Monday Night Football declares Top 10 Premier League Goals of the decade

#8) Emre Can vs Watford (2017)

From one goal of the season to another. Back in 2017, Liverpool were not the juggernauts they are today. Their target at the time was a place in the top 4 and their bid was strengthened through Emre Can’s brilliant bicycle kick vs Watford.

Emre Can will probably never score another goal like that in his life and that is alright because the only one time he has, he stole the show. Can himself admitted that he had never scored a better goal than that in his life.

Can ran into the box to meet a high pass from Lucas Leiva, He somehow manged to get his huge body up in the air and managed to hook a ridiculously angled shot beyond the keeper sending everyone in the stadium or watching at home into a frenzy.

#7) Olivier Giroud vs Crystal Palace (2017)

Olivier Giroud is seen by many as a handy striker. He will regularly get you goals every season but there will be nothing too flashy. Just the typical grab and smash stuff. Imagine the surprise on everyone’s face when Giroud scored a goal from a scorpion kick!

To pull off one in itself is an amazing achievement, evidenced by the fact that this is the only one of its kind in this list. The goal came when Giroud used to ply his trade in North London with Arsenal. Strangely enough, the French striker lost out to Andy Carroll’s scissor kick for the goal of the month. However, Giroud had the last laugh in the end as he was awarded the Puskas award instead.
