Chelsea boss Frank Lampard says he will discuss with his players whether to stick with Jorginho as his side's regular penalty taker after the Italian missed a second successive spot kick in Wednesday's Champions League win at Krasnodar.
Jorginho missed from 12 yards in last month's Premier League match against Liverpool and followed that up by crashing his effort against the post at Krasnodar, although it had little effect on the result as Chelsea ran out 4-0 winners.
"Jorginho has had an incredibly successful rate of scoring penalties in his career, particularly at Chelsea," Lampard told reporters.
"My feeling is when you take as many penalties as he does, there can be periods when you miss one, and sometimes there can be periods where you miss one or two. I experienced that as a player."
Jorginho was substituted by the time Chelsea were awarded another penalty, which Timo Werner dispatched in the 76th minute.
"Timo Werner, I know he's very capable to take penalties," Lampard added. "We have other players that can as well, so I'll talk with the players afterwards to see how we move forward."
Callum Hudson-Odoi, Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic also got on the scoresheet, with Ziyech in particular impressing.
The Morocco international was making his full debut since joining the West London club from Ajax in a £37 million ($48 million) in the summer from Ajax, and left an impression on his manager.
"I was very excited to get his quality in the team," said Lampard.
"I thought his performance was very, very good when you consider he hasn't started a match since March, when the Dutch league finished."
Chelsea ratings
CHELSEA RATINGS: Edouard Mendy, 8 – It was a quiet game for Mendy against a team that offered very little in front of goal. The 28-year-old parried the ball when he had to and was comfortable dealing with the occasional ambitious strike. Communication was a stumbling point at times, it appeared. AFP
Cesar Azpilicueta, 8 – Possessed a great deal of energy and deserves a strong rating after helping to record Chelsea’s third clean sheet on the bounce. Azpilicueta’s movement seriously helped Blues’ efficiency in midfield. AFP
Kurt Zouma, 7 – Early on, he appeared to not be quite reading the game well. But he displayed outstanding levels of commitment when required and deserves to have another clean sheet to his name. AFP
Antonio Rudiger, 7 – His link-up play with Zouma in the early minutes was concerning, but fans could hold few grudges with Rudiger in the second half in only his first appearance for Chelsea this season. AFP
Ben Chilwell, 6 – It may have come as a surprise to some of Chelsea’s faithful that Chilwell wasn’t taken off earlier than he was. The full-back looked tired at times and in need of a rest. Furthermore, his link up play with Callum Hudson-Odoi did little to inspire the visitors’ play moving forward. AFP
Jorginho, 5 – He gifted possession away in the opening minutes to allow Krasnador their first sight on goal, a moment that perhaps epitomised his overall performance. A missed penalty did him no favours either. AFP
Mateo Kovacic, 6 – Started the second half by drilling a well-timed shot just wide of the hosts’ right post. But it was otherwise a quiet game for Kovacic who delivered a no-thrills performance. AFP
Hakim Ziyech, 8 – A full Chelsea debut to remember for Ziyech as he scored a quality individual goal to take the game away from the Russian hosts in the final 10 minutes. Ziyech’s play and movement was superb, and he was rewarded with an intelligent late goal that fooled more than one home defender. Reuters
Kai Havertz, 7 – His first touch was a great asset for the visitors as they controlled play in large parts of the game in midfield. Excellent close control allowed Havertz to quickly manoeuvre the ball around dangerous areas. Reuters
Callum Hudson-Odoi, 7 – Had little possession in the first half, but grabbed himself a first Champions League goal when a scuffed shot somehow found its way through the legs of the home ‘keeper. AFP
Timo Werner, 8 – Showed Jorginho how to take a clinical penalty when slamming a right-footed effort into the hosts’ left corner in the game’s closing minutes. Elsewhere, Werner thrived in pockets where he possessed a strong ability to keep the ball. His first touch and pace stood out. Reuters
SUBS: N’Golo Kante (for Jorginho, 71'): N/R Was a steady influence in the middle when he came on, which was what Chelsea needed at a crucial point in the game. Reuters
SUB: Mason Mount (for Kovacic, 71'): N/R The wide player worked diligently at both ends of the pitch. Reuters
SUB: Christian Pulisic (for Hudson-Odoi, 71'): N/R Not a bad 19-minute cameo, the US international scored one goal and earned his side a penalty. AFP
SUB: Tammy Abraham (for Ziyech, 81'): N/R Abraham only played the last nine minutes but he was heavily involved in Chelsea’s late onslaught, setting up Pulisic for the fourth goal. Reuters
SUB: Emerson Palmieri (for Chilwell, 81'): N/R He had little to do after replacing Chilwell, but will be happy with a clean sheet. AFP
Chelsea moved up to four points at the top of Group E after two matches, level with Sevilla who beat Rennes 1-0 in Spain.
Dutch forward Luuk de Jong broke the deadlock in the 55th minute, after Sevilla had dominated the first half, when he raced to meet a cross from Marcos Acuna and found the net with a sidefooted volley.
Julen Lopetegui's Europa League holders had a total of 22 shots on goal to the visitors' two, hitting the target nine times and seeing Joan Jordan rattle the crossbar in the second half.
