I think he's missed at least 3 (Millwall at home - scored the rebound, Gillingham in the last minute and today). He's probably only taken about 6.

Thats not good is it?..Noticed that Sandaza banged one in on youtube for Dundee Utd. Think that job may fall to him now?

I don't make him out to be that bad, Just point out he is not one of the best in the league, and he misses far to many sitters

You really have something against Murray, don't you? To be honest it is a bit pathetic. I don't know why people can't support the team rather than slagging off our players.

As for the original post, he misses one penalty and you feel the need to say he cannot take penalties. What exactly is the point of that? Everyone misses penalties sometimes.

Correct. Neither is he half as good as alot of people on here make out

Why do you constantly keep criticising him? He played well staurday but no you cant accept that you have to make a lame thread and slate him. He misses one penalty and you use it as a chance to slate him again. Get behind the players and stop trying to put them down when there is no need its truely pathetic.

Because by my estimation (I stand to be corrected but I wont be far off) he has missed half of the penaltys he has taken in competitive games. He simply hits them as hard as he can at a perfect height for the keeper. 50% is not nearly good enough when the national average miss rate is about 10%.

He missed a lot of them. He is not a prolific striker and he is not a penalty taker despite what some like to think.

Fair enough, that is your opinion. However, that does not explain why you felt the need to say "know" he can't take penalties rather than being the only one thinks this which is correct.
