4forDevries Posted August 4, 2019 Author Share Posted August 4, 2019 (edited) Clare missed his last pen in the shoot out. What's more, they never looked convincing before that IMO. If the keeper guesses the right way and gets down its saved. Michael Smith's pens on the other hand left both keepers routed to the spot.

But good chance he will not be on the park in the last 20 mins when some frantic defending and attacking occurs and some tired mistakes etc that awards a penalty. You need a number 2 taker I think.

Brighton Jambo Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Sean Claire has been excellent on penalties and if on the field should remain the first choice taker, no question.

cruzabic Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Clare...he missed one in a nothing penalty shootout and was a couple inches from a cracker.

Igglepiggle Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Clare's penalties last season looked convincing, and Naismith missed two before being taken off them so would imagine it will still be Clare despite his miss at East Fife.

Absolute Scenes Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Non contest, every one of Clare’s penalties have been cracking bar last week. You don’t drop someone whose scored them consistently after missing one. Naismith missed too many and his were too lazily taken. Clare has good technique.

BackOfTheNet Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Sean Clare always. Anyone saying anything else is conveniently forgetting their misses (Walker, Naismith, Smith) or is expecting someone they’ve not seen take a penalty be better than Clare who is the first person since Hartley I’ve been genuinely confident when he’s taking them and was surprised when he missed last week. This really shouldn’t be a thread, there’s no question it should be Clare. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have Clare ahead of Walker every day of the week. I hope both players step on this season but to suggest anything Walker has done so far this season (not to mention his time in England and his last few months with us last time) should put him ahead of Clare is nonsensical.
