Five of the best penalty takers in Liverpool history
By Zubin Daver
James Milner – 19 penalties scored
James Milner is arguably Jurgen Klopp’s favourite player after Adam Lallana left Liverpool. He is currently the vice-captain of Liverpool and is ready to take on whatever role is required of him. However, when he is on the pitch, he is the designated penalty taker for Liverpool. He has steadily climbed this list of an all-time great at the club.
Klopp has mentioned in interviews that Milly is his designated spot-kick taker, however his lack of minutes means that the Yorkshireman doesn’t get to take them very often.
But when he does, he’s lethal. The #7 has only missed a penalty on two occasions in his five-plus seasons at Liverpool.
