I know he will take one like - but none of his pens for us have filled me with confidence, he’s missed 2/4 hasn’t he?
the ones he scored weren’t great

Took good ones against WBA and Birmingham I thought. If it goes to penalties I think Wilson may well save one or two.

He has a good shot on him. The sort that just smashes it down the middle.

Penalty shootouts are a lottery. On paper Middlesbrough have a far better lineup but really on the day I think it comes down to mentality.

if you saw the notts county game maybe not
they brought on a keeper just for the shoot out, and his 2 saves were worldies

It's obviously a lottery but Wilson isn't going to save one. Granted he did at West Brom last season but he's not a towering keeper like the Notts County lad on Saturday.
Equally, I don't fancy Vik on penalties. Hamer, Allen etc aren't good finishers really.

Absolute tower of a keeper.
I winced when I saw them change the keeper but then I saw the size of him and I wouldn't want to take a penalty.

Cian Tyler’s pretty tall if that’s all we’re after. Come to think of it we should stick him up front and save cash on Hudlin

Someone on Twitter put Wilson-Esbrand as one of the 5 penalty takers. 1) why would you put that kind of pressure on young lad who's played just 14 championship games. 2) his corners are terrible, which doesn't inspire confidence with a dead ball.

A jog around a pitch to determine if you are fit?

He’ll need a month to get over the blisters.
He's scored one goal in 61 matches for us and missed some sitters.

The West Brom pen weren't a great pen, but he scored so can’t really knock it.
the Birmingham one was well placed, ultimately he’ll take one of the first two and I hope he scores and proves me wrong.
At the end of the day our penalty shootout record is less than stellar so ideally we avoid it

After 2 hours of play and the customary lack of subs I’ll be impressed there’s 5 players left standing never mind taking penalties. If we’re going to go out I would rather in normal time without some poor sod having to miss a spot kick.

Funnily enough I was saying this to a friend earlier, is he still contracted to Huddersfield? Or can we call him back - keep a sub back for pens?

Surely we can recall him now their season is over? Keep him, Godden and Palmer on the bench, bring all three on at 120 mins.

Waghorn contract with Huddersfield is till 30th May. I don’t know the technicalities but not sure he can play for us till post 30th May. Play-off final is 27th May.

Pretty sure you can only recall during a transfer window.
