So now Frank Lampard is out of the Euros and with Rooney suspended as well as Gerrard being scared to take a penalty for England at tournaments in non penalty shoot outs....
WHO IS GOING TO TAKE THE PENALTY? (if we get one, without going to shoot out...if we get that far)

    Gerrard definitely will but I think Ashley Cole is probably our best taker. (Good at taking penalties too)

    Ashley cole was the first person that came to my mind. He would defo take one in a shootout aswell.

    Maybe Terry could slip up for one :D

  • They should call up Nicky Bailey just in case we do actually get a penalty..........

    It's be Gerrard if fit. Rooney second choice when he comes back in.

    That Stewart Downing has been knocking them in this year too, he'll be confident.

    It's a pretty feeble looking squad IMO.

    Agreed, would be slightly better for Richards, Carrick (though I'm not really a fan, he's just better than Henderson) and Lennon.

    Feel a bit sorry for Hodgson, he's not got a lot to work with compared to the talent at the disposal of the likes of Del Bosque or Low.

    But that is what Hodgson is best at looking at his record to be fair. Turning average players/teams into something that is greater than the sum of it's parts.

    Watch out. I think Pauline will be taking the pens.

    Joe hart has a good penalty record.

    Basically scott Parker, carrying a bit of an injury and stevie G, who hasnt played all season have to play the full 90 in every game. On paper we are now comparable with ireland.
