|

6MarkNobleMark Noble sends goal keepers the wrong way 87% of the time during penalty kicks says @PenaltyKickStat

The twitter account dedicated to statistics on penalties claims is the best penalty taker in the world when it comes to sending the keeper the wrong way.

The social media accounts  lists “Mark Noble 87% Hazard 77% TMuller 68% YToure 55% Messi 46% Ronaldo 38%”

Seeing the stat Mark Noble took to twitter himself to comment “Decent 5 a side team with me as sub” 😂😂⚒⚒

West Ham fan Jack Lebeau replied: ” You’d easily get in over Yaya Toure mate. He’s just a poor man’s Kouyate and we know who is better out of you & him in the CM”.

Noble has missed just 3 penalties from 31 taken, his last miss was August 2014 against Spurs. The two previous misses were against Chelsea and Hull in 2009.

In contrast Ray Stewart scored 76 penalties for West Ham  and missed 5
Julian dicks missed 5 and scored 34 penalties for the Hammers.

    More rubbish reporting based on stats . . Noble hits and hopes . If you want to talk about pens at West Ham talk about Ray Stewart or Julian Dicks who were both top players as well as great penalty takers . If this crap is meant to make us forget Noble’s terrible performances this year

  • Ray Stewart scored 76 penalties 86 attempts, Dicks scored 35 and missed 4.

    Both Stewart and Dicks hit them as hard as they could

    He doesn’t send the goalkeeper the wrong way. He waits for the goalkeeper to decide which way he is going to dive and then he sends the ball the other way. Classic penalty tactic. Works every time.
