melodyogonna: If you remember a particular game against Wolves where Pogba begged Rashford to take the penalty only to lose it. The match ended a draw. Rashford clearly wasn't happy. The next game, Rashford played a penalty and missed. A particular season under Mourinho, we played a champions league game and lost two penalties against a 19yr old keeper. Martial lost one of the penalties. Mourinho had to call on Blind who later converted it. ...those are two scenarios I remember now. |

CapitalCee: If a striker is going through a lean period you can gift him a penalty if you are leading comfortably in a game. I believe Messi and Suarez did it for each other and there are other cases. However in a tight 0-0 or 1-0 match you can't because of confidence boosting take penalty duties away from a 91% penalty taker like Bruno to a 76% taker like Martial. Definitely not now when we are struggling to get into the top half of the table with negative goal difference. It would be incredibly moronic. |

CapitalCee: I just check the guy profile. Na new account. Must be an alternate trolling account. When Frank Leboeuf a CB was taking penalties for Chelshit they had strikers but trusted him because of his success rate. Rogerio Ceni a goalkeeper was the designated penalty taker practically throughout his club career. I am sure those clubs had strikers. Tony Tetuila should hustle for his own goals.

handelex:How is this related to anything? Our attackers are struggling for form and goal. They need to be talking penalties to boost their confidence. Bruno should leave it for them. |

afrodoc2: No mind am, no be Ramos de play PK for Madrid? Fernando Hierro was the designated PK taker for Spain through out his career. Milivojevic for Palace scored like 10 PKs one season like that when Benteke went the entire season with out a goal, why didn't he give his PK duties out? 5 Likes |

afrodoc2: Thank you doc. Rooney for example played several years for Man United they kept tossing around the PK duties in his front despite the fact that he is a very good PK taker, from Nistelrooy to Saha to Ronaldo to Van persie until the thing reach am. He never complained not minding that sometimes he goes on a long goal drought and is being dragged by the media, Ronaldo especially kept knocking the PKs even though we are winning matches with heavy scores at that time. Now that the team is struggling for points you wan go give unserious Martial PK |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by CapitalCee(m): 10:47am On Nov 23, 2020 |
handelex: HahahahahahahHH. No mind am, infact Martial and Rashford should be flogged for denying Bruno 3 assists yesterday. No be to de demand PK duties |

Trevor012: Who told you KDB is not judged by goals. Let me just tell you. If the current trend between KDB and Bruno continues till the end of the season, Bruno will effectively dislodge him as the best Midfielder in the league. Even if all Bruno’s goals till the end of the season are all PKs. Since Bruno entered EPL he has been head and shoulders better than KDB. Why KDB is still considered ahead of him is because of past seasons. If it continues this way Bruno will become the undisputed best MF in EPL. |

Karleb:For most of last Rashford was on penalty duty, the season before that was Pogba, so for 2 seasons now I never noticed any issues with penalties. And I don't see anything wrong with strikers having to take the penalties to boost their confidence. It shouldn't be monopolized by one person. 2 Likes |

Trevor012: Didn't you see that Bruno is creating chances more every body in the league? He is delivering key passes more than everybody too. He is also assisting quite adequately despite the profligacy of our forwards whom he keep dropping chances on the plate for, so he is more than doing his job. Martial and should do their jobs and leave PK alone |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nobody: 11:17am On Nov 23, 2020 |
Trevor012:The objective fact still remains that a PK is a one-on-one scenario, now whether you think otherwise is irrelevant. Talking about free goals, sitters and tap-ins are free goals as well. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by CapitalCee(m): 11:18am On Nov 23, 2020 |
melodyogonna: Yes there was no issues with penalties, so why is it an issue now? Or haven't you seen teams with midfielders playing all penalties for them? KDB and Joginho are midfielders they take PK for their teams, why is Bruno’s case different |

Na every year we dey need boost Martial's confidence like say na pikin. Someone is a useless striker and can not score 1-on-1 but you wan give am penalty when the score is 0-0 and tension is through the roof. Sebi you know the road to OT? Go and collect it from Bruno na. 5 Likes |

Asking for our forwards to be given penalty duties to boast their confidence and goal tally makes me a troll? What kind of school boy mentality is this. |
