The best 10 Villa goals?

[frank]

Apologies if this compilation has appeared elsewhere. It's from Square Football. Quite rightly, Dalian's goal is considered the best, with Matt Lowton 8th.

I am suprised that Chris Nicholls thunderbolt or Kent Neillsons screamer arn't in there but football is all about opinions.

He's only chosen goals from 1990 on.  I'd have included Alan Wright at WHL in 2000

I hadn't seen the Daley one from 1990 or the Yorke one from 1993 before; great stuff.

If you watch the whole of the Tony Daley footage, there's a shed load in there that easily could have made the top 10.

Luton 1990, Everton 1988 to name but 2.

The last minute goal to seal the 2-0 win at Albion in the Cup in 1990 will also live long in the memory. Magic behind that goal when he buried that.

If I'm honest I think Lowton should be 3rd from the 10 he linked, Atkinson's is special and the yorke goal would be regarded a wonder goal by any team from any period but the rest have very little between them.  I rank Lowton's higher because of the level of technique involved, wonderful control and a clean strike with 2 players closing him down fast, all the other long range belters had time to set themselves first.

When I saw the goal on Saturday, I was thinking, "Wow! That was Gary Cahill-esque!".  Although, I think Lowton's goal should of been ranked much higher in that list.

I have to say, I had no idea Daley scored quite so many excellent goals.

Great video!

That team in 1993 was just fantastic. And the year after Manyooo had it stuck right up'em at Wembley. Marvelous selection of goals that.

I'd have Daley's goal against Luton ahead of the Chavski one.

Deano against Ipswich could be in there too but not sure who to leave out!

Plus I've discovered that if I try to type "Deano" into my phone it corrects it to Frank, who started this topic. Spooky, eh?

[ACVilla]

I have no recollection of that Yorke goal in '93. How good did a full Villa Park look then.

I hadn't seen the Daley one from 1990 or the Yorke one from 1993 before; great stuff.

Shaun Teale was the only outfield player not to touch the ball in the build up to Yorke's goal. I'd have probably missed that game had I noty come down with German Measles a few days before towards the end of term at University and going home earlier than originally planned.

[Deano's Mullet]

76 goals from the Premier League era.

No one mentioned Kent Nielsen vs Inter Milan yet? No? Well feast your eyes once more.

Dalian Atkinson double vs Sheffield Weds 1992

7 magnificent goals vs Wimbledon 1995
