Pedro Rodriguez

[Meitux]

how could he miss that? he had the whole left side of the goal in front him and still missed

I think Pedro played well. The only real blot was his miss.

He worked so hard making runs and alike, but he hardly got the ball. He was the only forward at times.

It was a pretty difficult angle, and the ball was at his right foot...

 

[footyfan]

He made the angle difficult for himself, because of that extra touch. And his right foot is as good as his left if not better, that's not an excuse

He should have dribbled just a bit more to the center or take the shot earlier to avoid the steep angle. But you're completely right, the angle was a lot more difficult than it looked and it was his weak foot.

what did you say now? first of all as footyfan said he should have shot earlier and after all he has no weak foot but his main foot is right ...........

if only messi would make those runs too.. but no he stands in the middle waiting for the ball damn it...

I put this kinda wrong: what I meant is that he had the ball on the wrong foot when shooting from that position.
But thanks for coming and reminding me about it, i feel enlightened now.

either way i think he should score

As DennyCrane said, it was very difficult for him to score with his right as the ball would naturally bend away from the goal, as it did, if he tried to place the ball. Had he been able to shoot with his left it'd bend inwards, towards goal. And the angle would be slightly better.

Also, I can't comment on how he got the chance yet... I only saw the replay of the shot.

 

[Noldorin]

i really admire him.. hes working so much running and running up and down the field... creating so much space for messi ... but the thing i really hate that it seems like he get overlooked quite often by the midfielders who try to pass to messi even if pedro made a perfect run or chance to score

Exactly. He make some excellent runs, but even Iniesta, Xavi, and Fabregas don't seem to look at him too often' it's a shame.

 

[Cule4life]

Im not gonna talk about the miss but many times it seemed he wasn't here on the pitch. Barely got the the ball. A game to forget.

 

[MrXavi_The_Midfield_King]

When he did that chip I was like my goodness what a goal, then I realised it went wide, need him to be more prolific in the area like in 09-11 period

i really really do think we will do much better with sanchez rather than him. he is so invisible these days. would really love to see the old pedro back. his finishing was top notch.

He scored on the 3 previous matches. He has improved a lot, and right now, should start ahead of alexis without a doubt.
