One of the best

You can hate the premier league, but don’t kid yourself. It’s top quality.

The point is if someone posted a fantastic volley video then you are such a slave to the Premier league you would question it

There is video after video of fantastic goals from the championship down who is to say the great volley from today is one of the greatest goals ever and better than anything ever seen in the lower leagues , what an absurd view

Is your name Mr Scudamore ?

You are on a bonus

Good grief.

I'm suggesting that a remarkable bit of skill, as shown by Gaunacho today, is a bit of a rarity, in terms of individual brilliance. You've tried to put down the goal as it doesn't suit your agenda of PL hater but MOTD watcher.

There are brilliant team goals. There are brilliant individual goals. I'm not suggesting one is better than the other, but I am suggesting that you don't get many moments of individual skill, like that bicycle kick today, in the lower divisions.

Absolutely. I don't particularly follow the PL but, with my boy being ill, we had a football afternoon with quilts in front of the TV. It was one of the top goals in the history of the top division. Bale scored a similar goal in a Champions' League final and it's ranked as one of the best of all time.

Of course , it's a great goal

I am saying goals like this happen in football and are not exclusive to the Premier league

It's daft to think otherwise

Again these great goals compilations of 2023 are made for the armchair premier league fan ....its great to get the money in and keep up the charade

There are staggering goals on the championship , league 1 and league 2 round up just this year

Last year and for the 20 years before that

I'm not disagreeing with you, but let's be honest here, we see more spectacular goals in the PL and CHampions League on average than anywhere else.

On a par with Gaunacho's? Nah. He was falling over and it was a hopeful poke over the shoulder into the net.

Re: Garnacho volley

I heard about the goal before I saw it.
So my expectations were raised.
I saw it and was astonished at how great of a goal it was.

Still think that Trevor Sinclair’s is the best I’ve seen.
Maybe bettered by Bale for the importance of it (I wish that he didn’t score from that shot that Karius fumbled).

That was in 1970 , 53 years ago

Long before your beloved Premier league came along

Brazil were good at football? Who knew? Who was the bloke with the assist? He looks a tidy little player.

I think you've mentioned the two that might beat yesterday's goal there.

If, say, one of our players did the same yesterday, the media would barely mention it, then forget it ever happened.

Same as Hudson's long-range goal years ago, but all the media remembers is Beckham's, which wasn't as good.

Hudson's was further out, but Beckham's was far more controlled. Hudson's was a hoof, could have gone anywhere

Re: Garnacho volley

For me nothing will ever top Dennis Tuearts overhead kick for Man City against Newcastle in the League Cup Final back in the 70's.

Everyone, of an age, went out to a patch of grass and tried to emulate that beauty.

A&E in the70's!

You only went there if you were missing a limb.
Even then it was a sticking plaster and a glass of Lucozade ( with krinkly orange paper) and told to run it off.

Ankle ligament damage was just a sprained ankle back then. "Run it off, you should be okay for next Saturday". :hehe:

I tried to run off torn ligaments and a fractured kneecap, wasn’t a good idea, four months in full leg plaster of Paris and trouble to this day 50 years later:cry::cry:

Re: Garnacho volley

The volley was nothing special. For me the standout performance was how Rashford managed to balance a hedgehog on his head for 90+ minues..
