Don't worry about penalties mate.I understand your point. His penalty technique at his Bayern times looked firmer for real, in Barcelona it looked less guaranteed that he's going to score. But hear me out: his last penalty against Sevilla was his first penalty with that technique in Barcelona that looked firm like in his Bayern days. Maybe he had some mental insecurities and now he improved it back to his normal form like the rest of his abilities under Flick?
Yeah I know, but those are from 2020 and we were talking about his penalties in Barcelona
Sup KL? It's been a long time. All good?Only one guy on the list with way more than 100 pen attempts
Ronaldo has missed a lot more penalties (especially important ones) than his overly protective, obsessive fanboys will ever admit to.Only one guy on the list with way more than 100 pen attempts
I'm a Messi fan but to be fair, based on this list, Messi missed 2 more and score 35 less. What's your problem?Only one guy on the list with way more than 100 pen attempts
He’s just a irrational Ronaldo hater
I think King Leo's point is that Messi is viewed as an average or at best slightly above average penalty taker. Whereas 'that other guy' is claimed to be the world's best ever penalty taker - absolutely super duper at them - yet he has a lower percentage than plenty others (even those who have taken a lot, so it can't be claimed to be small sample size) and has missed quite a few big ones that I can name off the top of my head.
No he’s just a hater look at his post history
There's nothing 'irrational' about having a strong dislike for Ronaldo. In fact I would say it's the conclusion a well-rounded human and good judge of character would come to, based on his many issues as a person on and off the pitch.
He's got a point though.
Maradona already covered most of my points.
), but CR7 is at best good, not elite at this.
OkayMaradona already covered most of my points.
I was mostly pointing out:
1) The volume of penalties taken by CR7 (150, by far the most in the list)
2) His non-elite scoring rate. Yes, Messi's an average penalty taker (except for those super high pressure WC QF, SF, and F ones where he is elite
