He’s had a short run up most of the season.Short run up with no power and direction he needs to practise
I’m pretty sure the first time he does something on the park won’t be the first time he’s practised it.

Gives the keeper a chance to read your intention from your approach.Same. Any player taking a short run up gives me the fear.
Get to the back of the D and take a good run at it!
The one thing about today is that I’d have saved his penalty today.Think it's just a mental thing when he misses one the next one it's on his mind. Once he scores again he will be back to hammering them home.
Dennis Irwin and Ian Harte were lethalBizarre post. Have you actually checked this ‘fact’ or are you just making it up?
Sergio Ramos takes the pens for Real Madrid and Spain btw
How does that explain the number of penalty misses from short run ups?Gives the keeper a chance to read your intention from your approach.
You serious?He’s not even a very good penalty kick taker.
Seriously I’d let him try one, perhaps two more. If he misses them then give it to someone else.
Does it though.How does that explain the number of penalty misses from short run ups?
No. Never claimed that i did.Does it though.
You’ve got all the info you need to make accurate assessment?
I can vouch for that approach.So the penalty experts on here would blast the ball in the top corner of the net. Stick to playing FIFA and let Tav take the penalties.

Great shoutAnd leighton baines.think i can only recall him ever missing 2 in all the years he took them for everton
The one against Aberdeen had plenty pace.. think he was trying to be to careful todayI have never liked his penalty style. Call me old fashioned but I like a penalty to be hit the way Albertz and Boyd used to take them. Head down and hit hard into the corners.
I always feel if the keeper guesses the right way he has a chance of saving his penalties because he doesn't put much pace on them.
Short run up with no power and direction he needs to practise
Absolutely correct.No. Never claimed that i did.
Merely stating that people can miss penalties regardless of the run up they take.
I prefer a long run up. Never feel confident of a player scoring from short run up
Dennis Irwin is the only penalty specialist (another defender btw to negate the defenders shouldn't be on penalties guy above) I can think of that was a designated taker and never missed a penalty during their career (I think). Who are you thinking of out of interest as virtually everyone misses a penalty here and there, Ronaldo and Messi included.If he was better at pens every One would be right in the corners. Its not a dig at tav but look at the best penalty takers when do they ever miss
Very astute of you to notice. He should go back to the technique he was using when he had a 100% record up until recently.Short run up with no power and direction he needs to practise
He never does look at keeper all eyes on the ball he prob should take a look but I suppose it has worked for him.Tav never give a look at the keeper before taking his kick. If he may had today he could have stuck it right in the middle as the keeper moved early.
Graeme Alexander, the current Motherwell manager, was fairly successful from the spot.Dennis Irwin is the only penalty specialist (another defender btw to negate the defenders shouldn't be on penalties guy above) I can think of that was a designated taker and never missed a penalty during their career (I think).

He missed 2, prior to this he scored 9 in a row. Don’t make an issue where there is none, he’ll score again2 games in a row I’ve taken Tav to score anytime. 2 missed penalties. It’s on me. I will never bet him to score anytime again.
Apologies James.
Here we go with the bams looking for arguments. Its an observation that most of the time tav doesn't hit what the pundits would call a “good penalty” yes everyone misses now and again im talking about the way that the penalties are hitDennis Irwin is the only penalty specialist (another defender btw to negate the defenders shouldn't be on penalties guy above) I can think of that was a designated taker and never missed a penalty during their career (I think).

Tav is the man just needs to stop being bit complacent slightly longer run up and have respect for the keeper he faces2 games in a row I’ve taken Tav to score anytime. 2 missed penalties. It’s on me. I will never bet him to score anytime again.

Whilst I agree with you the OP never mentioned Spain give examples in Scotland or England or has he a point?Bizarre post. Have you actually checked this ‘fact’ or are you just making it up?

Bam? Seriously? Your post I replied to 100% implied the best penalty takers NEVER miss and that Tav doesn't hit the corners at pace. I, politely, I may add, asked for an example, because everybody misses now and then and said he has scored at least 2 in the corners despite the keeper going the same way this season alone. We can leave it as I'm a bam and you're talking shite or converse like adults, your choice.Here we go with the bams looking for arguments.

I dont understand why a lot players do this, for me the best penalty takers take a good run and blast it down the middle,most of the time a keeper will dive left or right .I just hate these short run-ups!
So Tav has missed around a quarter of his penaltiesTav in his career for us across all competitions has scored 29 and missed 7 penalties.
Depends on who is on.0 v 0 , 10 mins left in the Hibs game we get a penalty. Who takes it ?
I remember screaming at him not to do it........then he scoredtrevor francis in the cup final, one step... score
