It was iconic given it was the early days of the PL and was first time I had happened by England’s new star.
But Figueroa’s for Wigan is a better goal from inside own half, actually hard to think of a cleaner dead ball strike goal so up there with the best.

Di Canio V Wimbledon for me.

Always had a soft spot for this one too



Best Irish Premier League goal? I loved this strike

What I loved about the Dalian Atkinson goal against Wimbledon that TJ mentioned is the chap that runs on the pitch with an umbrella while Atkinson is celebrating.

There's hundreds of top class goals.  Can't even think of 90% of them off the top of my head.

The DiCanio goal is the most overrated goal in history.   I think it was yer man Gary Parker for Aston Villa v Man City at Maine Road in 1992 scored a similar scissor kick volley and it is never even mentioned as a good goal never mind a great goal.


Some of my more off the beaten track favourites:
Yeboah v Wimbledon away 1995
Dalian Atkinson v Wimbledon 1992
Dalian Atkinson v Sheffield Wednesday 1992
Cantona v Wimbledon 1993
Scholes v Newcastle 2003
Scholes v Bradford 2000
Andy Sinton v Man City 1992
Les Ferdianand v Man Utd 1995


Pied Piper to: Baldrick, Brendan 88, 9Fingers, Borussia and more...

Patjim Kasami? I can't see how that goal can be beaten tbh. The technique was simply awesome, no other word can be used to describe it.


Honestly can’t remember his name but that must be him because that’s the goal alright. Perfect technique.

Ogbonna is about 1:45 into that video.

Two recentish ones in my head are Ogbonna for West Ham against spurs at Wembley and the Iranian chap who played for Fulham with a first time volley.

The MOTD lads are debating it now
Both Shearer and Wright have gone for Bergkamp v Newcastle 

What’s your best?
Very ambiguous category 

It’s between Le Tissier v Newcastle and Bergkamp v Leicester for me 

Can’t have Wilshere’s v Norwich in my top 10
