Robert scored a beauty away to Everton too in the game when Bernard was chopped down by Gravesen. In fact I only remember him scoring 2 tap-ins, home to West Ham on the last game of the season and away to Arsenal in 2003/04.

I’m still adamant that the Gravesen tackle was when it all “changed” at NUFC. We were bossing the game at the time, they immediately scored and won, we were shite for the rest of the season, then Partizan came to town...

Too many to mention. But I like Shearer’s goal v Spurs in the 7-1 game. Flick over a defender, half volley in the top corner. And his goal v Villa, Schmeichel in goal. Robert 3-1 v Arsenal. Solano 4-3 v Leeds.

Yep - it was 1-1 too - they went up and got a pen seconds later. If we'd won that we were right in a shout for the League - I'm sure it was Man Utd at home the following weekend when we got humped 6-2?!

Ben Arfa vs Blackburn for me, happened right in front of me and i couldn't believe it, remember most people who saw it in SJP came back and were writing here about it to those who didn't and it was only that same night when the highlights were on that everyone got to see it.

The one I always jump to without a great deal of thought is Shearer's 30 yard piledriver against Chelsea in 03/04. Absolutely loved that goal. Best one I've seen live in terms of quality was Ben Arfa against Blackburn. The most I've ever lost it (whilst at the ground) was Martins and Lovenkrands against Boro in 08/09. In terms of the Rafa years, it's tough, but maybe Perez's winner against Everton.

Was Hamann really good? I was young and didn't see many games around that time but I have it in my head that he was a great player for that one season.

 

He was superb the season he was here! Scored a pearler at home to Arsenal too! I had forgot about the Juve goal in the friendly - absolute screamer!

Genuinely don’t think I have favourite as such as there’s been so many and the context and crowd reaction after I can’t  always remember. Goals with the crowd going mental after adds so much to any of them regardless of how it’s gone in.

Yeah, was more attacking with us than he ended up being at Liverpool too.

Carl Cort's finish at home to Everton in the 6-2 was underrated.

 

Yeah it was truly delicious, boy was outstanding at the end of the 00/01 season. Sad at how his career turned out.
