Dalian Atkinson's goal vs Wimbledon in 92/93 where he dribbled past 4-5 players and then lobbed the keeper from outside the box is better than MOST of these goals. If you haven't seen it, it's a must watch. Also, Aston Villa's team goal vs Newcastle in the same year is one of the most underrated goals around. 4-5 glorious passes, brilliant vision, touch, movement and understanding. Both goals are on in this link.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhGvYcqJRKk
