Did you guys see that f**king goal today. I literally had tears coming out of my eyes.

One of my friends said it was as good as THE Maradona goal. I can't wait to watch it.

who were they playing?

He's not exagerating. Well, it wasn't at the world cup, but still. I'd go as far as saying one of the top 5 goals I've ever seen.

WOWW!!!!!!!! WOWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!! WOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

they were playing getafe.

that is SOME goal! I think we should sign him, now! Also, can we get some of their "fans" to come to our games...quite nice eye candy!

Is he serious? Great goal, great everything... but thats some f**king selfish sh*te.

I've seen henry do the same thing 4 times before...some skill though!

they were playing getafe.

Is that a real team? Sounds like a well-known Glaswegian phrase to me

Is he serious? Great goal, great everything... but thats some f**king selfish sh*te.

you're selfish only if you don't score.

This is shellfish...

point taken

He was lucky that Del Horno wasnt on the pitch - he would have stopped Messi - no problem

What a GREAT GOAL.

My dream is for us to sign Messi. That ain't gonna happen I guess. That goal has probably put his value up by another ?10m.

Anyway, as other's on here point out - he isn't a patch on Robben

Was exactly going to say the same thing...on a slightly diferent tone:

Nothing there that Robben can't do.

good goal but poor defending...just like england with maradona, terrible defending! take the tosser out, don't just let him run with it

I don't get it- why is he a "tosser"?

Perhaps for his theatrics at the Bridge when he rolled around comically on the floor as if he had just been shot in a crap film whilst looking appealingly at the ref after being caught by Del Horno who was subsequently sent off when he wasn't even injured ?

paulo gets a gold star

Of course none of our players have ever done such a thing

This is, its ture, we have seen robben score simmeler goals (not sure if quite as good) but that was all in the first season, im not some one that believes he is a one trick poney who has been figured out, hell i still believe he can be everything ronnaldo has been this seaon.

For me his problem is more mental than anything else, he seemes to lack the mental streghnth that ronnaldo, cole and even SWP (must be said) posses and goes missing when things arnt going his way, the first two mentioned will drop deaper for the ball, want it more to sort things out and probably up there work rate. robben goes missing.

Ive not seen enough of messi to comment on how he reacts when things arnt going his way but on pure ability he's cirtainly right up there, wouldnt say no

I'm sorry but that is just a brilliant goal.

It's a great goal. But this one is better. So much better. And this guy we could actually sign.

Absolutely stunning goal , but Maradonna's was special because for a start , i saw it happen live , it was the first time id seen a goal that good and he scored another one almost similar again in the semi finals .

Like this one too , still top of my hit parade .
