    From what I gather it actually follows modern stats wankery to put your best takers in the last spot.

    On winning the penalty shoot-out in soccer

    Soccer shoot-outs are highly dependent on strategy, not luck

    Though I'm not sure if the analysis holds up; I get bored to tears most of the time I try to read up on statistical analysis of football (or anything, really).

    They're trying to hoard them for resale. Hold on to them.

    Still, he might not move but at least he'll put away any chances that come his way.

    Paulp Ogba has been good, so he's either found his level or Madrid have ignored a couple of calls.

    This Middlesbrough team look so shit I reckon I could look tidy in this midfield.

    (It'll be 1-1 soon now I've said that, presumably.)

    Yeah we're not good, just overachieving because Wilderball works in the Championship.

    Commentator nailed it actually, just a mash of random players from our last four or five managers. Wilder said straight away it's a long-term job and no-one should expect anything this year, but the fans are getting giddy because we keep nicking last minute wins.

    Tuned in just to see that hideous Rashford miss.

    Ronaldo has been shiiiiit so I assume he's going to knock in a meaningless goal in the 93rd minute and celebrate like he's won it himself.

    Hoe does he miss that?

    Could have even slid it to Ronaldo if they didn't hate each other.

    It was inevitable.

    They are reet pants though and a good team would have stuck a handful past them.

    Hopefully with Ronaldo choosing to go fifth and skying it to cost us.

    FEC must have thought he had won it when that cross/shot slammed against his head.

    That was the only way one of these teams was winning lol. Decent penalties but the keepers were making it obvious where they were diving every time
