fredbob Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Technically brilliant, aesthetically not. So it wasn't great to watch? It wasnt aesthetically brilliant, no. Not a thing of beauty? Nope not in my opinion. "brilliant" being the operative word here, mind. i wouldnt describe Nayims goal as a thing of beauty, nor Pedro Mendez strike against Man U as a thing of beauty, i wouldnt even describe Ronaldihno gaols against england as a thing of beauty, I'd put bentleys goal in with those. Lampards goal agaisnt Hull was much better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allmo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Almunia should have saved it imo. It was a brilliant goal, but because it basically went in due to a keeper error, it makes it a bit less special. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nufc_kev Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Very good goal, but not in the same class as Shearer's vs Everton and Villa, Rooney vs us or Cantana vs the scum.

Lampards goal agaisnt Hull was much better. Do you play football regularly? Not a trick question, just interested to know, as I'd argue - from my experience of playing the game - that what Bentley did was more difficult than what Lampard did. The ball was rolling towards Lampard (always easier to make a good connection that way) and was begging for him to attempt what he did. I also thought the keeper might have had a better stab at getting to it. Fair play to Lampard though, it was still a great goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take Laurent Roberts wierd flick agaisnt Fulham (?) technically through the roof, aesthetically not - ergo not the best goal. Now take Catonas chip agaisnt Scum (?) again, techincally no way near as difficult as what Robert did, but id argue was a better goal. You see my point?

Mr. Snrub Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 It was a great goal, no doubt about it. I'd be more concerned about this embarrassing over-reaction to getting a fucking draw. 4-4 shirts printed, ffs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Martins' shot that hit the bar at Anfield last season would have been better as it was on the turn and the left the keeper with no chance of saving it. Saying that it was a good idea and fair play to Bentley for trying it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mowen Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Fantastic effort, but would have been saved over 90% of the time in the Premiership I'd wager, so a bit lucky in that respect. A bit like Alonso's goal against us a couple of years ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
