David Edgar Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Loved his celebration. Turned and ran back into position and did a few high fives along the way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Mistake aside (and you can lay blame to about 4 players there) he looked very good. I know it's 'just Bromley' but it's a cup tie. Game of their season and played well. Fast, physical and no pressure. I just watched CL players buckle under the pressure at Tamworth and escape a humiliating defeat. We and him were much better than that and it's all you can ask for. He coped well and physically looks a lot stronger. You'd think time is calling on Longstaff now, with miley being the preferred sub and rotation by the end of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Can't stop watching that strike. If that's in a PL game with a bit more at stake than just being an early course-correcting equaliser, it's our goal of the season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 It's on par with Isak (Liverpool) and Ben Arfa (Everton), only beaten by Martins (Spurs) imo, for strikes on the past 20 year that I can remember. Such a shame it was 'wasted' against Bromley, no keeper in the worpd saves it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean it was a good hit but at a medium height and not hit with the venom of the Robert thunderblasters (I know that's more than 20 years ago). St Maximin and Schar have had better hits in recent history. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Maximin and Schar have had better hits in recent history. Robert's were usually further out but hit with an arced trajectory, I may be forgetting a proper stinger from him though. I just love strikes where the ball seens to barely move in the air and arrows past the keeper, Isak's is probably the best example as you can see the ball barely turning on it's axis once it was hit.

Bellars Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Love how after the ball hit the net, it kept violently spinning on the ground after. can’t imagine how good it must feel to leather one like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it might have just been positive PR for him, but I remember someone saying Tonali had the hardest shot in the squad. After Sunday's evidence, I respectfully disagree.

Lush Vlad Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I agree with Jonny. Osula’s goal was better. Still a belter, of course. On the season, Barnes at Wolves and Isak against Liverpool beat it. So without trying too hard to remember any others. It’s top 5, for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
