Manchester City goalkeeper Joe Hart feels Mario Balotelli is the best spotkicker taker in the world.
Hart admits he doesn't normally get near the Italian's training ground pens.
"Yeah, I hate to say it, he's one of the best I've ever faced," Hart told City's website.
"I need to get inside his head and I reckon if England played Italy, I would be able to stop him!""He's got this mad ability where he doesn't need to look at the ball. If you don't move he kicks it in the corner; if you do move he kicks it the other way - it's almost impossible to stop.
