So many shootouts seem to last an age now with very little fantastic saves or bad misses. They're nowhere near as exciting or nail-biting these days.
So is it a case of :
: Players are technically superior nowadays
: Keepers are a lot worse
: Players are just paid too much nowadays so don't really give a shit anymore, hence they don't get as nervous as previous generations.
I personally think its the latter. I don't think Players truly care as much as they used too especially when you see all the hugging and what not even in big Derby clashes.
Penalty shootouts are such drivel now I'd rather just scrap them for a golden goal.
