McGinn and Tielemans would seem to make the most sense.  Just need them to practice 20 per day for the next few years.

"Or just pass it back to Martinez and recycle it"

Needs to be someone that nearly always plays. Rogers? I genuinely wouldn't be against giving Martinez a go but as spoilsport Unai went mad at him when he went up from a corner, that won't be happening.

Emery named Rogers last night when talking about possible penalty takers but when we went out to Brentford on a penalty shoot-out, Rogers wasn't involved and Emery said afterwards that they didn't have any data on him taking penalties. Someone then posted a video of him scoring one for England U21's. Glad they found that missing data.

Martinez would be the only one I'd trust to not have a meltdown under the pressure. The rest of them remind me of my own approach to entering a shop when I'm not sure what I want and I just know some twat's going to ask me if I need help. Of course I need fucking help, just not from you, and not now.

Anyway, penalties...we should try to score them more often.

I presume our set-piece coach finds penalties too dull to practice.
