I have to disagree with you there. Rivaldo, Zidane and Figo do that week in week out, whilst Beckham hardly scores wonder goals every time.

It was against Blackburn wasn't it?
Will have to watch the rerun on Wednesday courtesy of FSW, didn't get to see it on Saturday. But from how the commentators etc. have been raving on about it, it sounds pretty special.

Right they all score 40 wondergoals a season.

By the way Figo who is playing a poor season (by his standards) has scored 2 goals this season from open play so far.
Don`t get me wrong they all 3 worldclass players. But there is no need to overhype them and to say they are magnificent week in week out. I`ve watched Barca-Real yesterday and none of them was really outstanding.</strong><hr></blockquote>
Barça-Madrid matches are overly hyped anyway and always end up being a bore. The standards are set too high, too much pressure is put on the players. In Marca they start a good week before previewing the match, bringing up every fact and anecdote possible on the match. Zidane scored a blinder against Deportivo, turned the defence round on its head. Rivaldo has scored some very decent bicycle kicks including the winning goal on the last day of the season against Valencia . He also did this assist/goal (it was really his goal) against depor this season. Controlled the ball in mid air, put it over the defenders head, then the goalies and then a player came in the second post and put it in. If you havent seen that bit of skill, i seriously advise that you do because it left me amazed. To say that Zidane, Figo and Zidane dont score blinders is stupid, because they do. If they didnt they wouldnt be considered the best players in the world would they?? Im not taking anything away from becks' goal because i thought it was a wonderful piece of skill, but just because becks scores a beautiful goal it doesnt mean that other players cant.

Boddingtons will officially be City's new shirt sponsor next season in the Prem.
Expect much jumping up and down and banners from the bluenoses proclaiming "City - the Cream of Manchester" etc...etc...
by the way, from next season OT's official in-house beer will be Budweiser.

Watch Beckham he`ll score wonder goals every week now!!!!</strong><hr></blockquote>
Of course players cant score wonder goals week in week out, if not wondergoals would lose their value wouldnt they?? I just fail to see any point in this argument. All these players mentioned have scoree wonder goals, so whats the problem??

I also think that Becks goal was more difficult than Pires'. The thing is Becks hit it first time, without even controling the ball first.
