Sure hope he doesn't know this before he takes the PK that's got ur life on the line. It shud be the first time someone actually celebrates wildly for losing a PK. :lol:
Dont worry, i'll keep that on the down low, after he saves my life, i'll say thanks and then flick the ashes of my friend into his face (this is my friend's wish and he is english)

All this one na talk. If they take penalties long enough, they will miss sooner or later. There aint any superstar I know who has not missed. Be it Maradona, Pele, Platini, Zico, Baggio, Milla, Van Nistelrooy, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, etc.

we are not talkin' about superstars. We are talkin' about penalty takers...it's not the same. Maradona or Platini for ex. wasn't good at all.

Last season Ruud continued his goal scoring form but didn't hit the heights of the previous term. He scored a hat-trick away to Leicester in a 4-1 win, two against Man City in the FA Cup and two at Everton including the last minute winner in a dramatic 4-3 win. It was during the second half of the season that his league form worryingly went downhill for he went 8 games without a Premiership goal. It also became a concern that his once omnipotent prowess from the penalty spot was gone. The striker failed from the spot four times, the most costly miss was at home to Arsenal in injury time when he hit the bar.

Rickie Lambert (Southampton striker) has taken 26 penalties for Southampton, and has scored all of them. 100% conversion rate is pretty awesome.

Yobo’s problem is easy to analyze. His name is Omeruo. You don’t have to be a genius, just a normal guy like me to understand that we’re talking about frustration. It’s not easy for a player to see how he’s outperformed by a 19 year-old kid, but the kid is fantastic. I had the courage to play him and the problem is very simple.

Zinedine Zidane.
"How can someone qualify his country for the World Cup and then, because he lost a match, everyone is saying they should sack him. Please allow the man to do his work. Nobody is perfect, but if someone can qualify his country for the World Cup, then he deserves some respect. I even heard that it is the second time he has qualified Nigeria for the World Cup. That is huge". - French legend Alain Giresse on Nigeria's Shuaibu Amodu, 2010

Southampton have a history of good penalty takers. Le Tissier played for them for about 15 years, and missed only one penalty in his entire career. Even then, the "missed" penalty had no consequence because he scored from the rebound after the GK saved his initial shot!
