A lot of people here are only dismissing his ability because he played for Rangers. Ermm

It was overrated.  Bounced up lovely teed up for him to lob it over Hendry and then the finish while very good is not something you would swoon over that no other player could do.

Technically it was good but nothing extraordinary.  The best part of the goal was probably having the idea to do it.

You are right its not the technique that really makes the goal stand . Its the way he did it . He had very little time to way up the situation and do it . It's was good old street football constantly  thinking ahead outwitting the opposition which you see very little of nowadays .

The only footballer I can think of with any of that street football or flair in the premier league today is James Madision, he is very unpredictable . People talk about the technically brilliance of those man city players but they play like computerized robots .
