bolton in bedford Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 is it our fault as fans that were shit at pens ever since waddle got slatedthe pressures been building Total bollox. Getting paid thousands a week, you should learn to deal with the pressure, and most clubs have psychologists to help with this type of thing. If a player is taking a penalty thinking he's going to miss because of the pressure then he shouldn't be taking one in the first place. Stuart Pearce got slated too but look what he did in '96. The pure and simple fact is that we just haven't got the bottle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ani Posted July 5, 2006 Share Posted July 5, 2006 it was interesting that crouch said the players were too tired carragher had only been on 2 minutes !! but he also send went ok in traininf when everyone was fresh, maybe they shoudl take at the end of a hard training session when everyone is nt fresh ??? but more to do with bottle and quality than other factors me thinks.

I dont think they know what a hard train session was like , they were supposed to be the fittest England side ever , they didn't look like it they look shagged most of the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I blame the WAGS, Sven, McLaren, Beckham and Adolf for losing the war. If he hadnt we would now be Germanic and missing penalties would simply not be an option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted July 5, 2006 Moderators Share Posted July 5, 2006 if we practice penalties against our keepers - who don't save em - it's no wonder we think we're sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Zico Posted July 5, 2006 Moderators Share Posted July 5, 2006 apparently when at Schalke, Lehmann got his hands on a database some bloke had set up that had every player in the bundesliga who had taken a penalty and what to do when they take them - e.g. stand tall, high left, low right he'd study this before each game and saved loads of penalties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Germans approach penalties in a very prepared and professional manner, England by comparision reluctantly practised in Baden Baden as the press had given them so much grief in the past for not doing so. I can just visualise them now havin a laugh treating it like a kick about in a park . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
