Theres a list of awards celebrating 20yrs of the premiership . . Here are some of the categories and some of my choices . Best Manager : Sir Alex , then David Moyles (whos not short listed ! ) Best player : Eric Cantonna then Ryan Giggs Best goal : Probably one by Matt LeTissier , Best save : Could Myhills overall performance against Spurs count Memorable quote : probably something barmy on twitter ! Best celebration : the remake of Browns HT Pitch talk was pretty good.
Best manager Alex ferguson, joe mourinho Best player Terry Henry, Carl tevez Best goal Any of tony yeboahs bar and ins
Best Manager: Sir Alex, Arsene Wenger Best Player: Ryan Giggs, Alan Shearer Best Goal: Rooney's overhead kick V Man Citeh last season, Bergkamp turn and shot (V Newcastle I think) Best Save: Myhill at Spurs Best Quote: Keegan's rant at Sir Alex. Best Celebration: Not sure on this one.
Best Manager: Phil Brown Best Player: Ian Ashbee Best Goal: Geovanni v. Arsenal Best Save: Myhill at Spurs Best Quote: Anything from a man with a pink jumper draped over his shoulders, e.g. "when you cross the white line" Best Celebration: Taking the piss out of Phil Brown (just don't give the award to Bullard)
Best Manager: Sir Alex Best Player: Thierry Henry Best Goal: Beckham v Wimbledon Best Save: One of Schmeichels Best Quote: Can't think of any so ill go for "I am the special one" Best Celebration: Taking the piss out of Phil Brown at Man City
Best team: Schmicheal Neville Adams Keown Cole Ronaldo Viera. scholes. Giggs Cantona Henry I could swap each player with someone else, there have been so many brilliant premier league players.
Best Manager: Sir Alex Best Player: Giggs/ Scholes Best Goal: Bergkamp v Newcastle Best Save: Myhill at Spurs Best Quote: Got to be Keegan. But there's alot to mention- Joe Kinnear's insomnia rant, Deliah Smith pissed up on the pitch, Ron Atkinson having a go at Richard Keys, Tim Flowers saying that Blackburn had the bottle to win it and Rafa Benitez's rant at Fergie. Best Celebration: Bullard v Man City or Ketsbia kicking the hoardings in a tantrum.
Would agree this ^^^^ and Bullards re-hash of Brown @ Man City are far and away the best ever celebrations.
Best Manager : Sir Alex Ferguson by a long chalk Best player : Eric Cantona Best goal : This is a tough one! After all, Mark Hughes, Tony Yeboah, David Ginola, David Beckham, Geovanni, Juninho, Matt Le Tissier, they didn't do "Tap-In's" but for pure skill I'd put my money on Thierry Henry's (You know him, Lenny's brother) possibly his 4th goal against L**ds where he picks the ball up, deer in Arsenal's half and just gallups up the pitch, think he does a quick one-two then slides it into the net. Best save : Bo Myhill's game at White Hart Lane. You'll never see a better performance by a goalkeeper! End of! Memorable quote : "I'd love it, just love it..." by Kevin Keegan. Proof that Fergie was the best at breaking other managers down. Best celebration : Must be Ian Wright scoring for Westaaam and celebrating with Neil Ruddock by copying the ref pushed over by Paulo Di Canio. Comedy gold!
Agreed. It was universally accepted by all the media at the time that it was the best ever celebration.
I am sure that I read somewhere that although Bullard was the ringleader on the pitch it was McShane who was the instigator of the celebration.
Yeah Bullard was asked after the game where the idea came from and he said it was the Irish lads (McShane, Killer and Hunt) whoever scored had to do it and it just happened to be him who scored
You did indeed read that. I liked Asprilla's celebration. Disappointed that isn't in there. Le Tissier's goal against Blackburn is a bit special because it's right in the top corner. Other than the highest scoring prem game (Pompey 7-4 Reading) what's with all the other games involving the big clubs? Surely the best games are the ones where the little teams win?
Is there a list somewhere of the nominations or is it just choose what ever?? And if the list is there a link
