[Albion] Goal of the Season

[Arthur]

Wasn't a contest last season but very very hard this year.

Mitoma against Wolves will I expect probably win. But so many other belters. FB's against Sheff Utd, Joao Pedro against Palace, both of Pervis', any of Welbeck's.

When you see the goals scored by players out injured it's no wonder we have struggled over the last couple of months.

Tough choice for the best

Mitoma by a distance.

There are some others that feature a great move and a great finish (Joao v Palace, Joao v Marseilles), and some that are just a terrific strike (Welbeck v Roma, Buonanotte at Sheffield Utd) - but any professional footballer has it in them to strike the occasional ball into the top corner. Very, very few can do what Mitoma did.

There is actually only one goal that rivals it, for me, and astonishingly, it isn't on the list 30 pass move (seven of them by Groß himself, before a sublime dummy and finish):

Thought of this very goal while watching the video too.

What really stands out is how many of these goals were the result of taking a really quick (unexpected) strike, rather than the temptation in the latter part of the season to faff about, take 2-3 more extra touches and try and walk it in. That's maybe a confidence thing, but it's really noticeable how instinctive a lot of these goals are.

Mitoma's goal is sheer class. Facu's Sheff. Utd strike gets better every time I watch it.. and Pedro's Marseille and Palace goals makes the ol' hairs stand out on the neck. Also... with all our injuries - thank God we had Welbeck fit for most of the season.

Has to be Mitoma's. An individual work of genius.

2nd place, Pedro's Vs Palace, wonderful move and finish. And celebration

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

While Mitoma’s is still my fave I think I had forgotten Adingra’s v SU which is also very good - as are a lot of them!

 

[Invicta]

Mitoma's is the best but I love Hinshelwood lashing it in, in front of the North Stand and his sheer joy!

 

[Nibbler]

Has to be Welbz against palace due to the perfect placement down to the cm... and it's against palace.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

Mitoma for me, but surprised Estupinian against Tottenham hasn't got more mentions

Estu might have diminished it by scoring such a similar goal against Stoke the next month (also nominated).

 

[Albion my Albion]

Doesn't it have to be the goal in the April match against Burnley's Muric. I mean, we hardly moved to score that goal.

I thought before I watched the video I'd pick Mitoma against Wolves, now I don't know. It's between that and Pedro's goals against Palace and Marseille (h). The video doesn't do either goal justice though in showing the great build up play. If i remember correctly the goal against Palace came at the end of about 30 passes and Palace chasing shadows, the final pass for both goals are absolutely sublime.

I see where you're coming from but the move that I liked best was the one leading up to Pascal's finish against Man Utd which, bizarrely in my view, hasn't been selected in the long list.

At least I'm not alone on this one.

I'm the same.

I think technically the Mitoma goal is the best (it's how I imagine the mythical Nelson goal away at Brentford was like) but I just love the two Pedro goals, for the occasions and for the celebrations as much as the quality.

All three will go down in folklore I reckon.

It's highly emotive for all the right reasons

as soon as the ball arrived at his feet you think left/right high/low . . . But . . . . . . Kill the keeper is old school AND new wave.

joyous.

These are an OUTSTANDING goal.

Mitoma's should win but I really like Mr Goodnights 2nd goal in his trio of goals I'd forgotten he'd scored.

Funny how memory plays tricks. Your right!
