Seriously though, should be Stankovic or Messi v Madrid
Samir Nasri (ARSENAL 2-1 Fulham, Premier League, December 4, 75 min)
For your consideration — Erwin Hoffer of Kaiserslautern. Easy to overlook, as 1FCK were not on most people’s radar, but this very important late-season goal surely merits consideration. 1FCK were down 2-1, and with this goal began their comeback to win 2-4.

Hi David. Thanks for sharing that link. A delightfully constructed goal. Not convinced that it merits inclusion in the Goals of the Season shortlist though…
Fair enough, thanks for taking a look. I really enjoy your coverage & tweets of Ligue 1 — keep up the great work!
My favourites are either Stankovic vs Schalke, or this one:
Messi vs. Villarreal:

Yes, that Messi goal against Villarreal made my shortlist. He scored a very similar goal against Panathinaikos in the Champions League as well.
