    Gerrard
    Lampard
    Ronaldo
    Shearer
    Fowler
    Ronaldhino

      Le Tissier is a great shout.

      He'd have been a great player for us.

          Id have thought Irwin would have been higher up that list, I always remember him being a great set piece taker. Likewise Molby to be honest.

            Wasn't he more of a free kick specialist?
            Lazio fans wouldn't put him forward..

              And Ronaldo..

              Henry is maybe in the top 10.

                He did take a mean free kick but was good from 12 yards too

                Put down any German. They all know how to take penalties

                    Mendieta or Hierro.

                    Never saw either of them miss one.

                          read somewhere that Le Tissier holds the premiership record for best penalty scoring ratio, so he would be a good shot. Molby apparently missed 3 for us, but still holds the club record as best from the spot.

                              Not directly player related, but when looking at the WC and EC, history shows us that The Czechs and Germans are the best penalty takers., Czechs never lost (3 times involved) a penalty shootout and germany only once out of six times.

                              In the other end of the scale, England are far the worst loosing 5 out of 6 shootouts, closely followed by Italy and Holland loosing 4 out of 6.

                              So basically hire a german to do the job
