When someone else said benteke i automatically assumed it was for liverpool vs utd, great goal that one No mention of gary cahill yet either...

Mark Albrighton Posted April 4, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted April 4, 2018 24 minutes ago, NurembergVillan said: Agreed. The conversation started with "one of the best of all time" which I think you can justify. It's got to be in the conversation. Sinclair's is absolutely top drawer too. To be honest, I wouldn’t have it in the conversation as the best goal ever. Ronaldo as the best player ever? Yep, he’s absolutely in the conversation. That goal being Ronaldo’s best ever? Yep, that’s fine too. I just don’t think we’ll be talking about this goal in years to come. We’re debating it now, whether it’s the greatest goal because that’s how it works these days. But if someone else had scored it (other than Messi), it wouldn’t get anywhere near the attention and would be forgotten about much quicker. It just fuels the Messi-Ronaldo debate (not that it needs refuelling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Benteke's for Liverpool vs United was better imo. Absolutely rifled it into the top corner, and there was no question over whether he meant it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) Watching bentekes again, it's not even in the corner or that far away from de gea but look at de geas reaction, he's way behind it, so much power generated by him, hardly any pace on the dropping ball Edited April 4, 2018 by villa4europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobzy Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 4 hours ago, Genie said: This is it. Like @bobzy proved, when big names do it then it’s already more special than another player. Sinclair’s was called “hit and hope” but Ronaldo’s was a “deliberately placed effort”... I cited Ibrahimovic in the same example - is he not a “big name” anymore? Sinclair’s is obviously hit and hope. He’s made a great connection and the ball has gone in, but he hasn’t placed his effort to beat the keeper. He’s hit it, very well, and it’s gone in. Nothing to do with being a big name here - that’s the media making the fuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Albrighton Posted April 4, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted April 4, 2018 (edited) Aren’t all bicycle kicks “hit and hope” to an extent? Ronaldo’s comment after the goal - Quote It just came to me to give it a go, you always have to try it. I tried it today and it came off". http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/43636379 He obviously meant it. No one is debating that. It’s just not the best bicycle kick ever, let alone the best goal.

You can pick a side, but it's the delivery and your body shape that determines where it goes, at best. Good connection helps. But if he had the same delivery 10 times, I he couldn't put it where he did 10 times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet he could probably do it if he were arsed 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
