Worldies against City

[Platini Pollock]

Reading on the Southampton thread about Dani Osvaldo and his worldie against us and then further comments such as - "I wonder how many players greatest goals came against City. Osvaldo, Crouch, Barkley, Villa, Macken............ we seem to get more than our fair share of worldies scored against us."......

The one I remember was from bloody David Batty.....he couldn't score from 5 years normally.....cue City rocking upto to Ewood on Boxing Day and he decides to hit the only 30 yard shot of his entire career on target....

Any others ?

I remember Zoltan Gera scored a beauty against us in a cup tie at home, 2009 I think?

Obviously there's Wooney's shinner
Palacios (or maybe it was Valencia) against us for Wigan

One for the older generation..............

Ronnie Boyce for West Ham at Maine Road when he volleyed back Big Joe`s kick-out straight back.

Sammy Lee free kick from 40 odd yards

Crouchy for Stoke, right?

Didn't Bob Taylor score a worldy against us which is why we bought him?

Could be wrong

Jon Macken at Preston. Batty scored against us twice when he was at Leeds, he couldn't hit a barn door normally. Jimmy Nicholl in around 1977 at MR.

few in my mind;

Osman, top corner left foot when Everton did us 2-0 at goodison
I think it was Dorrans from west brom at our place, great build up and a top finish
Henry when the gooners batterd us, 5-1 possibly. long ball over the top, one touch down and one touch finish.
bale against us in the 3-2 was a cracking finish.
