The sensible thing would surely be to let the manager select his penalty taker and have the players get on with it as the insanely paid sportsmen they are.
You'll be wanting the manager/head coach to pick the team next.

Could you imagine Cloughie or Ferguson allowing this to become an issue, bad management by Emery he looks so weak now.

Yep. Basically confirms that Neymar and his camp are the ones running things

There would have been a much easier way to resolve this.

Cavani is clearly worried about his scoring bonus, or other goal-related bonuses.

So take those bonuses out of his contract and replace it with a clause saying that he gets a certain amount every time Neymar appears in public looking like a complete preening fucking rich-boy toss-piece. Additional bonuses per stupid hat and stupid piece of jewellery.

That way Cavani will be more than compensated for having the additional little bit of money on his already stupid fucking pay packet reduced.

What else do you expect at a club owned by Qataris. their answer to any problem: "OK, how much?"

I know they're rich but they're not that rich.

While it's understandable it's just not how people like things to be done.

As a fan you want the best penalty taker taking the penalties. Not the guy who has it in his contract.

But this nonsense is becoming more and more common.
They are a dying breed with these oil-money clubs. Who cares what they think.

Easiest way to stop this biggest dickus competition getting out of hand is to flip it.

Take the feckin penalty if you dare, miss, you're fined €1 million.

I've always thought it should be a rule that penalties should be taken by the player who wins it.

No, that would be unfair. If he's sent off, he can pick one of the ballboys to fill in for him.
