Rosicky admits Arsenal spotkick duties over

Tomas Rosicky admits he has lost his spotkick duties at Arsenal.

Rosicky was replaced by Samir Nasri for their Carling Cup defeat of Tottenham.

The 29-year-old thinks it could be a while before he is put on the spot again.

"He [Nasri] took both penalties great so I think [I will stand down]," Rosicky told arsenal.com. "I took the ball [against Sunderland] and spoke with Samir and Marouane Chamakh and they both weren't sure about it - so I said I will take it.

"But Samir took them well against Tottenham so that's the end of the story I would say."
