Beren Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Steven Taylor. He just wants it so much! And if he missed he'd be angry with himself and would make sure we didn't concede. Crazy mofo. Him, or Shola. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggio Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 I think Geremi will take them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Of all the names mentioned i'd probably be most confident with Geremi stepping up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlito Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 I'd agree with Shola taking them if he's on the pitch. I can't recall him ever missing one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keefaz Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Shola if he's about. Very good pen taker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Liam Liam O Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Owen should take them as our premier goalscorer. I've said this before but we've been spoilt over the years by Shearer's amazing consistency from the spot. Everyone has to accept the fact that whoever takes them now will miss some. That's why I think it's daft some are discounting certain players because they missed a couple in the past. Shearer has missed more than you would think for us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NSG Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 It should be Martins though I would be happy with Owen or Viduka taking it too.Definitely not Ameobi. Why not Shola? If he is on the pitch, he is our best penalty taker IMO. Why not Milner? He will be on the pitch more than Shola and he seems to be a very good penalty taker. Don't recall discounting Milner.

Wullie Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Milner has missed for us before, maybe Watford last season? Not that that rules him out or anything like. Emre's was tidy against Pompey last season, I'd happily see him taking them when he's on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest prestonj1989 Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 I woud have Owen or Martins depending on who is actually playing as i think BS will play Viduka and one of the others most of the time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 I reckon one of the defenders should take them. I have no idea why Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keefaz Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Bet Rozey a bit tasty with the pens. Would probably try chipping them every time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alpal78 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Since we are on the subject of penalty taking , any idea why Arsenal have this policy of not having the player fouled, to get up and take the penalty himself even if he was the designated penalty taken (case in point RVP yesterday). Is there a superior Wenger logic behnid this and hence something we should adopt or should we just go with the player that has been designated?

Did RVP just not take it because he missed last week? According to the ESPN reporter (though not sure how he would know), it was becauseof Arsenal's said policy, and not because RVP missed the last penalty.
