The Wimbledon free kick is in there too.

Almost 25 years later, and that type of goal is still being described as "Le-Tissier-esque" (see link below). There's not many players who can claim to 'own' a particular type of goal. Being twatted against the underside of the bar at 100mph will always be known as a 'Yeboah' to me, but I can't think of many other examples.

EDIT: I guess a diving header from outside the box could be a 'Van Persie'
