Rather than just chilling, Pete will have spent that time doing his revision, on their takers.
To add an extra layer, other than film and training work with all 3 goalies, I wouldn't tell him.

No point having Brez mithering on all game.
Keep him relaxed then say 'on you go, and save 2'.

You could argue that we should bring on Spanish Dave as he's the normal penalty taker
After JFC's performance on Thursday I have SD already on the pitch.

It's worked in playoffs before didn't Leicester bring on a keeper in the 118th minute then duly scored a minute later. Not saying the keeper directly influenced the goal but did the change affect the opposition.

Surely Bobby Robson missed a trick in 90 when he could have replaced Shilton for Beasant who was a renowned penalty saver.

It's a yes for me if we have a sub available.

Well it was a nice thought while it lasted.

Buckley's not playing 120 minutes.

If we still need a goal March, KLL and CMS can't stay on the bench.

Just my take on this,but i reckon penalties needed to be sorted before kick-off in as much as who is taking them and how then kicker one knows beforehand where it is going and he has practiced it that way and so on.
