In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Jamie (@Vault Dweller) get the depressing job of reviewing United's 3-0 loss at Old Trafford to Liverpool. They discuss what went wrong, Casemiro's day to forget, and the pressure now on Erik Ten Hag. They also take some time to give McTominay a proper farewell, and give their overall thoughts on the Summer Transfer Window.
hernandez to himself against chelsea.
Rooney to Van Persie vs Villa.
Viera to Giggs.
Gerrard to Demba Ba.

Berba to Ronaldo is the GOAT assist
First one I always think of is Kaka to Crespo in the Champions League final against Liverpool.

In such style, painful I guess, but Redondo's one to Raul was equally gracefull and more important.
Also another painful thing for this forum it's that Di Maria has tons of very aesthetic ones.
Depends on the criteria, but one of the best for me is Rooney's for DC United against Orlando city.
Maybe, I wonder what the tendency would be? I never liked the Puskas tendency for rockets or chilenas.
Frank de Boer to Bergkamp vs Argentina.
Daley Blind to van Persie vs Spain.
Bergkamp to Ljungberg vs Juventus.

Nani to Rooney against AC Milan 09/10.

That Beckham one for Madrid has to be up there. Had the ball on the touchline about 10 yards inside the opposition half and somehow gave fat Ronaldo a tap-in from there.
EDIT:
EDIT:
Fabregas to Schurle, Benzema backheel in the box to whoever and probably 50 Messi assists
Redondo against United at OT was a goodie…
Cool vid
McClair to Beckham vs Wimbledon.
Blind to Van Persie
Greenwood to Bruno or other way around

De Bruyne to Sane is one of my favorite passes ever.
Pogba has a few absurd ones, notably the whipped deep cross to Giroud (?) after beating a man.
Draxler when he was at Schalke

Cool comp.
Very bad quality the vid, sorry, not exactly my choices, but great assists
Not exactly related to the above vid, but Diego must have been the best crosser ever with any sort of style (chilenas and rabonas included). His ability to send a cross from every angle and put it in the foot or head of any attacker was phenomenal, his precission ans style was a joy to watch
The 0:30 min one it's so Diego with that spin effect

Came in to say this and I will repeat what I always say.
It’s one of the most aesthetically pleasing goal that always pops to my head when it comes to movement, pass and finish. Everything was perfect about it.
Messi to Molina vs The Netherlands WC 2022
Kaka to Crespo UCL final 2005
Redondo to Raul UCL vs Utd

Rooney to RVP. I also like the tevez - Rooney combination when one of them back heeled it to the other and we scored.
The first ones that I’ve thought of have already been mentioned:
Kaka to Crespo, Guti’s backheel to Benzema, Berbatov to Cristiano if you count that turn and not just the assist (as you should), Beckham’s ridiculous cross to… was it Ronaldo?
Laudrup had a few dozens that can end up at the very top, I’d have to rewatch some of them to choose my absolute favourite.

Savicevic assisting Stojkovic against Milan. Tremendous awareness on the turn and just the right amount of weight.
Pele to Carlos Alberto in the 1970 WC Final was the coolest assist I've seen
Scholes’s flick to Rooney against Milan at OT was such a joy to see.
Bruno to Mainoo still fresh in the memory.
Was about to post that,superb assist.
