Rooney vs Pele

[alan partridge]

it was a fantastic goal from Rooney, but the outporing of GUSH about it is starting to ruin my enjoyment of it

Trevor Sinclair all the way.

It is a beauty, but not even in the top ten of all time IMHO.

Everyone has got incredibly carried away because it's Rooney and we've been dying for him to finally rediscover some of the form of last season (until the injury in the Chumps League) and because it was in the Manc Derby.

I would be very surprised if I don't see 10 better goals THIS SEASON let alone all time.

No Pele video yet, so - Escape to Victory:

and for NY Cosmos (Portuguese commentary says why it's the perfect bicycle kick):

A microcosm of the second world war probably represents a bigger grudge match than the Manchester derby...and of course Pele was nursing a serious rib injury when he scored his. Also his goal was so good it made a high ranking Nazi stand up and applaud.

thats the answer! did u hear Vinny Jones is doing a remake of Escape to Victory!

I'd also add that the comeback from 4-0 down to 4-4 in Escape to Victory rather puts the Newcastle v Arsenal game in the shade, even if there was a tunnel escape from St James' Park.
