"Best" goal in Premier League History.
- Thread starter 80s Shorts
- Start date
They are better athletes and have better reflexes but don't try telling me that you can aim for a top or bottom corner with one of those kicks. It's not like a free-kick specialist who can judge the speed,whip and flight of the ball. Sinclairs overhead was better than shreks but they are all pure luck. They just look great when the 1 in 20 actually go in.BoyBlue_1985 said:anymore than 2sheiks said:It's called making amends. The rags get twatted 6-1 at their own ground but then they narrowly beat us in the fa cup so that's cancels that out. They get humiliated by barca in the cl but then beat them in a meaningless friendly so that cancels that. They lose again to us having thrown away an 8 point lead and lose the top spot in the process but shreks shinned bicycle kick is the best goal ever since cavemen first started kicking a pigs bladder. So it's all good really.
A bicycle kick always has and always will be pure luck. All you're hoping for is to connect with the ball and HOPE it goes towards the goal.
For your man kicking about the street this may well be true but for a professional football player i disagree. They have better reflexes, anticipation, timing and athleticism to achieve this and mean it. Silva doesn't hope he will control the ball and beat 4 defenders with a through ball by luck he can see it before anyone else just like Shrek could see he could connect with that ball when it looped up in the air

Its a twat it was scored against us but fuck me from the keeper to the back of our net in under 9 seconds without the ball touching the ground. That for me is the best premier league goal ever. In fact if that would of been the winning goal in the CL final or something like that it would be hailed as probably one of the best goals of all time.

Or if it had been scored by Rooney, Aguero or anyone other than Crouch. He gets a raw deal him. Technically he's brilliant, it's just he looks fuck all like a footballer so people see the funny side of him rather than how good he actually can be.Challenger1978 said:[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zo2VMUaN1zM&feature=related[/youtube]

But then you might as well say any long range shot is just luck

Another thing people always get wrong about him to is thinking because he's such a tall bloke he's good with his head. Which is completely untrue he's great with the ball when its played to his feet not when its in the air as the guy can't bloody jump. Honestly I've seen him play loads of times and defenders that are 6 or 7 inches smaller than him get higher up in the air at corners.
If we get rid of Dzeko in the summer I'd have Crouch in the team no problem. Not as a regular starter but as a 3rd or 4th choice forward that we can bring on to change things up. Or maybe give him a run in the domestic cups so we can rest our normal forward line for the league or CL next season.

I said the same thing this time last year, i'd have had him in a shot. Crouch, for a tall man with long legs, is excellent on the floor, and some of his trick shots are the stuff the best players would be proud of. It's that much more difficult to pull off as a tall guy too, especially over head kicks etc, but Crouch does it superbly.Challenger1978 said:Pigeonho said:Or if it had been scored by Rooney, Aguero or anyone other than Crouch.

I remember Ian Ormondroyd from the 80's saying that if he tried something and it went a bit shit, the villa fans would slate him, whereas if Tony Daley tried the same thing and it also went a bit shit, no abuse would go his way. He put that down to the fact he was awkward looking an didn't look like a footballer. Same for Crouch really, except he's better than most 'average' height footballers full stop.

Remember a journalist saying that this goal was just fluke and he didn't mean it at all. Trying to find the quote, weren't too long ago.

I know the defender Nikos Dabizas has always claimed it was a fluke
