Very difficult, very likely that goals from the early part of the decade will fade from memory.

Best Individual goal scored would be Ronaldo v Porto last season

Just a ridiculous hit, Roy of the Rovers stuff.

On a similar line would be Rooney against Newcastle and Scholes against Villa

Best team goal is harder to judge, I am falling into the trap I mentioned at the start of the post with an immediate thought of the counter attack at Arsenal last year

More thought required really.

Some crackers there and I thought of all those goals. But for me, Ronaldo away to Arsenal in that semi final is outstanding.

yeah but seeing as that @#%&! scored it then it doesn't really count.....6-1 would have been a better score considering

It was.

Similar to Rooneys against Bolton. I loved the understanding between Rooney & Ronaldo.
Such a shame that Ronaldo saw his future elsewhere

Agree with Tiberians choices, but like you say it's easy to forget the stuff from the early part of the decade.

Thought both of Carrick's were better, less peroxide too.

Had to have a little think about some of those earlier seasons.

Beckham at Deportiva from 35 yards
Andy Cole with that turn inside and chip against Coventry in the 3-2 at home early 00.
Ruud v Fulham and Basel. Also in the 2-2 at Arsenal in 02/03
Giggs away at Juve
Forlan against Rangers and in the last minute against Chelsea.
O'Shea with the chip at Arsenal in the 4-2, superbly worked and finished.
Rooney in the last minute against Milan, ruined somewhat by the woeful showing in the second leg, but that a great moment in its own right.

His celebration afterward was the pièce de résistance.

Some good stuff lads, it's difficult to pick a favourite.

Here's a great Scholes goal

We are lucky to be followers of this club.

How does Utds performance and achievement this decade compare to the 90's as an overall body of work?

There was the relatively fallow period in the middle of the decade with Fergie taking a lot of criticism, but he has come back and the last 3 years have been tremendous, close to repeating the treble and have went far in all the major competitions, and the last 3 years has seen Utd have their best and most consistent European performances in their history.

YouTube- Paul Scholes vs. Panathinaikos

Thats a great team goal, probably my personal favourite, scholes has scored some beauties, the strike direct from a corner v bradford and a similar volley at villa come to mind...

tbf - all these goals are lucky.
