Penalty Takers

[StanSP]

Who would you be your top 3 choices, to take one during a game?

 

Some current players' career records...

 

Tielemans - scored 24, missed 5 - 82.75% success rate
Vardy - scored 28, missed 6 -
Maddison - scored 5, missed 1 

Daka - scored 4, missed 2

Iheanacho - scored 3, missed 2

 

 

Tete - scored 4, missed 0

[Tommy Fresh]

So not much difference between Tielemans and Vardy, despite some peoples beliefs Vardy is much better.

If it’s not Paul Gallagher I’m worried.

Vardy was bad at penalties when he first joined, I wonder if this record includes the championship. Tielemans will have taken a large number of penalties in the Belgian league as well

Career record, so yep.

 

All of Vardy's - goals and misses - have been for Leicester.

 

Youri's for Leicester only:

Scored - 7 

Missed - 2 (including today)

[Gubbins]

Does this include shoot outs? I'm positive maddison has missed more than 1 for us.

[Unabomber]

I’d give big Dan a go

[urban.spaceman]

Bring back Matty Elliott.

Probably Maddison, but given he is almost certainly off I’d more likely go for whichever striker is on the pitch. Not a great set of options. Given Youri is 100% gone I don’t see why he is on them. 

[Sampson]

Vardy is still our best penalty taker and I'd assume he'd still take them if he's on the pitch.

 

Don't really have much confidence in anyone else, but I'd favour Maddison over Tielemans I think.

Or Thomas but he may give it away 😂

[jayfox26]

Thought his pen today was a tad unfortunate as it seemed to hit a divet. I think that would have gone in at the kp.

Yes he was a div for missing it! 

[RowlattsFox]

I'd still back Tielemans more than anyone else. 

[cruzFOX]

Hitting the bar missing the keeper and coming way out is so Leicester city. Weirdest things are happening to us at the moment

[Stevosevic]

Tielemans goes the same way every time

Vardy is not a good penalty taker

...I never feel comfortable when Tielemans steps up to take one!!!

Absolutely no faith in him at all, he just seems like he has little faith in scoring himself.

Tielemans - scored 24, missed 5 - 79.16% success rate
Vardy - scored 28, missed 6 - 78.57% success rate
Maddison - scored 5, missed 1 - 80.00% success rate

Daka - scored 4, missed 2 -  50% success rate

Iheanacho - scored 3, missed 2 - 33.33% success rate

Tete - scored 4, missed 0 - 100% Success rate

[Mickyblueeyes]

Tielemans reaction to missing the pen really annoyed me. I recognise that is because of my bias as I know he is leaving. 
 

Watched it again and it was a decent penalty effort. The pitch ****ed him. The bobble meant it bobbled up and slightly changed direction. Genuinely unlucky.

 

I now understand the reaction

To be fair Youri's record is a lot better than I would have guessed

[Buzzell]

Vardy, Tielemans, Maddison.

I used to love his runs ups.

Your % figures are wrong.

 

Tielemans - 24 out of 29 scored - 82.76%

Vardy - 28 out of 34 - 82.35%

Maddison 5 out of 6 - 83.33%

Daka - 4 out of 6 - 66.67%

Iheanacho - 3 out of 5 - 60%
