, Bogdan is truly dreadful with penalties. Yesterday, just prior to the kick being taken, Bogdan was stood BEHIND his line, with his hands down. He made no attempt to narrow the angles by stealing a few inches or even diving forwards, off his line. He did not move across his line, or spread himself. He did not delay the penalty by walking forwards, he did not show either corner by standing off centre and then moving back, to attempt to create indecision in the taker. No psyching out the taker but yes, he stuck to the rules. Often, saved penalties are when the keeper moves off his line. Often, missed penalties occur when the keeper psychs out the taker. Bogdan's record this season is nothing short of atrocious. As someone in NSL said yesterday " Andrews supreme confidence in penalty taking, stems from practising against Bogdan all week , scoring 300 out of 300!" I appreciate that the taker is always favourite but you can reduce the odds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

white noise Posted January 13, 2013 Author Share Posted January 13, 2013 Totall agree but it's still a poor record. More missed in an average shoot out than against us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Sharps Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 i'd prefer we were more preoccupied with preventing the fcukers Cheers echo, I would say surprised Lonergan ain't been given a go in the league considering his good game last week.

Garrp Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Im not a fan of Bogdan but Lonegan was asked if he was dissapointed to be left out after his performance against Sunderland he said no, he had to do more and didnt deserve to start as Bogdan has been our best player this season.

MalcolmW Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Totall agree but it's still a poor record. More missed in an average shoot out than against us. Penalties within a match and penalties to resolve a tied match are very different. For one thing the shoot-out is after extra time and out field players are generally tired, or even nursing a knock. For goalkeepers, facing 5 or more with a minute or two between each gives the opportunity to get into a groove. Almost like a training session. Within a match (when penalties actually count as goals) the advantage is with the taker. He is nominated and is (or certaily should be) up for it. The keeper will have been involved in action before the awarded pen, which is not the situation in a post-match shoot-out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So in essence a keeper will have had fuck all to do for 120 minutes prior to a shootout.? Edited January 13, 2013 by DomRepWanderer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

campo'swig Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 A post highlighting Bogdan as not saving enough pens is laughable.We should be more concerned with our tendency to concede them nearly every week.#uneducated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HazzyinBolton Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 YES we should be concentrating on not conceding penalties, YES we've got bigger things to worry about, but YES Bogdan has been absolutely shit at attempting to get anywhere near one of our numerous penalties conceded this season. As has been said, he's not good enough full stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomRepWanderer Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Bogdan is the least of our problems Disagree, he is a problem, last week Lonergan commanded the defence much better, his presence was felt, Bogdan is a liability, and far too quiet around the box, a keeper needs experience and a maturity to bollock defenders, Bogdan has neither.
