Best goal ever is Le Tissiers against Newcastle
Simples
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That wasn't even Le Tissier's best goal ever, in my opinion.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Aye, I think his striker against Blackburn at Ewood is Le Tiss's best goal, not that the Newcastle goal wasn't exceptional mind.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's the one I was thinking of.

That's all very well, but you still haven't explained what "world class" actually means.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's easy... someone who Stretty would consider good enough for the UTD squad
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dele Alli = world class?
No one with any sense would ever use Stretty's opinions as a guide line as to who or what is world class.
And yes, Ji, I know you were not being serious.
Giggs cup goal v Arsenal,totally unsurpassable for quality and drama and what it meant. Maybe not the quality bit.....

And Shane long
There is without doubt an element of bias in this, but for me you'd do well to find more impressive moments of perfection than Scholes's volleys against Villa and Bradford. I've watched them a hundred times, and still can't quite believe them.
For another display of incredible technique, see the Zlatan's overhead scissor kick for Sweden against England. He's absolutely miles off the ground when he connects with the ball.
Saw some good United goals at West Ham on Facebook today. Beckham's chip in 01-02 was divine. We won 5-3.
The match situation, quality of opposition comes into it. That's why for me, Bergkamp's sublime last minute winner against Zanetti and Argentina is my personal favourite.

When you say what constitutes I take it you mean what factors constitute to create the best goal rather than asking which is the best goal in our opinions.
I'm sure those boffins at Oxbridge have come up with the winning formula but for me it would be an equation including the following factors:
- quality of opposition
- importance of game
- significance of goal in deciding the game
- uniqueness of goal (i.e. how often has the type of goal been scored before)

This^^
Contextually this was the greatest goal.
Arsenal were a bunch of thugs and simulators at that period in their history, and they got what they deserved.
Zlatan's overhead kick from 30 yards is still the best goal i've ever seen. Been saying it for years.
Not the best, but Justin Fashanu's against Liverpool was the first goal that made me go wow!
