• Barnes goal

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 6:30 pm**

Incredible goal from Barnes today! Is it our best goal this season?

I happened to see Vardy's goal at West Brom at h/t today and didn't think I would see a better goal today....Barnes' goal is right up there with it!

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 6:35 pm**

ours was a better team goal and a very good finish, Vardy's was a brilliant finish (the little ****)

Jeff Stelling said when the goal went in "is he English or Austrian we could do with him in the world cup". What a finish.

When he hits them,he hits them with some power,no goalie in the world would have got anywhere near that strike..Fantastic strike ..

Tina Turner simply the best

The view from behind looks like it goes in at about 100mph

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 6:54 pm**

Unbelievable strike today. Thought he was absolutely brilliant. Just love him. And this team. And this manager. And this club.

Good lad Jeff.
It's my favourite goal of the season so far I'd say.
A top of the top draw finish.
If he'd been Brazilian or such like, they'd be oohing and aahing about it till the cows come home.

Great technique and a beautiful finish. No keeper would have saved that.

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 7:09 pm**

Was very tasty. Barnes and Wood should be targeting double figures - a realistic aim if they can continue playing together for the next 8 (?) games.

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 7:18 pm**

Which do you reckon was better, todays or the one he rifled into top corner at Spurs

It's my second favourite this season. Defour's goal against Utd won't be beaten.

I can't get it to play on here but here is the view from the other end

I thought his all round game was very good today, some nice hold up play and layoffs and seems more aware of those around him than he used to -- and I love that he is never afraid to have a pop at goal. That shot today he really hit superbly and a fine diagonal run and set up from Wood.

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 8:40 pm**

I like Ashley Barnes.

Posted: **Sat Mar 10, 2018 8:43 pm**

Thought Lowtons pass to Wood was as good, or better, than his pass v Everton

I didn’t think Barnes got much joy in the first half - the ball wasn’t sticking and he wasn’t winning headers. However, as soon as Wood went up there with him they were both a real handful.

But the cows would beat him for pace

Lowton is class. He, Barnes and Mee, among others, have had their best season to date, by my reckoning at least.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 8:49 am**

From behind the goal where we were it almost looked routine and as he ran onto it you almost expected Barnes to score, but from the other angles you see how far out he really is and it's a brilliant strike.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 8:55 am**

Having seen it it had a touch of Aguerro from City. Awesome bend on it and unstoppable

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 9:28 am**

West Ham goal was a better finish because he was further out but for me Barnes goal against Everton was better.

Beautiful control and pass up the line by Tarks, followed by an even better pass by Lowton, curled around the defender into space for Barnes to run onto and finish with the perfect unstoppable shot.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 9:34 am**

There can`t be many strikers out there who can hit a ball as cleanly and powerfully as Ashley. Where does yesterday`s rank in the pantheon of stunners he`s scored? Tottenham away the `best`?

It`s night and day as a lone man and as part of a front two. He still works incredibly hard as a `loner` but never feel he`s going to score. Put him alongside A N other and not only is he a man possessed but a striker with an incredible eye for goal. Irreplaceable!

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 11:10 am**

If the net wasn't there, that ball would STILL be travelling. Awesome strike. He proper walloped it.

I'll be very surprised if we see it again though.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:03 pm**

Great finish but such an easy football move

That's exactly what Hendrick should be doing, arriving to support the striker and having a few digs at goal.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:07 pm**

Didn't even realise he hit it first time, thought he took a touch. Amazing.

Exactly. Some shirt hyperbolic memories on here haha

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:23 pm**

I too recalled it as a straightforward side foot finish when in truth it was an absolute screamer. One of the goals of the season for me.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:33 pm**

Look at the attitude and demeanour of their No2 when Wood turns to pass to Barnes.

If that was a Burnley player we would up in arms about it, and Dyche would have had his
wotsits on a pole outside the turf.

That's what sets this great team apart from the majority in this league.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:36 pm**

Barnes is just what England could do with in Russia, he would put the fear of God into any defence in the world.

He is a better proposition than the two midgets we had playing up front in the euros

But he doesn't qualify, he played for Austria.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 12:46 pm**

Well there goes any hope of us lifting the trophy

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 1:02 pm**

Yesterday's goal and the Tottenham one both quality,surprised no-one mentioned the Palace one in the last minute ..
How many strikers wouid of taken a touch or arched to get it on their stronger foot ? Not Ash .. If the keeper had got in
the way he would of hit the back of the net with it !!

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 4:04 pm**

He can hit em with both feet

Actually he does - that was in the junior teams so still free to declare

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 4:07 pm**

According to brooking his goal caused all the problems yesterday.

Good lad ash

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 4:15 pm**

Top 3 away looking like, Ward at Chelsea, Defour at Unt and Ash at Spam.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 4:21 pm**

What about Ashley's finish at city in the cup? That was blistering!

I know Hendrick is currently persona non grata around here, but his goal at Goodison takes some beating.

He would put the fear of God into God. (If God existed

And a short memory from me as well. Cracking team goal.

Posted: **Sun Mar 11, 2018 4:57 pm**

Has ash played for Austria at senior level?
Kane' s injury might just of opened a door for him in the England squad

Brady at Bournemouth was also a superb goal.
Not much between that and Ash’s.
