It's a penalty, it doesn't count.

? Very strange comment. Barnes penalty miss against reading last year didn't count.

Still got to put them away. Keepers save more and more these days.

Like to see how often you beat the reading keeper from the spot from 5 pens. Grrrr

Could it also be an indication that Barnes may not be playing every game.

Barnes has played more this pre-season than any other player, wouldn't that mean more?

I don't think we should read much into him not taking this penalty. Especially when you consider the season before last whenever someone missed a penalty, someone else took the next one. (Though Barnes did take the next penalty after having one saved against reading last season), but this was our fourth pre-season penalty, and vicente was the fourth different player to take one. Nothing to read anything into, imo.

Somebody has to make way for Croft in midfield and the new striker if we sign one and perhaps that could be Barnes on the bench to start most games.

Let's hope so.

Navarro already has made way for Croft.

Not if Gus is true to his word that he is bringing in a player to help CMS score 20+ goals this season.
TBH I think he already has with Croft.

An attacking midfield, playing 10-20 yards further up field, won't half make a difference.
