Bad Wolf Posted 26 October, 2016 Share Posted 26 October, 2016 Was literally just about to type that! Think that Ipswich goal was his only goal for us? Other than JPT penalties. He actually scored against Charlton in that competition. Martina for me, that was the best goal I've ever seen at St Mary's. Then Boufal's tonight then Skacel's Vs Yeovil. Can I bring everyone's memory to Bradley Wright Phillips first goal for us? Same game as Bale's, my first ever away game at Derby. That wasn't bad. Also Dexter Blackstock against P*mpey. It wasn't anything to look at but great goals can be important ones. I think that was his first goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say all sensational screamers are flukes, in the sense a miss by an inch or two would result in either a goalie save, or missing the goal by a fraction. MLT screamers aside of course, but he only scored one first goal for us I hear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree but from behind the goal at the time for Martina's, I thought he was trying to cross it and it went wrong (luckily!). Boufal's (from the video at least) looked controlled and intentional.

Kingsland Codger Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 Marian Pahars - not so much for the quality of the goal but for the context. Saints fighting relegation but losing 3-1 at home to Blackburn, get one back from someone (Mark Hughes?) and then Marian gets his first and the draw with only a few minutes left. Another worthy of being mentioned in despatches - Jan Paul Saijs (sp?) on a miserable midweek night during The Dark Days. He scored both goals in an away draw, one of which was a real belter, but I can't recall if this was the first or the second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitch Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 Cuco. Boufal's was special last night, but you were expecting him to do something like that at some point.

hackedoff Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 Graham Baker, many years ago within 1 minute of his debut I believe. Cant remember how good the goal was compared to others but it seemed good at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fez Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 In recent memory, it's Martina v Boufal. Cuco's swerve was unbelievable but I'm going for Sofiane because of the initial touch and control he achieved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The9 Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 Boufal's tonight was special, but Martina's was one where you couldn't believe your own eyes, even after watching it a few times. I was quite pleased to see Cuco's absolutely bloody awful shot a couple of weeks ago, similar outside of the boot attempt, mis-hit, went sideways and about 15 yards wide, it put the Arsenal one into context.

bpsaint Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 Chris Baird scored an absolute belter in the Championship, he might have had 1 or 2 from set pieces earlier in the season though. At home to Cardiff, absolutely smashed a free kick from at least 30-35 yards. Bridgey's first goal was a pretty decent strike 1:20 onwards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuco's swerve was unbelievable but I'm going for Sofiane because of the initial touch and control he achieved I favour Martina because it does justice to the word 'unbelievable', which is so overused it's practically meaningless. We see goals like Boufal's every few weeks from talented forwards, but watching your reserve right back blam that in really was difficult to comprehend on the night.

SNSUN Posted 27 October, 2016 Share Posted 27 October, 2016 I remember David Hughes scoring an overhead kick in the 90's. Was that his first? Was a pretty decent goal from memory. Also Vignal scored his first with a free kick apparently, but I don't remember it. Dark days of the lower leagues.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
