#9 Sergio Aguero (81.25%)
As an avid Premier League fan, I have seen my fair share of games from England’s top division. Even then, perhaps the most bizarre game I have ever watched was Manchester City 4-1 Tottenham in the 2014-15 Premier League season.

In that game, Sergio Aguero took an absurd three penalties- more than some regular penalty takers take in a season. Aguero missed one of the three- rather rare for the Argentine at that point as he had made 94.4% of his penalties until that point. Since then, Aguero’s performances at the spot have been mediocre as he has only made 73.3% of his penalties.
In fact, the Argentine has missed his five penalties in two years- numbers that suggest that looking at his career statistics may be overrating him. Three of those misses were meek shots at comfortable heights for goalkeepers while the other two were off target. This poor recent form is an indication why Messi still may be preferable to Aguero when it comes to taking penalties, even if the latter’s current record is better.
