Portsmouth V Everton

For those who do not have the luxuries of cable TV.

Matthew Taylor's cracker of a goal..

45 metre dipping volley, 1st time. Beating one of the best keepers of the game, Tim Howard.

And as per requested by ChinSiah: here is Kanu's goal in the same match.
Not nearly as spectacular, still requires great technique.

Cashley

Arsenal fans will welcome Chelsea fullback Ashley Cole with thousands of fake £20 notes for Sunday's clash at Emirates stadium.

Gunners fans are still angry with Cole, dubbed Cashley, over his summer move to the Blues.

A club source told The Sun: "The whole thing is just a bit of banter but it's had a lot of support from the fans.

"Thousands were dished out at the last home game against Tottenham and the plan is to wave them whenever Cole gets the ball.

"People still think the only reason he joined Chelsea was for more money."

The notes are marked Bank of Russia as a dig at owner Roman Abramovich's millions and are even 'signed' by chief executive Peter Kenyon.

Rabona Galore !!

Anthony would appeciate this the most. The Rabona - crossing the right leg behind the left to strike the ball has been used frequently by Anthony 'The Emperor' Tay do dish out punishment to opposing players in Australia and Singapore (i.e. ChinSiah 10-1)..

Invented by Ascoli striker Giovanni Riccotelli, 'il padre della rabona' (the father of the rabona) in which Pele and Ronaldo (the fake Real Madrid Ronaldo) have since copied to score goals. The great Pele himself said in an interview that he remembered an Italian doing it before him...

Here are a couple of rabonas videos ... Dutch player Dave de Jong scored a rabona goal for VfL Osnabrück (third division) against SpVgg Greuther Fürth (second division) in a German Cup match in August 2005 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WO2qqrI-0DQ

To Pablo Aimar's near miss (if he really meant to shoot from there) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsjMS7d4iY8

And finally when describing the legends of the game.. lets not forget the great Djimi Traoré scoring a rabona own goal and a player called Marko Kecman .. Pele, Maradona and George Best, eat your heart out... here comes Djimi.
