I was thinking about this today and I think it will make an interesting thread.Whats your Favorite LFC goal...? I am going to go for the one from John Barnes against the Bitters,remember the one he was out on the left wing right on the touch line and he wiped it straight into the net.IIRC it was the 4:4 draw in the 1991 FA Cup,what a match what a goal.I don't know what it is about that goal but it always brings back good memory's,Barnes was some player in his prime.
Remember watching that one on VCr alright I was only a nipper, one of earliest Pool memories, Digger what a ledge on the field(scored best Eng goal ever vs Brazil)...........not to mention his rapping skills! For me my favourite was a youthful Stevie G scoring a screamer in Annie Road round End vs Man UshiTeD in 00/01 season. What a hit, like an arrow hitting the target!!It was in from the second it left his foot!! To make it more special it was my only ever pool vs man u game and I was sitting in lower Annie Road end and had a class view of the goal...get in
Don't like to think about the 4-4 draw as Kenny left the next day. Took us over 10years to recover from that. Few spring to mind. So top 5 in reverse order. Fowler turning stan in the Cup semi and letting fly into the top corner. Owen against Arsenal in Cardiff to win the FA cup Gerrard from 35yards same venue in injury time Kenny at the bridge to capture the league in his first year as player/manager double to follow the next week But number 1 and drum roll please Gerrard v Olympiacos with 5mins to go. Still makes the hair on the back of my neck go up when I watch it. Get IN
Ligger, your top 5 rules! I am fond of crouches 1 st goal (plus minus the help of Pollit) V Wigan. Not a great goal, but every one wanted him to score. He has gone on to prove himself, since that, but that, coupled with his second later in the first half went a long way. How about Barnes free kick against the Arse? or Aldos strike in the cup final after 4 minutes, a highly charged emotional occasion, for obvious reasons, against our neighbours. Im just not decisive.
Thanks Megager. Tough decisions. Had quite a few to choose from, should probably give Razor an honourable mention for the equaliser in the 3-3 v man utd in the last nite game infront of the old standing Kop. The abuse I was getting in the pub that nite when 3-0 down was dire. He made it a great nite.
i always remember stan collymores on his debut against sheff wed,good goal that.all time favourite is stevie g against olympicos
Tommy Smith old Euopean Cup final. David Fairclough European Cup was it semi or quarter fianl ? v St. Etienne - lying in bed listening on the radio under the covers - folks thought I was asleep - I kinda blew my cover after the goal went in Steve Heighway v the Arse 1971 cup final - my first day as a Red!
Top 5 in any order. -Ronnie whelan 1992 FA Cup semi v Portsmouth. Still in the days when we had a given right to win trophies each season and this seemed to be slipping away..until barnesie hit the cross bar with a cracking free kick , and good ol Ronnie knocked it in. Cue wild delerium and tears (in a weird kinda rage) while my sis and her friend looked in the sitting room window to ensure all was ok in the world. - Gerrard v Olympiakos, the first turn in a journey which is still continuing - Owens winner v Arsenal in the FA cup final... A big f*ck you to the gooner who i shared a flat with at the time. -Xabi's equaliser v Milan..... I actually felt physically sick such were the emoutions bouncing around at that stage. - Fowlers winner in the second newcastle 4-3, hugging of TV and relief of victory after we thought we had lost what we had already won. Ah Goooood times.
Gerrard against Olympiacos was class but so was the equaliser in the last minute against West Ham in the cup final last year.
My top 6 in no particular order... Razor Ruddocks goal in the 3-3 cracker against the Mancs Gerrard's long range strike against the same opposition in Cardiff in 2002 Owens winner in Cardiff against Arsenal Xabi's equaliser against Milan Collymore's winner against Newcastle Stevie G against Olympiakos Good times
Fowler versus the mancs when he shouldered Gary scum to the ground and put it past red nose..... bloody marvelous!!
Ya, love that one too but the added neville shoulder just sneakes it In heathrow at the moment and the Cardiff city team are milling around, was hoping to catch a glimpse of GOD but not sure if that deal is happening
Some super goals on this thread, making me smile,, agree with Cmulls, you can beat late winners, actually remember Smicer's Volley in the last minute Versus CSKA London a few years ago, brilliant
Super Goal, always makes me smile, Gerrards screamer against Oylmpiakos, I remember Whelan scorin 1 against the mancs inmilk cup final in early eighties Also remember this Robbie Gem in europe!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPr-TvRyJZc CLASS!!
