Here is where those "Would Donovan make a difference on this team" threads come into play.

Think what you want of him, he is our best PK taker in the pool.


Just sayin, Over the last two years, Donavan is 0/2 in pk's in the MLS. He hasn't taken any this year. I'm guessing the info is accurate, it was MLS.com.

2014 0/0
2013 0/2

But

2012 2/4
2011 4/4

Also just sayin, if he were in Brazil, I would want him taking one also.

He is also 100% for the USMNT.

I believe Clint (most likely our current option) is 2/3. A goalie got a hand on one of the makes. I would be so nervous if Clint steps up. You knew it was going in with the Donovan Pk in 2010.

You do realize Dempsey made one against Belgium last year, right?

Since i'm all about sources supporting my POV

U.S. captain Clint Dempsey has taken the majority of the Americans’ penalty kicks in recent times, so he seems all but certain to be one of Klinsmann’s top choices.

Are you suggesting one of our best goalscorers (and Captain America) would not be a top 5 penalty taker?

I wasn't the one saying that he never makes one. I definitely have Dempsey taking one.

true, but yeah, I've never seen him make one. Every time I seem to watch, be it for Fulham or the USA he misses. Must be me. If we go to penalties I'll shut off the TV. Patriotic duty.
