As much as I hate West Ham and the fact that he's a bit of a mentalist, for me Di Canio's was one of the best. A unique goal which hasn't been repeated. Same goes for Bergkamp v Newcastle. Sublime goal.

But, Giggs' was a good goal in a big match, which is why it gets all of the accolades.

Surely Frank scored a better one at some point this season.

oxf*rd hell. Outside the box, over 'keeper, under bar. :shock:

Shits all over Giggs' power run through a defence trying to get out the way. And that's a pretty darn good goal.

The best, in my view.

There is a similar Marco van Basten one when he was at Ajax, but I've not seen it recently enough to compare the two.

A Yeboah montage. Hadn't seen the third one. Sublime.

Love the Yeboah goal, and I too remember a Van Basten goal from before he was famous that was amazing.

Hoddle against Man U has always been a favourite:

I think it was the same season as Fashanu's goal, so didn't win many awards. It has everything: a team goal, a volley, hitting the back stanchion and bouncing out; against Man U; great shirt without tucking it in; etc.

In terms of some of the moments of individual brilliance/skill (and I'm not able to find the videos of these whilst at work), but some of favourites from recent seasons in no particular order:
Shearer v Everton volley from the corner of the box
Bergkamp v Newcastle
Bergkamp v Argentina
Crouch's overhead volley for Stoke (I forget who against)
Glen Little v Plymouth
Di Canio v Everton (I think)

Still got a lot of love for that Yeboah goal as well. Going further back that van Baston volleyed goal for Ajax from the ridiculously tight angle.

Jimmy Quinn's keepy uppies and back to goal audacious volley v Wolves at EP would make my shortlist

Personal favourite is Mickey Walsh, Blackpool v Sunderland 1975 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnKBwYHAbE4

Surprised nobody has mentioned George Weah's amazing solo goal for AC Milan against Verona in 96 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiK-vo68YVM

Anyone mentioned Robin Friday's 20/30/40/50/60/70/80 yard overhead belter* against Tranmere in 1975?

* depending on who you speak to
