Match of the Day - Goal of the Month, December 2006

How do you pick from that lot?

I would embed it, but not sure how to embed it as HD with the fmt=18 bit working.

A few goals in there that we in particular should appreciate, but the whole thing is brilliant - I'd argue better than the recent 'Goal of the season 2009' on the last MotD.

^ ?

Some spectacular goals there. As I recall I think it was Scholes that won that month and I think he went on to win goal of the season with that one as well. :angry:

I remember it well..

I think I phoned in chose, Essien, Drogba and Lamps of course

I think Drogba's took the biscuit there. Matthew Taylor's was pretty amazing as well.

how Van Persie's goal is included in that line up, beggars belief

Taylor, Essien, Drogba and Scholes are all incredible goals. Mine would naturally be Essien, but Taylor's was just awesome.

Cassiya - I'm guessing it got in just to get the number up to 10, rather than having 9. Have you ever seen the "Top 9 charts?" That was probably just the best of the rest.

And has anyone noticed, that every time Chelsea score an amazing goal, there's always another goal in that month that's apparently better according to MOTD? e.g. Anelka. Ridiculous.

That month for example, we had 3 in there, all amazing goals, and none got it.

scholes winning that month was a joke and just exposed the utd love in...good goal yes, but certainly not better than essien's or drogba's...and just to show i'm not biased either, matty taylor's goal would have won it if his name was Ronaldo or Rooney

I would embed it, but not sure how to embed it as HD with the fmt=18 bit working.

Good try, but nope unfortunately - heh

It's YouTube's fault to be honest, I really can't understand why the hell they'd make the videos low quality by default!

I agree that Essien's goal was better than Scholes' by the way, but Scholes' wasn't bad at all... a worthy winner imo
