...a dedicated peno taker (as TP said in his interview)?
Got mixed feelings about it - I understand sometimes players are just up for it (or not) at the time, but then again I'd hate to see a repeat of the handbags between Higgy and Hoefkens a few years ago...
What d'you reckon?

I think Ethers has the role.
Mind you, next time we get a penalty he'll have probably retired. We've had five years worth in one game today.

I think its better to have some sort of 'order of merit' but after scoring both today I don't suppose we can question it.
I never noticed but apparently Kenwyne properly spat his dummy out after the second penalty according to my mate two seats away.

Ric always worries me as he always rolls them in the same spot. Only takes them when he wins them though so i'd be happy with Matty continuing being the dedicated taker. I'd love to see Huth take one as I think he'd try to take the keepers head off!

Higgy takes good penno's
Beattie & Berry best penno takers in my time
Kav - the worst

To be fair Walters took it perfectly and Jones didn,t deserve a goal after a below par performance.. |

Keep sharing the penos around should mean that goalkeepers can't second guess the taker's intentions so often in my opinion. Every peno taken in the Prem will be watched over and over again, and goalkeepers have a good idea of where the penalties takers are going to put their pens (think of how many pens Sorro and Begovic have saved over the past couple of seasons as proof).
Also, you never know just who is going to be on the pitch when penos are awarded, so to have several options amongst the team is a good idea.

I wouldn't let Fuller near a penalty he's shite at them. I think their should be an order, it just solves a whole host of problems.
Higgi would be my first choice if he plays then Ethers.
