I bet Morelos will be the first player booked for taking a knee in support of BLM
There’s not a lot different between this one and the league cup final except the keeper went the wrong way this time. It’s not a criticism or Morelos, most of the time, even bad penalties go in.
On the subject of Penalties, and I am no great footballer, but the keeper has a ‘rainbow’ area he can reach. Master placing it outwith that rainbow and you score.

As much as I can relate to your point, I think pace is the key. Master getting it with velocity and the keeper is going to struggle.
So the answer is? High with power

Laces through it and hit the side net. So my old coach used to say.

Gazza had that, usually into the side netting (inside the goal).There’s not a lot different between this one and the league cup final except the keeper went the wrong way this time. It’s not a criticism or Morelos, most of the time, even bad penalties go in.

When it comes to penalties. The keeper knows you want to go across your body went you strike it. That’s why I knew sitting in the crowd where Alfie was going in the final. Good to see he wants to keep stepping-up, just needs to keep practising.
Search his penalty against PSV for Osijek. Cool as you like.
He’s a dick, but the last penalty taker we had with a clean strike was probably Whittaker.
It works. Or if you have power and confidence absolutely blooter it towards the keepers head. They move generally and aint getting near it.Laces through it and hit the side net. So my old coach used to say.

I'm sorry but no way was that a penalty. He took it well but that's embarrassing how he fell. Yeah I get it, it's a part of the modern game but ffs

Wait until you see the ones we don't get during the real season, then you can complain.
Robbie Fowler made it sound easy, but hit the side net with it and the keeper won’t save itThere’s not a lot different between this one and the league cup final except the keeper went the wrong way this time. It’s not a criticism or Morelos, most of the time, even bad penalties go in.

Yep.
Big Bassey caught out for their goal, but hopefully just getting rid of the rustiness.

A good penalty is one that goes in.As much as I can relate to your point, I think pace is the key. Master getting it with velocity and the keeper is going to struggle.

However, the best description of football is that it is a game of deception and surprise, I can't remember who said that maybe Maradona.
It is the same with penalties, in essence, you are hoping to deceive or surprise the goalkeeper and if you have the ability to vary how you take them, you will always have the element of surprise and the ability to deceive the man trying to keep the ball out.
Goalkeepers have become so big and athletic in modern football that even power and placing it can sometimes not be enough if they know which way you are going and they pinch a few feet from the goal-line.

If Alfie went down like that in the SPL game he would get a straight red

Good thing fans aren’t allowed in, I could see our players losing all respect for quite a few of the them if they started huffing and puffing about players showing their support.

As much as he’s unfairly targeted and referred to different standards I think even a bent SPL ref would struggle to get away with a straight red for a dive (if you want to call it that)!

Furthest point away from the keeper is the inside post.Laces through it and hit the side net. So my old coach used to say.
Two inches behind that, the keeper has no chance.
If you can do this over foot high, he has less than no chance as he can’t dive up the way!

Always found that in amateur football, if you let the keeper catch you looking one way as you place the ball, 9 times out of 10 they will dive that way. Controlled hit, placed with a bit of height.
Had great success doing that until one time I hit it low and the same way I looked and the goalie saved it! Blamed the hangover.

Not for me.
A penalty taker, for me, has to be a good passer of the ball.
Morelos doesn’t fall into that category.

Hagi imo would be a good penalty taker.

I don't agree.
I think Morelos is actually a very good footballer and has a good variety of passing especially under pressure.
He should take our penalties and with more practice in match situations, he will get there.
I always want my top goalscorer to take responsibility for a shot at goal.

I thought Boyd was a great penalty taker. Absolutely rotten passer though, couldn’t even play a simple 5 yard ball to put Ferguson through on goal away at El Madrigal
