Lionel Messi has missed four penalties for both club and country this season,and he has admitted he is deeply frustrated with his success rate from penalties this season .
He says he is still the No.1 spot-kick taker for Barcelona but concedes he must improve his record, especially given that goalkeepers are beginning to do their homework on his tactics from 12 yards (at this point i think Leo must be a smart one)
He revealed in an interview :
"Yes there is a lot of frustration that I have missed a lot of penalties, both for the club and for Argentina,"
"I am the designated penalty taker, but when the goalkeepers study you they know your ideas more. It is true to say that a well-taken penalty is very difficult to stop, but now it's more complicated when it comes to taking a penalty.
"These are things in football, but it is true that I have made poor decisions, such as against Manchester City, when the goal would have given us a very important advantage.
"But like everything in football, we are fortunate that every three days there is another game - you cannot keep regretting what happened."
