My gosh. This brings back some super memories..
Still one of the finest premiership goals ever.
Made me smile remembering this.

Absolutely. I've rarely seen us so dominant in a game.

Since the Payet free kick was mentioned - this will forever be the best angle of it. It's filmed by a Palace fan and you hear someone let out a little cheer as he thinks it's sailing over - only for that to become "Oh, you [unintelligible]". Magic.

Was watching it on Sky. My dad had died the previous Saturday so wasn't up to much but that goal put the smile back on my face. Dad would have loved it.

I was in the BML that day and can still remember the buzz for the next 10/15 minutes after he scored. Everyone in the ground was just talking at the same time about what they’d just seen.
I’m trying not be be bias but I’ve watched it a couple more times today and everything about it is just perfection. The cross field pass from Foe (RIP), the beautiful driven cross from Sinclair and the ridiculously brilliant finish from Di Canio.
The slow-motion angle where you see him completely off the ground and doing the perfect bicycle kick is unreal. Martin Tyler and Andy Gray’s commentary adds to the moment.

Sincs' crossball mentioned, lefty, do NOT worry.
As Covid demands they were just stringing out the conversation as there's no actual sport NOW to talk about.
Oh look, I've found it again on a tiny telly.

I agree with moose, hands down the greatest goal the PL has ever seen. I think i watched it on repeat about 30 times today. Pure genius.
The thing that gets lost in it all is what an absolute cracker of a cross it was from Sinclair as well.

Should have won about 5-0 that day
How it was 2-1 was amazing & the Wimbledon Shitcunts got off very lightly.
When you see a goal like that there is a short silence as everyone in the ground tries to work out whether they just saw what they saw.
The only other goal at Upton Park I can recall having that reaction since was Payets free kick against Palace that looked like it was 3 ft over the bar. And then suddenly it was in the net.

Was this Kanoute's first game as well?? Remember loads of singing with `Harry Sign him up' being sung...

Was in the BML for this.
The overriding memory I have was the applause afterwards. Seemed like it went on for ages.

They were discussing in some tedious detail on Talkshite this am. Berkamp this. Thierry that.
"The greatest goal the Premier League has EVER seen." Said the Moose fella. And no one else.
Cheers, Parlo. Got your boots?

Loved watching that team and he was a brilliant player, but clearly barking mad.
Number 2 in my list of favourites behind Dicks and due to what football has become, it's a list that'll never be changing.

PDC got me off my seat (well I never sat down but you know what I mean) than any other player... and I had been going since 1970 ... the absolute and utter entertainer...

They were just showing it on Sky Sports news
Started by showing Paolo pushing over Paul ALLCOCK (my favourite referee) and saying how we got him for £1.5m and contrasted some of the other transfers that season in comparison.
DiCanio, J Cole , Sinclair , Rio , Lampard .... useful team
Payet for one season is probably the only other player since to match the entertainment we got from DiCanio
