comeback wins, how many can you remember?

pretty shambolic today but you can't get better than a comeback win

apparently our 13th PL win from two goals down. off the top of my head...

2-3 v city, cantona and keane
3-5 v spurs
5-2 v spurs
2-4 v Everton, Chris eagles
2-3 v Blackpool away?
2-3 v city, pogba a few years ago
2-3 v Southampton, van persie debut

Newcastle Boxing Day Pea winner, 4-3?

£#%&!ing loads tbh I’d have thought there’d been more than 13..

The 5-3 at Spurs will never be forgotten by those old enough to remember it

West ham away when rooney swore at the camera?

Villa away i think when pea scored the winner

Not from 2 down but really vividly remember us coming back against Sunderland to win 2-1 in 02/03. Beckham and Scholes scored I think. It’s a weird game to hold so dear but I watched it with my first proper friend I made after moving to England - who sadly passed only a few years later.

Were we ever two behind in that one?

I do remember you ranting about Freggle throughout the game though

Can’t recall but remember a smashing 2-3 away win at Villa Park in the FA Cup. RvN smashing one past Schmikes

There was a Newcastle game just before Jose got sacked that i swear we were a couple of goals behind in

Pogba went to centre half/sweeper. Played really well.

Juve 99

Edit- just realised you said PL

Still worth a mention imo, best and perhaps most important comeback from 2-0 down I’ve ever seen.

Vividly remember the comeback as we only managed to turn it around in last 5-10 mins, shaky on who scored the second goal. Beckham definitely scored the first.

There was one v Hull under Moyes. Blocked most of that season out obvs.

Crystal Palace away when Matic scored late on.

We did Villa at Villa Park in the league ( I think)

Hernandez.

Southampton away in the Covid season when Cavani scored twice off the bench.

Think this is the full list:

City 1993/94
Spurs 2001/02
Everton 2006/07
Spurs 2008/09
Blackpool 2010/11
West Ham 2010/11
Villa 2012/13
Hull 2013/14
City 2017/18
Palace 2017/18
Newcastle 2018/19
Southampton 2020/21
Forest 2023/24

Was the Van Persie hat trick away at Southampton not a 2 nil start? Either way, it was a wonderful game.

Think we went 1 up in that game, or he equalised. Can't remember. Took it on chest and smashed it in.

Only 13? Seems way more than that.

Couple against Spurs where we still managed to smash 5 past them.

Think you're right. £#%&!ing Schneiderlin scored to make it 2-1

nice one.

I'm actually surprised there is only 13 and almost half are in the post fergie era.

I suppose you have to be a bit shit to go 2-0 in the first place..
