more recently, gerrard vs boro at anfield last season has to be up there.
Oh man - I'd completely forgotten about that one. If anyone has a clip of that one, I'll be massively grateful.
Another one that springs to mind is back in the late 80s/early 90s - Ronnie Whelan chipped Steve Ogrizovic from about 20 yards. Particularly remarkable because Ogrizovic was on his line at the time - it was just so delicately and perfectly placed that he couldn't get to it. I think the club nominated it as their goal of the season that year as part of a competition Saint & Greavsie were running.

Most people have already named the ones running through my head (plus a few I'd forgotten/not seen) so, for the sake of originality, I'll add...
1) Xabi scoring from his own half against Luton (worth it for Stevie's reaction alone )
2) Didi's penalty against Milan...not because it was a spectacular strike but because, feck me, the man had a broken foot!

Oh, and let's not forget Carra's goal against FBK Kaunas back in July!
A vital away goal in the first leg of a Champions League qualifier...
The match-winning goal...
And Carra's first in 7 years!

I'm giving away my age but two that were pure class were Terry McDermott's against Sopurs in 78 completinga 7-0 drubbing and one he scored around the same time which was Goal Of The Season when he chipped the keeper from the edge of the box after a flowing passing move......
Recent ones are Jar's free kick against the Mancs and Stevie G's screamer against the same .......
I was at brum last week and the 4th goal was a work of art followed by another Riise thunderbolt
No one has mentioned Mellors last minute winner against the Gooners either last season.......
The one that sent me crazy above all others was Macca's last minute free kick in Dortmund 2001. For pure drama and exhiliration that has to be up there ....

funny enough Terry Macs goals were ones i was thinking of too.I also remember him rounding off a great move that started in our penalty area and 3 passes later finished with him heading a great goal......

Most emotional goal - Traore against Burnley (but I'm not saying which emotion)
Goal I most enjoyed at the time - all three against AC Milan.

I've just been skimming through this thread again and have enjoyed following the posted links and seeing some of these goals for the first time (Fowler !!!)
Is there someone out there, more techno-savvy than I, who could dig up some links to some of the other great goals mentioned?
Any excuse to avoid work would be welcomed!

there was a goal scored by Steve Mcmanaman in the uefa cup about 6 or 7 years ago, i can remember which club it was against, anyway Macca was clean through on goal and i think it was the keeper who forced Macca out wide towards the corner flag, the keeper moved back towards his goal and Macca from the bye line near the corner flag Parallel with the goal, the angle was as tight as a german virgin , and he managed to lift the ball over the retreating keeper and curled it in to the goal, i thought that was quite amazing. anyone remember that one?

All those mentioned were great goals....
Keegan v St Etienne in the game supersub scored the winner.
Jamie Redknap also scored some absolute screamers in his time- a player for me who would have been awesome had injuries not spoiled his career.
