A lot of good and great goals there but for me the Bergkamp goal v the geordies is sooooo under-rated by all and sundry and is without doubt the best goal I have ever seen :barscarf: If that goal was scored by cuntona or shearer (as if :coffeespit: ) then the media would be wanking themselves silly everytime they think about it even now but because it was scored by a reserved genius who didnt lead a high profile publicity seeking life then it is often overlooked :roll: :x

The one in Davey's signature. RVP in an Emirates Cup game in 2007, I think it was against PSV or Ajax. I still having seen it about 50 times am not fully clear what he actually does with the ball but whatever it is it's amazing. :barscarf: :barscarf:

Love that goal, hit it at like 1/16th of the ball so it would screw backwards the wanky sky team tried to say i was a fluke but he was already turning as he toed it, they don't understand that this is what allowed him to get it back he knew where it was going and defender did not, if it was a fluke he would be reacting and maybe lose the foot race with the defender!

I can't believe I am going to say this but David Bentley's one and only goal for us wasn't bad. :oops:

Joseph Hulme's second goal at anfield in 1934 when we won 3-2. Never gets any recognition by the fans :roll:

That Ashley Cole goal is fantastic. Sometimes I forget how good that team actually was.

Vermaelen's strike against Blackburn was a f*cking beaut.. For a central defender it was immense :barscarf:

The quality isn't great but Martin Tyler's commentary just sums up what a comeback that was and what a goal it was :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Kanu versus Deportivo in the UEFA Cup at Highbury.

From memory did he not skin the keeper without touching the ball ?
