There really aren't any bad misses in those clips :patrice:

First and third clips - the only criticism you can make is that he's trying to be too accurate rather than just getting it on target.

Second clip - excellent work from the keeper who comes off his line early and smothers him.

Legit read my mind. 3rd one he should have put on frame but he was trying to put it in the last angle, which while commendable, wasn't necessary based on where the keeper was positioned. There was more goal centrally that he could have aimed for.

Alan Shearer: The key is to hit the target. You can have the best strike in the world, but if you’re off-target it’s not going in.

So many forwards would score more goals if just hit the target rather than trying to be super accurate.

Need more people to be like Harold whose default aim was hard low and in the corner.

I blame FIFA tbh. Everyone wants that R1/Henry finish.

Wow, just seen Arsenal's goal. They fouled a Watford player in the build up so I wonder why that wasn't chalked off?

VAR went back like 4 phases of play to rule out a Chelsea goal earlier in the season. :mjlol:

Keep it up guys.

AMN really buckling down since that IG episode. Nuno looking good again, Ben and Gabi holding it down. Need to get more clinical, Auba gotta chill on Pens
