Frank Lampard defends Jorginho after his latest spot-kick miss against Krasnodar but admits he hasn't yet held discussions over who will be Chelsea's future penalty taker

Frank Lampard has claimed he will hold discussions with his Chelsea stars over who will take penalties following Jorginho's latest failure from 12 yards.

The midfielder hit the post with his first-half spot-kick in Wednesday night's 4-0 Champions League win at Krasnodar, his second failure in his last four attempts having also missed against Liverpool earlier in the season.

During the game in Russia, Chelsea were awarded a second penalty after Jorginho went off following a substitution, with Timo Werner emphatically dispatching.

Lampard though insists he will speak to his team about who will take penalties in the future but claims he still has full faith in Jorginho who previously had scored from his first eight spot-kicks.
