Alan_R Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 that goal is completely over rated. Its not even the best bicycle kick ive seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavsy Van Gaverson Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Messi will win but I'm not sure who'll be second and third. Xavi helped Barca win La Liga so he'll probable edge. Ronaldo did score over 50 goals but didn't win either of the big two competitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milky_26 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 that goal is completely over rated. Its not even the best bicycle kick ive seen goodwillie scored one a few weeks (i think it was a few weeks) after for dundee united which was IMO better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Tucker Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 goodwillie scored one a few weeks (i think it was a few weeks) after for dundee united which was IMO better He did, but it wasn't better. Rooney's goal is unbelievably good. Maybe not the best ever, but probably the best of the year. Hence the nomination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan_R Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I hate Rooney as much as the next man but that goal was ridiculous Agreed Its abrilliant goal but hes in the box and not going to reach it any other way so throws himself at it. I seem to remember a Berbatov one from a season or so back that I remember being better, where he controled it first. More technique involved. And then there is the king of bicycle kicks Batistuta. Remember him scoring one from about 20 odd yards, unbelievable power. This is from memory so I hope no one digs them up showing them to be total shite haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Draper Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Goal of the year nominees can be seen here: http://www.fifa.com/ballondor/puskasaward/index.html Messi, Neymar and Rooney. All crackers, but it's Neymar's effort for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Spackler Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Goal of the year nominees can be seen here: http://www.fifa.com/...ward/index.html Messi, Neymar and Rooney. All crackers, but it's Neymar's effort for me. They are all brilliant but different. Rooney's is the best strike, Neymar's is the best individually and Messi's the most audacious. You could give it to any one of them. Player of the year is Messi by a good country mile though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could give it to any one of them. Player of the year is Messi by a good country mile though. Without seeing the list I'm guessing it was the one vs Arsenal, where he flicks it up vertically (almost impossibly so) over the keeper and volleys it home ... at the time the commentators didn't even see what he had done ... it was an absolute ridiculous piece of skill ... and Iniesta's part in it wasn't too shabby either. I'd certainly take that one over Rooney's any day of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rooney watches that all the way unbelievable tekkers Berba's was good but nowhere near as good. Neymar for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plastic_bas Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 For all the praise Rooney's goal deserves, he does hit it with his shin. Surely a shinner can't win the most beautiful goal of 2011?!? It has to be Neymar. There's two bits of skill there which would need me to dislocate my knees before even attempting them. The finish isn't half bad either considering the pressure he's under. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loveofthegame Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 For individual brilliance, it has to go to Neymar IMO. However, anyone who says Rooneys goal isn't one of the all time great goals, given the match it was scored in, the score at the time, the league it was scored in etc etc is having an absolute laugh.
