    25 career penalties for club and country.

    Scoring a total of 83 goals for club and country.

    Hello Kris Balotelli Boyd.

    Wonder what of his 83 goals are freekicks to.

    Could end up with only about 40-50 goals from open play is his career so far.

    Dunno mate, it'd be interesting though.

    Graham Alexander had a brilliant penalty record and played 1,000 games so he may be in with a shout.

    Don't see us scoring more than 1 goal, we will have to defend well and just try and push up and counter well, best way to play this one would be similar to Barcelona. They are a good team, they beat Barca last season in CL at home as well 2-0.

    Robert Prosinečki (part of the great European Cup winning Red Star side) never missed a penalty.

    And no, I didn't Google that... Just now :smiley-laughing002:

    How many did he take?

    Le Tissier was also fantastic, 48/49 I believe.

    Matt le tessier would be the first name that comes to mind with that record, I'd love to know as well.

    I don't know but he did score one against us in 1998. Also scored one in the penalty shoot out in the European Cup final.

    Celtic's best penalty taker is Mike Haughney 23 out of 25.

    The Dead Club's was Johnny Hubbard who scored 65 out of 68 for them. Just shows how many penalties they * were getting as he only played 238 games for them. That means on average he took e a penalty every 3.5 games :56: FTSFA!

    Cant remember the lads name but there used to be a Paraguayan goalkeeper who was pretty prolific from the spot.

    Chilavert is the only one I can think of off the top of my head. Ring any bells?
