Penalty training. Burnley are a class act. Three smash and grabs, three goals. They could be our fiercest rivals all the way to the end. And if we have to go the playoff route, I want to know that we have mastered them as completely as possible. I know the theory that you can't recreate the penalty atmosphere, but you can do the next best thing.
Pactice them every training session. Then play for money say once a week. When the players are knackered after a hard session say. Take them under created pressure. There are top teams abroad that do this regular practice.
Also all the players should learn the Austin and Toure way. Make the keeper commit before shooting. That's how some spot takers rack up perfect scores. Blasting or placing is dangerous. I hope it doesn't come to playoffs but we need to be seriouly prepared.
