shailen Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 Errmm? Kermo wasn't the first and only player to do this.. It happens all the time Haha but i guess it was the occasion. Play off semi final when we had so much riding on him scoring. If kermo had done that in a normal match, noone would have really cared...but it was the most important match of our recent history and he chose to chip it. I do think if he scored, people would have said wow look how cool he was...etc. and finally chicho did that when they were 4-0 up, doubt he would have chipped it! Errmm?

Guest Basildon Fox Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 When I saw this on Sky earlier I thought to myself that someone on here would bring the whole Kermo (downright stupid in a match of such importance) attempt up again. Thankfully no one has tried to justify it. Still a stupid thing to do but when you are 4-0 up late in the game it is less likely that a fluffed attempt will come back to bite you right on the arse.
Heart-Shaped Fox Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 He actually put it high though, unlike Kermorgant who put it about hip height. Look good when they go in, but Kermo thought he was better than he was and got cocky.
Houdini Logic Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 how the ref can tell the difference between those teams I'll never know...
GianEmmo Zola Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 Wes hoolahan did it for norwich too last season. But as someone said further up, the importance of kermorgants pen made it worse than say if he had done it in a league game.
Aleksz Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 I actually cringe every time someone takes one of these penaltys after kermogant.
samjohnson Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 That video just brought back a painful memory of standing in Cardiff watching a frenchman do that... You have just ruined my good day
gazfox9 Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 Can never defend Kermorgant for what he did, but Shevchenko done the same thing in thap epic champions league final shoot out against Liverpool. Crazy choice in such a big game.
Wymsey Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 Errmm? Kermo wasn't the first and only player to do this.. It happens all the time Even Eric Cantona tried to do one, but the ball landed on top of the net. Its all down to too much confidence in their abilities presumably.
DB11 Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 See, it looks good when it works. The keeper was trying loads to put him off though
Bert Posted 6 June 2011 Posted 6 June 2011 No penalty will ever be as bad as the Pires/Henry fook up.
