Add / Remove ONE goal from ONE game ever played...

[Whaddapie]

Heard a cracking question posed on a podcast I was listening to this morning...

If you could add one more goal to OR erase one goal from a match that's been played in the past, what one would it be?

That's a fecking beauty, isn't it? I really have to think about my answer... Nothing jumps straight out, initially.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Kompany's goal against Leicester

 

[Beamrider]

Michael Thomas, it's up for grabs now... and the cunt has missed. Unlucky Gooners.

 

[Fabio]

That effort travels that extra 5mm and is given as a goal at the etihad

 

[Modo]

Inzaghi's goal in the 2007 CL final.

 

[tombrown]

End thread

Can't believe I scrolled down and was thinking about each one as I read them.

Cantona in the 96 cup final maybe, but all the main ones are done already

 

[Whaddapie]

Yes, that goal in '89 and/or that non-goal at the emptyhad would normally be my choices, too.

But I think it might end up being the Stevie G slip goal for me... If that doesn't happen and we just draw that match, I am 100% certain that we'd have gone on to win the league and no player has ever deserved a championship medal like he did. Him not winning the league, becuase of THAT match is f@#!ing tragic.

 

[Woland]

With the benefit of a decade in the way, I'm just glad it was all Gerrard's fault to be honest.

 

[ajco07]

Add a goal to the Man City game at there ground two seasons ago domestic treble think that would be the best

 

[binomial]

Kompany v Leicester was the most unthinkable.
Thomas last min was perhaps the most gut wrenching.
Ba was the most degrading.
Firmino v City when it was millimeters away from being a goal.

Ultimately whichever you pick, they all resulted in the same consequence in losing out on the title.

I pick Thomas.

Yes and Rodgers stays on as manager for 2-3 more years. Klopp joins Man U

 

[Beamrider]

Just checking that everyone knows we lost 2-0 to Chelsea in that Demba Ba game.
I get the whole “but they wouldn’t have scored the second goal” thing, but that’s not how this thing works.

They wouldn't.

 

[SummerOnions]

They wouldn't.

Yeah exactly. For giving Gerrard a title I'd pick this game or frankly any in that season which would have fixed the damage

City away would have done it - 3 point swing. Fucking Lee Mason.

 

[Whaddapie]

Yep - Good shout.

Or, if people are saying the '89 season, I'd not do that 2nd goal... I'd change the 2-2 with Wednesday or the 0-0 with Everton earlier in the year, so that final match would have just been a 90 minute long celebration.

 

[Athens]

That goal in 1990 that stopped Ferguson from getting sacked from the utd job.

 

[Farkmaster]

I'm going to use mine to just punch Pickford in the nuts right before he assaults Van Dijk. Actually I'd never remember the date, so I'd have to just go back in some other random point in time and punch him in the nuts, and if it doesn't have a butterfly effect, i still punched him in the nuts.

 

[reuque]

Any of Arshavins goals in that 4-4 match...

 

[refugee]

I don't think we'd have ever scored in that game. They have just scored again or would have won 3-0 on penalties

 

[rurikbird]

That Macheda goal for United. I would have loved to see Rafa’s team win the title. Especially grating since that fucker hasn’t done anything of note since.

Excellent shout

 

[binomial]

Rodri v Inter and Lukaku v City (all in 1 motion)

 

[Markeh]

Nobody tempted to take away that Agueroooooo goal? Suppose it just gives a title to United so it’s ultimately of little consequence to a Liverpool fan.

Nope, regrettably cheered that goal like we'd won the league.

Never thought they'd forge into this despicable club where I almost.........hate them more than Utd, almost.

I’m thinking from the pov of not having to listen to it for years after, also the solksjaer or sherringham champions league goals for the same reason.

 

[rurikbird]

If Gerrard hadn’t slipped, we might not have gotten Klopp, so I’m at peace with that one.

Yeah I know but I still cheered it back then, which I can't take back......even using that pov it'd make me not be true to myself and a bit of a phony.

If Gerrard hasn’t slipped, we might not have gotten Klopp, so I’m at peace with that one.

Ranieri got sacked 6 months after winning the title.....that was at Leicester, even if Brodge woulda won it then without the slip no way would he have survived another 18 months of shit which included the most embarrassing result in the clubs history.

 

[Brizzle]

Gundogan’s goal last game of the season also a contender. That’s PL and both cups won.

I would probably choose to remove that Kompany goal though.
