Some of you make it seem that bottle = good penalties. You need to be slightly good at shooting as well.

Seriously, Frank Lampard is an absolute legend of the game. He needs to be recognised in some way eg. Frank Lampard OBE, Sir Frank Lampard or some kind of lifetime achievement award.

And that "not bottle" = bad penalty. This isn't always the case.

Penalties are obviously the best solution at the moment. Although you could argue that a challenge where players are asked to hit the target (ball crosses the line) from the half way line without a goalkeeper would be pretty intense as well.

Scholes would be laughing if he had the bottle.

Nah it's good having the keepers involved too, they can become legendary characters as the result of shoot outs (eg - Nueur would've done had Bayern won, his balls were massive that night, Ricardo for Portugal), I think it's nice they get a chance of glory in shootouts cos they don't really get as much as other players normally.

Nueur wasn't great in the shoot-out, balls weren't massive on the night, fuck keepers.

I don't think penalty's need to be changed, it is always harsh on one or two players and isn't a nice way to lose but it gets the job done, it is also very tense and entertaining for the viewers.

If they were to change it I'd say after 30 minutes E.T have a points system.

Something like...

Bookings are minus points
Corners are plus points
Shots on target plus points
Post/Bar plus points
Fouls minus points

Obviously there are more & there would need to be more or less points given for each specific statistic but it could easily be figured out, and it would justly reward the better team with the win.

Meh, wrote it in seconds, i'm sure there could be certain variables that could be engineered to make sure it worked fairly, but like I said, I think penalties should stick.
