Dwight Gayle (now playing for Hibernian)


Recommended Posts

Not sure how he could possibly react that quickly to where the ball was going to be unless it was intentional.

 

I think he meant to pull it with his left foot behind him (to his left as he was facing away from the goal) swivel and shoot. Personally think that he "miscontrolled it" but he was planning on moving that way anyway and readjusted as needed.

 

Get away man, go watch it again in slow motion. You can see by the way he flicks his foot and spins his body he was in complete control Of The whole move. Outrageous goal.

Totally agree with this, have never been convinced he meant to do what he did.

I've watched loads of times over the years. Never looks good to me. Looks clumsy somehow. Stand by what I said above like. Think he was trying to flick it behind him to his left.

Sometimes I disagree with but respect your opinion...not on this occasion. I was sat right behind the gallowgate goal, middle tier, when he scored that goal and live, I thought similar to you, shouted it loud and long in pubs after....till I watched it on the box and thought"fuck, he knew exactly what he was doing and it was brilliant"

 

Still remember him being subbed at half time though because Bramble had him all ends in a later game mind.
