Best goal of the Pep era

[Postman Pep]

Few contenders in this ... number 7 has to be up there

 

[bluesteel]

I love 1-1 Madrid away, de Bruyne.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

Nothing can top the feeling of Gundogan’s 12 second goal.

But head says it’s the sane goal against Arsenal. It’s definitive Pep.

Marmoush vs Bournemouth is a good shout. Key goal as we were chasing Champions league.

I also loved Nunes vs. Villa last season -- the way Doku skinned Disasi and flipped a picture perfect ball across the box with outside of right boot. And Pep's reaction was epic

Fernandinho v Stoke was a belter

Always remember a screamer from Kev down at Leicester.
Leicester had a corner, cleared or should I say passed away from David Silva (I think).
3 touches later Kev feints from his right foot to smash a thunderbastard with his left into the top corner.
Schmeichel no chance

 

[Blue Potato]

Loved the KDB opener in the 4-1 vs Arsenal in the treble season

I was on a plane over the Atlantic watching the game when that went in. I jumped up from my seat and screamed. The woman next to me who was fast asleep nearly had a heart attack. Had to apologise.

That one at home v rags with a silly amount of passes just for how Pepesque it was

November 2018. Gundo netted at the end of a 51(53) consecutive pass move. The Fourmidables season.

Honorable mention for Gündoğan's goals at Goodison Park in May 2023, and Stones at home to Leicester around the same time.

Sorry.
That made me laugh. The poor woman :-)

Oh yes Gundos was a back flip. Superb. Yet surprisingly (!) ignored by the msm. A rag scored a similar goal following season iirc and well, it was wall to wall best goal ever.

The one that always stands out to me is the Kev goal away at Madrid in the treble season

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Bernardo volley v villa. Mahrez hemmed in near his own box. Escapes and we go the length with Bernie delivering exceptional tekkers on the volley

 

[NordStrike]

Kevin De Bruyne against Stoke

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

The one that always stands out to me is the Kev goal away at Madrid in the treble season

Several great shouts but I also loved the one away to Leicester (think it was Raheem) when the pass from KDB had 2 defenders on their backsides trying to stop it.
But the thing that is mind boggling is whether it's true that over Peps tenure we scored 2.4 goals a game!!!That's insane. It means that if we score 0 in one game then the average suggests we score 4 or 5 in the next!!

 

[Taylor]

Either Vinnie at home to Leicester or KDB away at Madrid for me

 

[Heartofoakes64]

Bernardo volley v villa. Mahrez hemmed in near his own box. Escapes and we go the length with Bernie delivering exceptional tekkers on the volley

That one was superb excellent football leading to the goal which was amazing

 

[Clembo]

Always loved sterling's goal against stoke in the 7 -2 game, was a great example of how opposition teams could feel safe one moment with the ball in our half to suddenly be picking the ball out of their own nets.

It was also during this time where opposition teams used to try and press eddy on the ball.

Beautiful football: Raheem Sterling goal vs Stoke

Manchester City's second goal against Stoke was a thing of beauty.

KDB at Chelsea in the 1-0 win there in 2017 was a superb goal and signaled our intent.

That was the moment I thought we could win the title. All doubts gone.
