Another thing is the question of whether a successful penalty should count towards the golden boot.

I'd like whoever was fouled to be the one to have to take the penalty, then it should count in a Golden Boot race (or any competition) .

Though, of course, many of the best penalty takers are also amongst the best penalty box divers, eg Bruno Fernandes.

That ain't gonna work, Canada. What, for instance, if the player is seriously injured!
Could hear that snap. Made me cringe. No, the sound really, well, snapped my femur clean in half while fishing!

Think, if you are a striker, you shouldn’t be allowed to win it.

If you score more than 1 goal in a game, it shouldn’t count.

If a goalkeeper doesn’t make a save, they shouldn’t get a clean sheet and then win the Golden Glove award.

Players spend hours practicing penalties and it is part of the game, so, therefore, should totally be included.
