Young Danny Rose's goal the other night got me to thinking about some of the amazing goals we have seen at WHL. Apologies if this has been done before but anyway the more i thought about it the harder it was to choose because there have been some great goals at the Lane that i haven't even been able to include. I emphasised the word "seen" but it doesn't matter if you watched it on TV, as long as it was in your lifetime and you saw it live.
We have had some amazing players and some obscure ones. I remember Stephan Dalmat scoring a cracker at WHL (remember him). Freddie Kanoute's excellent goal against Everton (03/04); Keanes mazy goal against Blackburn; Andy Reid's blockbuster v Villa (04/05) and what about Gazza's free kick brace against Shilton in the Derby goal (90/91) or Ziege's free kick against Arsenal (02/03)? I also remember Nico Claesen scoring a fantastic goal in 86/87 but can't recall the opposition now.
Surprisingly all of Berbatov's great goals were scored away from home (West Ham, Charlton, Boro, Besiktas). And when you think that i have not even mentioned great players like Archibald, Crooks, Sheringham, Defoe, Lineker, Waddle or Clive Allen then you can see how spoilt we have been over the years with great attacking players. Funny then that two of my goals come from a full back!
Anyway here's my top 10 - in no particular order;
Rose v Arsenal (09/10)
Ekotto v Liverpool (09/10)
Anderton v Leeds (98/99)
Ginola v Leeds (same game) (98/99)
Hoddle v Man U (79/80)
Hoddle v Nottm Forest (79/80)
Carr v Sunderland (99/00)
Carr v Man Utd (99/00)
Klinsmann v Sheff W (94/95)
Roberts v Anderlecht (for its sheer importance) (83/84)
