Tielmens said he was told by a friend to hit it if he had the chance and sadly he did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing is, nowadays there are very few Ppl consistently good at long shots. In the 00s we would have been toast with Kepa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Kepinho will need him when we inevitably get to pens at the cwc so it’s good he got his confidence up Johnnyeye, Nero and DH1988 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milka 3,393 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 • The most penalty shootout saves in Chelsea history. • Key penalty saves in four cup competitions, including a final. • 10 overall penalties saved for Chelsea. It doesn't look like an expensive flop 🙃 Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other opponent (even City) I'll say play him because he's earned it, but if there's one team that really take advantage of his long shot weakness (the one part of his game Tuchel hasn't managed to erase) it's Liverpool.

NikkiCFC 8,334 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I dont remember this ever happened? Kepa 13 games this season 8 MOTM. And in other 5 he was also among 2 or 3 best players. Ofc if minutes played are not so low he would be POTY easily. Kepa this season can only be compered to best Messi, Ronaldo, Pele and Maradona seasons 😌 Never seen such a dominance...

MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Thought at the very least he'd save Konate's or Elliot's. Yes he was shocking (considering his standards) but the weight of blame on our wasted chances outweigh his performance in the shootout.

Laylabelle 9,536 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Sometimes it works...sometimes it doesn't. Who knows for next time. Maybe League Cup ones aren't his thing. Lost the last one...and the headline for that was his refusal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 honestly would take super cup and club world cup over league cup anyday even if they are easier to win in isolation. Just annoying that we AGAIN took out spuds in those damned two legged semis only to lose on fkin pens. Not happy with his approach to the pen. you could clearly see he was not waremd up to take a pen and took it like a goal kick. But tbf it was not kepa's fault only. we should have easily won in regular time with the gazillions of chances we had. Johnnyeye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're damned if you do, damned if you don't and for Tuchel, having done that once before to success he would have been questioned if he didn't do it and we lost.

Mário César 1,282 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Tuchel make the right decision its sad that is in eleven penaltys he can't make at least one save but there are things that coaches can't control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendy's confidence was sky high and that would likely more then make up for his lack of pk quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
