If you got kidnapped by Somali pirates and had to choose one guy to save your life by making a penalty against Oliver Kahn in his prime, who would it be?


James Milner for me

Hands down sinisa mihajlovic for me. That left leg should be sawed off and put on display in a museum after he dies.

Not the best ever, but I’d go Moussa Dembele (19-2)

Yeah, that was unfortunate, but he never missed before that, I don't think...
Yea I remember he had a ridiculously good record. Of course he just missed when he was playing with the team he was a fan of growing up and had yet to score a goal at the time

I'd go Gerrard, a little bit of a homer pick, but he does have the 3rd most PK makes in PL history

Isn't Graham Alexander one of the best penalty takers? He made 56 and missed only 4.

But the history of the English bottling penalties is hard to overlook. Le Tiss was a magician though. RIP The Dell

Oh damn. I was just remembering what commentators were saying about Alexander when he scored a penalty against Arsenal, namely that he was a penalty specialist. Then I looked up his stats. But Le Tiss is obviously more impressive.

Is there anyone in world football with a 100% record, over let's say more than 15 penalties?
