Rock The Boat 1,325 Posted December 14, 2020 Forty-eight scored in the penalty area. The other two on the penalty area line as he's running in. None from outside the box. An interesting statistic. (not a complaint BTW) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,509 Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) So hard to choose a favourite although I do like the goal at Bolton where he controls the dropping ball and then lobs the keeper. Edited December 14, 2020 by nutty nigel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He gets in the box and has a sight at goal its hitting the back of the net 9 times out of 10. He's not an Alex Tetty style striker 😉 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,531 Posted December 14, 2020 Can't find a list of our top goalscorers ever, but it won't be long surely before he starts being near the top of that list. Top is Gavin, with 122 (I think) but the rest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 6,676 Posted December 14, 2020 If you want an alternate Pukki video how about this blast from the past? 3:24 is honestly just unreal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gavin scored 132 by the way, Terry Allcock is second with 127, Iwan Roberts third with 96, Robert Fleck fourth with 84.

BroadstairsR 2,138 Posted December 14, 2020 (edited) Irrelevant I suppose, but does he lose a handful of hair every time he scores a goal, or is his newly and totally shaven head deliberate? He looks a completely different person, even from his early City days. Ironically it was the Finns who discovered that Finasteride, a medication for suppressing prostate enlargement, also reversed male pattern baldness. Perhaps Teemu should be donated a course by the Finnish FA. Edited December 14, 2020 by BroadstairsR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Words still fail me to adequately express my thoughts after that decision that day. The utter uselessness and lack of common sense in deciding how to use var with the result that the beautiful game is reduced to savage and soul destroying computerised netherworld where natural justice ceases to exist is about the best I can do.....but even that doesn't feel enough. The misuse of Var simply adds another level of stupidity added to the already almost completey stupid nature of how our game is run by the officials. Pukki didn't score many after this goal was disallowed, it almost seemed like he lost a bit of belief after that. Thankfully that looks to have returned as his 9 goals in 16 games shows. Great player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 1,373 Posted December 15, 2020 That offside call was one of several little things during December that I believe snowballed and basically killed the belief in the squad. We played well that month all in all but had points snatched off of us at almost every turn, and I just don't think we ever recovered. That and not having any fit natural centre backs for most of the year. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless you like a good old tv analysis... Couldn't agree more. At that point I already found it weird celebrating a goal because it felt like VAR would do everything in its power to find a reason not to give it. After that game it stopped feeling like it and became fact. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lockdown then destroyed any momentum we were starting to gain at home. 12 hours ago, BroadstairsR said: Irrelevant I suppose, but does he lose a handful of hair every time he scores a goal, or is his newly and totally shaven head deliberate?

Unless you like a good old tv analysis... Spot on. My mates will tell you that I am the most cautious celebrator of goals - I check with the ref and the Lino for infringingment and only then will I allow myself to leap around . Against Spurs however there was no doubt . It was a brilliant goal. At the time I hadn’t realised the extent of the pass , but the control and finish was extraordinary. We were two up , and coasting , and I had hugged everyone in the Upper Barclay . And then it happened . And as Nutty says it left an indelible feeling of gloom and uncertainty for the rest of the season. oh and by the way , before I need to go and lay down , has anyone ever seen a definitive photo of the ball leaving Mario’s foot and Teemu’s position as the ball is kicked ? Nope didn’t think so. There wasn’t one. It was a scandalous decision. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
