Hmm, I remember that tactic. But the thing with that is, you still have to have some ability to take one, be it placement or power. Confidence is also a huge factor. Another problem is little squabbles on the pitch about someone wanting to take it (i.e. Drogba or Taarabt). AVB said they assign 2 takers on the pitch and they decide between themselves, so I assume on a normal day it's between Lampard & Anelka. This works better I believe, because if one doesn't feel confident, the other can step up.
