Favourite player moments XI

[Notsosuperstevedavis]

With all the good things happening at the club and on the field it got me thinking. For you, what moment for each player stands out as your own personal favourite.

Their must be loads of stand out moments for all of the players. I'd like to see what you consider your own to be and help others be reminded of things that may have slipped from memory. (Most of mine will be recent memories as I'm not that old and the current team hinder selection a little)

I'm not a season ticket holder, but do go on when I can and sing my heart out for the lads in the CFS. My dad still doesn't get why we sing 'We are the long side' - but that's another story.

So I'll start. Please help me fill in the blanks. I hope this turns out to be a good thread.

Heaton
His save from Ibrahimovic

Lowton
???????????

Mee
His clearance of the line with his head, despite the striker trying to score from six yards and decapitate young Ben in the process. The ball went over from six inches off the line from memory.

Keane.
His second (Equalising) goal at Brighton. After his first had been disallowed. Pure joy, determination and defiance on his face.

Ward.
His recent Premier league goal against Bournemouth. He doesn't score many.

Tarks
Was it against Man city in the middle of the park where he did a pirouette and drag the ball around two Man city players to make two very expensive midfielders look very silly? Loved this bit of skill and look forward to seeing a lot more of this lad in the future

Arfield
Scoring his beaut against the bastards and subsequent celebration. There were a few I could have picked for Scott

Boyd
Tough one this. He's had a few good moments. And you really see the joy in his celebrations. It's s joy to watch him celebrate a goal never mind anything else. His Goal against City at Turf Moor in the Premier is the first one that comes to mind, although there could be better choices.

Gudmundsson
He's not been with us long. So his goal against Palace is an easy choice.

Marney
Stuck on this one.

Barton
I know it's lazy, but yesterday's goal celebration was better than the goal for me. You really could see what it meant to him to be back at the club and how much the club means to him. This guy could go on to be a modern day favourite fir some time.

Defour
This little magician has done a few good things already, but it's an obvious stand out goal against Hull that needs to be picked for me.

Hendrick
Not been with us long, my fave is his goal against Watford

Kightly
His goal against Blackpool that took us up. This goal and the win meant we were mathematically up and there was no disputing our promotion back to the prem.

Barnes
So many favourites. This is one of the hardest. He loves his goals for us so much! Stuck between the home goal that was part of a beautiful flowing move where he smashed it into the middle of the net on the volley from six yards (vokes cross?) and the man city game where he got a brace and made it 2-2. I could pick every goal he scores to be honest.

Gray
Lots to go at with Gray, but as he's so recently bagged his first top flight hatrick, I'm going with that.

Vokes
He does so many good things that maybe lead upto goals as well as his own goals it's really hard to pick a favourite moment.


I'm sure you guys will help with the blanks and come up with some better moments than myself, hoping to get stew replies and re-live some of the highlights you pick out.

Thanks in advance.

Surely You've missed Hendrick vs Bournemouth.

Some good moments on there.
Vokes v QPR for me. Felt like he deserved that.

As good as Heatons save at United was I actually think the one down at Southampton was better.

[taio]

I don't know why, because looking back there's better moments, but I went f****n mental when Barnes scored against Crystal Palace.

Wigan too

[Notsosuperstevedavis]

Yes taio that was a good goal. It was almost a carbon copy of the one I picked out myself.

As for heatons save v Saints, I agree it probably was a better save - as was yesterday's double save at the foot of the post. Worth the entry fee alone and a certain 2 extra points. Well worth remembering.

How could I forget Jeff's goal Bournemouth??

[taio]

When Schmeichel said Heaton's save at old Trafford was one of the best in PL history it's worth taking note.

[Claretmatt4]

Lowtons celebration v Boro where he was holding that young claret aloft?

[lanky22222]

My Matt Lowton one would be when we scored at Brighton late on - some Albion player had tussled with him from the corner and when Keano scored he just turned round and celebrated in his face. love it

[Lord Beamish]

Lowton; dummy and cross for Own Goal Keogh to do his stuff and set us on our way to a smashing 4:1 win against Perennial Premiership Dodgers Derby.

[Notsosuperstevedavis]

Would have liked to have seen that lanky. Probably no better way to get the last laugh.

[Ric_C]

Ditto for Lowton.

Andre trolling reading with his tweet about being champ player of the year was pretty awsome (after they scuffed the spot up)

The big pile on after the boro equaliser was right in front of me, and Matty Taylor kicked and broke the ad board

Scotty Arf has so many great moments, just shows how much of a legend he's been for us.

Joey sticking two fingers up to the rovers fans saying that we had done the double over them

Vokes goal against Belgium, I was so proud of him

[Lord Beamish]

Vokes; has to be the goal against QPR to get us promoted last year. He was so unlucky to miss out through injury two years earlier. His zig-zagging run between two defenders to get onto Joey's free-kick at the near post shows what an intelligent Centre Forward he is.

[Jambounchained]

Goosebumps reading these.

[ElectroClaret]

Definitely the late winner from Barnes against Palace.

Pandemonium.

[Notsosuperstevedavis]

Ric C. I so nearly put his goal for Wales in the Euros.
