Isolation is getting to me.

What’s that? You’d like me to produce a list of my favourite/criminally underrated goals? Okay, if you insist.

1 - James vs Japan. Everyone talks about his goal of the tournament, this one goes under the radar.
2 - Ronaldo vs West Ham.

Ronaldo gets the goal, but what big Berba produces before it does strange things to me. Dimitar was some player.
3 - Tom Huddelstone vs City.

This was doing rounds recently, as it was part of a high quality goal of the month competition, I think.

Some football twitter virgins said it was the worst one out the lot.

They are wrong. Technique is magnificent.
4 - Suarez vs Newcastle.

Stupidly good. The beautiful control in the split seconds he has to decide what to do is genius.

Also, he takes it round the keeper, which is football fetish of mine.
5 - Iredale vs Dundee United

Moving to Scotland for this one, and maybe possibly perhaps being a bit biased.

Big Jack’s solo run from LB in a 3-0 win over United will stand out in many ‘Ton fans recent memory.
6 - Van Dijk vs St Johnstone

Staying in Scotland, and not very proud about posting this one 🙄

When I think of Van Dijk, I don’t think about the CB he is now, I think about him slicing through that St Johnstone side like butter.
7 - Umtiti vs Spurs

Hawd that.
8 - Ayew vs West Ham

If a Hazard, Salah or Sterling etc produced this then we would still be talking about it today.

And, this was a late winner as well. Great goal.
9 - Pavard vs Argentina

First of two requests. @anguslewis21 suggested this, and Angus Lewis is correct, this is a screamer.

Pretty sure I won about £30 as well because of this goal, which makes it even better.
10 - Van Nistelrooy vs Charlton

@shakyboy88 with this one. I think a lot of people forget how good a player RVN was in his prime, such a gifted goalscorer.
11 - Puyol vs Germany.

One of my favourite goals from one of my all-time favourite players. Could have put a brick wall in front of him, he’d still make that header.

Also, it was a World Cup semi-final - unreal.
12 - Prunty vs Livingston

This goal went viral at the time, remember seeing repeated on Soccer AM the following week. Prunty also got goal of the season for it too.

But honestly look at that, fuck me.
13 - Can vs Watford

I can’t actually remember people making a big deal about this, or it just faded from my memory.

Great goal though, from a player you wouldn’t expect to see doing 360’ bicycle shot in to the upper 90’.
