Messi's taken 103 penalties.

Scored 79.

Missed 24.

Quite a large amount to miss but let's not act like he misses every penalty.

Look at penalties for Argentina only.

Scored 9 in 16/17 season, only missed 1. I'd say that's not consistent :/

Missing 1 in 4 is enough to suggest you shouldn’t be on penalty duty.

Isn't about 1 in 4 basically statistically average? 

Because it's Messi obviously it's going to stand out a lot more, but unless you've got a more specialist penalty taker who is above average then it's not exactly a reason for him to give them up.

Iceland is a pain in the ass but if AFA wants to make it this year they have to find a way to unlock their solid defence.

Without a doubt. My issue is silly people using it as a tool to judge a footballer’s worth.

Maradona was at the Iran game last time and Messi scored a stoppage time winner and he is here this time also. 

Who knows maybe he is the jinxx.

Emil Halfredsson is the player of the match for me. He's been impeccable defensively.

Not sure that’s the case to be honest, just saying maybe he should hand over penalty duties to someone else? Something has to give eventually when you’re on free kick duty, penalty duty, corner duty, and the talisman for your team because you’re the best in the world.
