It looks lik it was the manager who chose the order of the pen takers, which apparently he said he would before the tournament.

Unlucky lads, nothing for you to whine about now.

I would make the argument that different circumstances called for a different standard. It was likely Drogbas last game for Chelsea, and he is also a fukking legend to the club that has done things for em. Ronaldo has won fukk all with Portugal. Drogba earned more of a right to glory chase than Ronaldo did.

Also, Chelsea (seemingly) had more reliable PK takers.

Mata went first and missed his, but I'm guessing he was a good pick considering that Torres wanted to take one and they said no. Luiz kicked a perfect penalty. Lampard is automatic and has been for years. Cole, ironic as it is to say this now, is pretty solid for a defender. Drogba went last.

ronaldo should have ripped the ball off the fourth guy. You could see he was a broken man from when he tried to go third and not his spot.

Ronaldo - decent two games against garbage teams but thats about it. No better than messis copa america overall really.

I always reckon you should do it like this

1. 2nd best pen taker
2. Decent pen taker, maybe a good cb
3. Best pen taker
4. Good striker of a ball
5. 3rd best

Though i spose it's hard to rank them after your first couple of good takers.

I always liked the way we set out in 2008 with

Tevez
Carrick
Ronaldo
Hargreaves
Nani

Spread out the attacking players with center midfielders.

It really isn't. Hindsight is 20/20 but you can't compare the outcome.

Drogba is a Chelsea legend, and Ronaldo shall deservedly get destroyed by the Portuguese media.

And I was saying he shouldn't go first....:lolbron:

Decent match.

Too bad Ronaldo forgot the only way this team wins is if he leads.
