England coach Fabio Capello has already chosen his top five penalty takers ahead of Sunday's clash with Germany.

The Mirror says Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, Wayne Rooney and James Milner have been taking spot kicks in stadiums before their Group matches as part of Fabio Capello's meticulous planning.

And Manchester City's Gareth Barry - who used to be Aston Villa's penalty specialist - is the fifth penalty taker and has stepped up his practise since returning from injury.

Capello, whose team will wear their "lucky" all red kit, fears Sunday's clash will end in penalties and knows that to advance to the last eight England will have to end Germany's 100 per cent shoot-out record.
