    And only what 8 England caps?

    We always have valued pace and power over technical ability though, it's ****ing shameful tbh.

    How much would he be worth today?

    If he'd played for Utd he'd have 100 caps. Dodgy as **** those Mancs.

    What about Figueroa against Sunderland or Lowton v Stoke as left field ones? Even Crouchy against City.

    Loads of brilliant goals over the years.

    Was an incredible strike ... Anfield was completely silent as it flew in the net. Was not a looping shot either - sheer power driver.

    Show me a Robbing Flower overhead volley against United or Everton and I'll let you have this one.

    To be fair he has a point, it's up there more due to the occasion / moment rather than the skill.

    Plenty of better overheads over the years imo.

    Can't find one right now!

    Look great goal but massive fluke. It's the Leicester City of goals.

    Never got the "bottler" and "scared to join a big club" thrown at him.
    In an age of utter disloyalty the bloke is ridiculed for showing the kind of loyalty we can only dream of players showing today

    Yeah I know, I'm agreeing with both of you, fantastic moment due to the occasion of last minute winner in a derby but not the greatest technically <ok>

    There were 3 better just from last season.

    Crouch and Benteke have both scored better too.

    Good shout that. Off the shoulder, round the keeper, back of the net. All whilst running and turning. Quality.

    So does opposition/occasion not count?

    Let's be honest, Vidic would have just flattened Bergkamp

    I thought it was best goal?

    Most important goal was probably a tap in ffs <laugh>

    Torres vs Vidic was always great fun. Vidic absolutely clueless every time!
