See my league mean penalty save rate breakdown for exactly how hard it has been over the last five years.Its really fucking hard to save penalties, in the history of the prem 80% have been scored.
Always wonder how laws of gravity do not seem to apply for these guys. Usually if someone gets tripped they go down with pull of gravity but these guys seem to fly on being tripped.It was definitely a penalty, but Nunez also did a massive dive to ensure it was given. By leaping so high in the air, prior to the contact with Ederson, and catching him on the thigh and not the ankle, he has effectively put our goalie out of action for a month. Before any of the usual suspects tell me it's bollocks, watch the replays. The Athletic described him thus: Nunez... launches... high into the air like a Uruguayan humpback whale leaping out of the ocean...

Crazy stats. Are penalty takers just better than they were previously or is it VAR making keepers stay on the line that’s made scoring a penalty easier.See my league mean penalty save rate breakdown for exactly how hard it has been over the last five years.
The best was 19% saved (19/20). It’s currently just over 6% for this season.
Only six keepers have even registered a penalty save in the league this season and, of those, only one has more than one save: Areola, who has faced 6 and saved 2.
He is also the only keeper to face 6 or more penalties to register any saves. Leno (6), Vicario (6), and Pickford (7) have allowed every penalty they’ve faced this season.
It’s not like he even gets a hand to them. You’d think his stats would improve if he just stood still,apparently only 1 pen didnt result in goal of total of 22 Ederson faced (PL only)
pen xG is around 0.8 or bit less, so on average 8 out of 10 is scored.
its hard to save a pen but its also hard imo concede 21 of 22.
The next few games will show just how good and how much we will miss him.Get well soon Eddie, some of here are sick bastard wishing him getting injured so Ortega can be played ahead him.
Doesn't matter which one is better, it's still fucking stupid if people wishing one of player getting injured because that reason.
There’s whispers he’s about to sign a new contract.Get well soon Eddie, some of here are sick bastard wishing him getting injured so Ortega can be played ahead him.

He's saved three, hasn't he? That I can bring to mind anyway.apparently only 1 pen didnt result in goal of total of 22 Ederson faced (PL only)

But that's pretty meaningless, out of 22 you'd expect a bad penalty or a miss, I don't think he's faced either. A good penalty won't be saved by any keeper.apparently only 1 pen didnt result in goal of total of 22 Ederson faced (PL only)

To shine your phone light on 70 mins tonight?I've been thinking about getting a new phone too.

Take your word for it,don't care enough to check.Nobody picks a keeper for penalties.Think last pen he faced was the first time he's dived the right way for a few years
Ederson must be one of the only keepers in the world who gets slated by their own fans because of pens.Take your word for it,don't care enough to check.Nobody picks a keeper for penalties.
Our keepers can’t win. Bravo could only save penalties and still got pelters!Ederson must be one of the only keepers in the world who gets slated by their own fans because of pens.

He never picked a keeper,for a game, because he was better at penalties. He may have changed his kepper in the last minute for a penalty shoot out. Not the same thing.Louis Van Gaal... "hold my beer""...
