Should deek give up penalty duties? Thoughts?

No.
Not yet anyway, I'd give him one more chance and then possibly hand the mantle onto Stokesy.

NO, Deek is a far better dead ball hitter, well until I can see what Stokes or anyone else can do, what about Miller for penalties.....

Yes. I'll be worried if he has to take one in the shoot-out later on. If we can hold on for a draw that is.

I think he should keep takin them as long as he has the confidence, which i think he oozes. Obviously if it gets silly like missin 4/5 in a row then i think it should be handed over,

Yes, two and a row should mean a shot for someone else.

Time for a change
Deeks is a great ball striker he just does not strike pens
Pens are about confidence and Deeks is shot at the moment

By the time we get our next penalty, deek will be back on form...
But i think if you win the penalty, you should have first dibs on it:agree:

Don't agree with that, your best pen taker should take it. Not sure if that is Deek at the moment. His pen tonight was shocking. Rankin/Stokes?

Deek should just give up...... Petulance, arms in the air, spoilt kid performances are just pitiful......

and sadly, the usual from Deek. I hope Yogi puts a rocket up his erse soon, or I could see him going. (Deek, not Yogi).

If he was on bench for a game or two he would ask for transfer anyway !
so maybe strachan was right about him (to big for his boots):dummytit::dummytit::dummytit::dummytit::dum mytit::dummytit:

Aye okay then.
Top scorer this season, one of the best players at the football club and he should not have played tonight.

When he can be bothered.

What was his contribution tonight?? Not a great deal........

I reckon it's time to give someone else a shot at the penalties also. Would pick Stokes personally although Rankin used to take them for ICT if I remember correctly so could also do the job maybe.
When he can be bothered.
So would you have dropped him for tonight's game then as was suggested by the poster I was replying to?
Top scorer this season, on the back of a game where he has already hit the net?

Wasn't there mate but you don't pick a team in hindsight.
He would have started tonight's game if I was the boss, plays poorly then of course he kicks his heels on the bench but he's not done too bad so far.

Never said that at all. I was referring to his attitude in general, not his skill or goal tally.
I'm of the opinion that it's always worth playing him because there's a chance he'd conjure something out of nothing - my point was that his attitude is pretty poor and if he put in more effort and cut out the petulance, we might see more of the good Deek.

Same as he's always been though, he cuts all that out then he isn't at Hibs.
If he can be bothered or not he can still do something in a match that very few at Hibs can.

Benji should have come on after Deek missed the penalty.

True, but I worry that it's happening less and less. He was anonymous at Hamilton apart from missing the penalty and did nothing else of note in that game. He has a tendency to drift in and out of games, although admittedly he wasn't too bad tonight (apart from the poor penalty).
He's just a very frustrating player I guess, no amount of wishing his attitude will change is going to work!

For me, penalties are a about a players confidence and Deeks has never lacked confidence IMO
But, I'm sure Deeks will step aside for the next one and he should - not because he's a bad penalty taker but it's just part and parcel of team football.
He'll be back don't you worry about that.
