Tired 102 Posted March 6, 2019 So having seen Grealish's superb volley on Saturday and Mason Bennett's fantastic goal tonight, it got me thinking: we've been treated to so many awesome team goals so far this season, but what is the best screamer we've scored? The only out-of-nothing wonderstrikes this season I can think of off the top of my head are Tettey's backpedalling volley against Preston and McLean's second goal against Bristol the other week. But there's been so many goals scored this season that I'm probably forgetting something obvious! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,188 Posted March 6, 2019 Perhaps that’s an indicator of our evolution? Maddison regularly scored bangers but we struggled for goals overall despite creating great on-field positions. This time around we’re less reliant on one players ability to conjure a hare from a bonnet. We stick to our methods, we trust in our ability and fall back on our fitness. We have goals all over the park and I’d take half a dozen Pukki Pokeys than one Howson Howitzer any day of the week. Preferably Saturdays. Unless Sky have intervened. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CanaryChris 146 Posted March 6, 2019 Leitner vs 1p5wich. Very similar to McLean's, but better because it was against 1p5wich. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thirsty Lizard 3,085 Posted March 6, 2019 Stiepermann away at Bristol City and Leitner at home to Millwall were decent strikes, but as the OP says we haven't really scored many screamers this season. Delia out!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,085 Posted March 6, 2019 Oh and Vrancic has scored a couple of decent efforts from 20 yards or so - home to Rotherham and Birmingham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Our little crew of friends often like to call it a 'pissballet' as that's what it ended up getting auto corrected to when somebody tried to write it in our What's App group! I'd like to see drunk ballet now I think about it... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
