May 19, 201115 yr who has been our best penalty taker for me john ritson(where is he now) or micheal rickets
May 19, 201115 yr Errm don't know, what I remember. We scored all 4 against Toronto Davies missing 1 v Arsenal Taylor missing 1 v Reading Anelka missing 1 v Wigan Okocha missing 2, 1 v Man City, 1 v Boro but he did score the rebound Djorkaeff, think is only penalty was in the last minute at Anfield in a 3-2 win. Speed was perfect Ricketts also
May 19, 201115 yr steve thompson Now there's a lower division player who could strike a ball My 80's hero
May 20, 201115 yr Tony Philliskirk for me - always bottom corners at pace. Great shout. Also lethal with free-kicks on the edge of the area too iirc. I seem to remember him being able to find the top corner with ease.
May 20, 201115 yr I seem to remember that John Thomas was quite good as well with a penalty, or did I make that up?
May 20, 201115 yr Ignoring all his other flaws I thought Holdsworth was pretty good, recently Speed is the only one I've felt truly comfortable about scoring. Taylor's miss (Reading?) was appalling; such a good striker of the ball should give the keeper no chance
May 20, 201115 yr Am I right in saying stubbs smashed a couple in for us? I don't think so. Dean Holdsworth, for all his shortcomings, was a decent penalty taker.
May 20, 201115 yr Tony Philliskirk for me - always bottom corners at pace. Missed one in the Cup against Reading if I remember right. Think it was Jim Leighton who saved it. Think he put the rebound in, mind.
May 20, 201115 yr Ray Parry. I don't think I ever saw him miss one. Or Roy Hartle, He hit the ball so hard that even if the keeper got behind it the momentum would have taken both keeper and ball into the back of the net.
May 20, 201115 yr Without doubt Super John McGinaly. Only remember one miss at home against Port Vale.
May 20, 201115 yr I don't think so. Dean Holdsworth, for all his shortcomings, was a decent penalty taker. He's a cunt
May 20, 201115 yr Jeff Chandler - thread closed! He is the best I've seen without doubt. Very calm and always well placed (apart from penalty shoot out against Chester which I think was his only miss).
May 20, 201115 yr Franky Worthy & his free kicks were awesome too. Paul Jones took a decent penalty also.
