I’d go for Tielmans, however if Ollie wants them and proves on the training ground to be up for it, I’d let him have it. Imagine his confidence if was regularly scoring and getting the penalties. His stats would go through the roof.

Another vote for Youri Tielemans, ( assuming he is on the pitch.)

I think he took the first one against Lille and it was very smooth.
If Youri isn't on the pitch, then Watkins should be his apprentice.

Think we'll see SJM take some next season, he's scored for Scotland in penalty shoot outs before.

As they have to practice penalties against Emi I’m comfortable with whoever they choose. I bet they chat so much shit at one another on penalty training at Bodymoor.

Tielemans.

Agree with CD, I'd also like to see Martinez take one but only if we're 3-0 up. Disagree with CD on Watkins against Lille, he almost did a John Terry, slipping right before he shot.

He can slip every time if he still smashes the ball in. Could become his trademark. 🙂

Stan the Wham

I should just add that the above picture was after his 281 appearances for us when he had gone over to the dark side in the twilight of his career. Hence the advanced training facility.

My Dad told me two stories about him (cannot verify if true sadly)

First - He hit the ball that hard that once a keeper got knocked into the net by getting in the way of the penalty

Second - He once continued in a game when he actually had a broken leg

A most apt thread seeing as though he’s just missed one for Brazil.
