i was at the game i was there .

oh why did nt ya say, im sure you being there put jan molby under enormous pressure.
id still have to go with gerrard just about mind

So whose best then Molby or Gerrard ?

gerrard

still dont get the enormous consequences of what would have happened that night if molby had missed , everton would have won the double not might they would have won the double , so it would only 17 leagues and no double that how big that penalty was .

gerrard

Am afraid I will have to go along with Molby myself who just edges out John Aldridge. I can remember the double winning season and it's still probably the fans greatest achievement we have celebrated even ahead of Rome 84 and Istanbul 05, so Molby's penalty at Watford in terms of importancy is probably the most significant penalty taken.

again the question was nt who scored the most important penaly ever. but who you would trust to take a penalty more. thats fine if you think molby, i think gerrard, but how important the game became at the end of the season has nothing to do with it. the peno gerrard scored at old trafford a couple of years back when we were narrowly beaten to the league, when gerrard stepped up to take it he had no idea wether we would go on to win the league or not but it was huge because if we did nt score we had no chance of winning the league. he did his part but unfortunatly we did nt go on to win the league. molby did his part and we went on to win the cup. but in the moment wen they took the peno neither of them knew what lay ahead so its irrelevent. its that game in that moment that matters not who had the better season from then on

but molby and dalglish knew if molby missed the season was over and seriously dalglish might have got sacked because of failure , it is one most of the most important penalty kicks in the whole of the clubs history possibly just below phil neal's in rome 1977 it was that important and you wouldnt trust molby ?

did nt say i would nt trust him. i think jan molby was a legend 1 of the best passers ive ever seen. but id pick gerrard bacause
hes scored some massive penaltys in massive games, the ones he missed were when he was younger and a bit more inexperienced i cant remember the last time gerrard missed a pen but he scored all the big ones in the pressure games.
