Indeed and then Muzza comes on and scores. An embarrassment of riches

See http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/top-scorers. Only Gayle and Assombalonga have better goals per minutes played in the Championship for any player with 8+ goals.

Immense but most of us have known that. We really are spoilt with 3 great strikers. A 4th is a luxury we could do with but so far we've escaped having 2 out at once for more than a match. He doesn't even score TOO many penalties.

Spot on (as usual). Hazard and Balotelli had a LOT of success from the spot using the same technique. In a way it's a more gutsy approach than smashing it as hard as possible towards either corner. Despite the couple that he's had saved, the stats suggest he's very, very good at sending the keeper the wrong way and thus I'm glad we have him taking them!
Some interesting quotes from Matt Le Tissier talking about the particular technique Hemed uses: http://www.skysports.com/football/n...ea8217s-eden-hazard-does-says-matt-le-tissier
Not sure he sends the keeper the wrong way, more he waits until the keeper has chosen which way he is going, then Tomer simply picks the other side and the keeper has transferred his weight which means he's ****ed. Whichever, he's incredibly confident and his record is immense. This season whenever we get one I think we're going to score, and whenever we concede one I'm pretty confident of a Stocko save. Quite remarkable really.

Bang on. I didn't realise he did it at first and hated his pens as I assumed they were easily save-able if the keeper simply guessed the right way. Ironically, the one pen he missed matters absolutely zero this season (well +1 goal diff but you know what I mean).
To think Tomer was being keyboard warriored just a few weeks ago.

They've all had their go in the spotlight...Stockers, Stepho and Baldrick too.

I was basing that claim on the following which is interesting:
https://penaltykickstat.wordpress.com/2016/12/12/who-can-dummy-the-keeper-for-a-penalty/
When CH was discussing Stockdale's saves, he invoked Yaya Toure as the player who hits it hard and invariably scores, so that's a different (and seemingly more successful) technique
He's on the list still. Just you wait until we don't win a game he plays, they'll be out telling all you lickers that they told you so.To think Tomer was being keyboard warriored just a few weeks ago.
Depressingly true.
I'm already fearful of when Chris sends out an 'away' side v Barnsley.
The melts on here will once again go into meltdown.
Assuming 2 or 3 of their targets are called up, saving their favourites for the end of the month.

He sends the keeper the wrong way. He said himself he's chosen before he steps up where the penalty is going.

Okay. I'll bite.
I openly and honestly prefer Murray to Hemed and feel we def can't play them together. But do not see demanding more from certain players as keyboard warrioring, simply an expression of wanting the best for the team I love.
However the TH we've seen over the last four games is a completely different animal to last season and appears more hungry, which I can only put down to the added competition, which is great. Anway I digress.
But come on murder your darlings, nail your flag to the mast and outline who you prefer; none of this 'I support whoever wears the shirt' crud...

Those two sentences sit problematically alongside one another. I'd imagine what he says is stated with the aim of confusing opposition goalkeepers. He'd be some incredible psychic to know which way the goalkeeper is going with such a high degree of probability. See:

Silly old bat
That 'animal last season' scored 17 goals in his first in the Championship. He is a good striker, as is Murray.
Edit to add that McLoughlin has faced two penalties from Hemed this season, home and away. You'd think he'd know which way to go.

Noooo....you can't bait the superfans like that, they are sooooo sensitive
Nope.
Not a chance that's true.
He'll have a side he'd rather put it, but he undeniably switches, if the keeper commits that way.
