Premier 20

[Gribz 919]

Sky running a wee page to celebrate 20 years of the Premier League by having a vote on:

Best Match

Best Goal

Best Celebration

Best Save

Best Team XI

 

Best Player and manager will also be awarded but not a public vote.

 

Some of the choices Sky put up are a bit bizarre especially for best match, the 8-2 for Man U v Arsenal and 6-1 for Man City v Man Utd werent exactly classic matches.. I can also record a couple of saves Rob Green made when West Ham were the first side to win at Emirates in 2007 which would easily make the list. And Im sure there would be a few better goals than the 10 listed.

 

You can see each one here: http://www1.skysports.com/20seasons

 

My choices from the options provided:

Best Match: Liverpool 4-4 Arsenal

Best Goal: I loved that Yeboah strike but Bergkamps genius at Newcastle still confuses me when I see it.

Best Celebration: Got to give it to Bullard for that piss take.

Best Save: Craig Gordon. When he did that I was watching it live and posted it on here straight away that Gordon has just pulled off the best save ive ever seen.

Best team: Going by everyone at their peak:

 

Schmeichel, Neville, Adams, Terry, Winterburn, Ronaldo, Keane, Vieira, Giggs, Shearer, Henry.

 

Left back was tough between Cole, Irwin and Winterburn but the latter being vocal and a bit more of a leader wins in for me. So tough to not include Gerrard, Scholes and Bergkamp in the team.
