Adrian To Advise De Gea on Penalty Technique

There was major drama in the Europa League final last night as Villareal took the trophy after extra-time and a prolonged penalty shoot out. After all 10 outfield players successfully converted their spot kicks, it cam down to pistols at dawn between the goalkeepers with Man Utd's David De Gea fluffing his kick to hand the trophy to Villareal!

All of which brought back fond memories for Hammers fans of the night in January 2015 when under similar circumstances Adrian thumped home the winning penalty in a shoot out that ended 9-8 as the Hammers overcame the sticky Toffees of Everton. 


Comparing techniques, it is immediately evident that De Gea made a crucial error in takibg his kick - while Adrian took a long run up during which he jettisoned his gloves in a symbolic gesture of transition from netminder to outfield player, in contrast De Gea kept his gloves firmly on as he took the kick!!!

The message is clear - don't think like a keeper when you are the penalty taker. 

Meanwhile, hearty congratulations to 'little' Villareal who have shown that a club from a town of just 50,000 inhabitants can seize Europe's second most coveted trophy - should be easy for the East London giants next year!

  47. CAN I RECOVER BACK MY LOST FUNDS FROM A SCAMMER?
    How to recover your money from fake brokers, fake bitcoin investment platforms, forex schemes, binary, false investments proposals.
    I lost my hard earned money on a fake website. Claiming high return on investment after a monetary space of two days. I invested in their website. After which I couldn't gain any access to my capital and profits after 48 hours, I asked why I could not receive my money, then i was told to make an additional deposit of $26,000 for a dumb reason I couldn't remember. That was when I knew there was something wrong. I am a policeman with two beautiful daughters, lost my wife few years ago, which I promised myself I was going to do all I could to take care of my kids after the demise of my wife. But falling for such scam for acquisitive reason and puting my children's future at risk was quite unwelcoming. I went broke afterwards. During the course of trying to redeem myself after few months of getting scammed, i met with a referral on reddit who navigated me to a hacker on the internet. I patiently took some time to comprehend the core activities of this profound hackers. The Globalkos is a vulnerability coordination agency that performs a hack penetration guage to provides wealth recovery services for individuals and companies who have lost money through fraudulent online platforms. This organization was able to help me recover my lost bitcoins. I am truly pleased with the works of this hackers. If you really need to recover back your lost funds, contact theglobalkos@gmail.com or fundsrecovery.teams@gmail.com.
    However, You can stay away from false businesses online surely to be highly oned firm by making enquiries for their firm reference number (FRN) and contact details and barter their calls on the switchboard number and also never make use of the link in a website or an email from the firm propitiating you for an investment.
