Frank Lampard’s decision to let Ross Barkley take penalties over Jorginho has been questioned by former Chelsea and England goalkeeper Robert Green. Chelsea made a losing return to Champions League action Frank Lampard and co. counted the cost of Ross Barkley’s late missed a penalty against Valencia. Chelsea eventually lost 1-0, thanks to Rodrigo’s second-half strike. "When you've got someone so good as Jorginho at taking penalties, then it seems strange to take it away from him," said Green on Radio Five Live's Football Daily podcast. According to football stats site Tranfermarkt , Jorginho has scored 13 penalties during his career - and has missed only one. Following the game, Chelsea boss Lampard confirmed that Barkley is the designated penalty taker.
