Apparently someone in the EPL scored with an overhead kick today!

[delparlane 5,691]

I agree there is people who are just jealous because they are so anti-english but my point is if it was another player say Clint Dempsey had scored a goal for Fulham the exact same way the praise wouldn't have been as half as much as Rooney has got simply because he isn't Rooney

No doubt true. That said, is was a helluva goal (even if I'm not Rooney's biggest fan ;-).

An unbelievable bit of brilliance from Wayne Rooney. However, Allan McGregor would have got his gloves to it, and it's no...

Rooney's volley vs. Newcastle was just as special as his overhead yesterday.

No danger Arsenal's 2nd was better than Rooneys, it was barely better than our 2nd today

For sheer technique Rooneys was probably the best premiership goal ever

It was good goal but no chance it was the best ever.

[rfcfraserrfc 262]

If it was berbatov nobody would give a fuck

[MartinGers93 388]

The overreaction from people because it's Rooney is astounding.

[alstone 374]

For the occasion aswell, with man city and all their millions becoming one of the top premiership teams and out playing man utd at old trafford and then for that to happen it was just epic. a goal that will be talked about for a long time to come

[alstone 374]

If it was berbatov nobody would give a fuck

aye coz no one gave a fuck about it when he did it v liverpol?!

[Muff 245]

I don't think it's an overreaction - it was a world class piece of brilliance that should be talked about.

I want to be talking about stuff like this

[alstone 374]

I dont think it was as good as di canios

[Muff 245]

I dont think it was as good as di canios

Neither do I, see above.

[alstone 374]

Neither do I, see above.

Yeah i was agreeing with you, di canio had to do alot more, plus the ball from trevor sinclair was awesome aswell!!

it was better than rooneys one v newcastle though, best goal rooneys ever scored!

[Bonkgers 3]

aye coz no one gave a fuck about it when he did it v liverpol?!

[alstone 374]

I was in turkey watching that game but the papers and the guys at skysports were creaming all over him after it!!

If it had been someone for birmingham then no one would have given that much of a shit but it was still a cracking goal!

[rfcfraserrfc 262]

To the extent of yesterdays goal ?

[Jamie1807 146]

Now THIS is an overhead kick

[BlueSuedeSambas 53,873]

I think Rooneys debut goal against Arsenal was his best ever.

To do that at 16 years old against the English Champions on your debut was unbelievable and the moment that announed his arrival.

[Jamie1807 146]

[rfcfraserrfc 262]

Yes.

But Rooney's yesterday was better.

Obvioulsy, but because he is english a load more is made of the goal

[Sgt. Pepper 117]

If it was a Rangers player that done that against the manky mob we'd be wanting him knighted (and rightly so). The goal was a nailer and deserves all the hype its getting!

Sir Ugoooooo?

Berba's overheader was better than Rooneys, Still a fantastic goal though.

[LegendofCoop 17,381]

Better

Thanks for posting this.....this was one that sprung to mind when I made the thread. I agree there's a vast difference in the standard of games concerned, but how much hype out with Rngers fans di this goal get??

All I'm saying is if this had been scored in the EPL it would have been talked about much much more!

The jealousy of some Scottish folk when it comes to the English premiership is embarrassing!

I'm not jealous if you're referring to me.

Now THIS is an overhead kick

Clincher. I doubt you'll ever see a better executed overhead kick than that anywhere in the world!

[wearethemighty 186]

Rivaldo for Barca vs Valencia, third goal of his hattrick. Chests ball in the air then overhead kick into goal PISSES on Rooneys amazing goal yesterday!

[Scott-RFC 308]

That Rooney OH kick pisses all over Di Canio's volley

Goal of that season maybe, but not any other seasons

Anyone scoring that goal would rightly be lauded, the goal alone was by far the best we've seen this season anyway

Throw in the winner in one of the most important derbies the 2 clubs have ever played and it gets even better

[Briton 394]

It was a fantastic goal and deserves all the credit it's getting.

I posted this in the other thread but is it just me that thinks it went in off his shin pad?

[Orangeclement 570]

goal 2 in this video is 10x better than Rooneys goal and yet most of the UK have never even seen it before ...

That's the 1st time I've seen that goal and I have to agree with u
