just been thinking about goal celebrations , so thought i would start a thread on goal celebrations , i remember reading about Gylfi Þór Sigurðsson doing the plank celebration after he scored vs Wigan and that sounds like a good one to do , so what are the best and worst goal celebrations you have seen?

For the worst - Balotelli.

Seriously, it's not even like he doesn't celebrate and just quietly high five's his team-mates, he looks smug and reminds me of acting like the over confident, cocky teenager playing as a striker who think's he's Owen in his prime, or Ronaldo or Rooney or something. Pathetic.

I am invested heavily in the Balotelli hype tbf. In the interview last week he said he doesn't get nervous taking penalties because that's his job and he is paid to do it. So along the same lines it makes sense that he doesn't celebrate goals because that's his job, his one skill in life. Especially as he has no affinity to the club or the fans.

Nothing more cringey than seeing Robbie Keane scamper over to a corner to do some amateur acrobatics and shoot the crowd. Should be hung and quartered.

Tony Hibbert's goal celebration is unrivalled . . .

Hard to say which is best, but henry's celebration after scoring against spurs in 2002 (I think) is very memorable and iconic.

Balotelli's 'why only me' was dreadful - what exactly did he mean by it....


After GS died and Bale scored he held his boot up to the camera to reveal an inscription of 'RIP Gary Speed' however it was practically an advert for his boot deal with Adidas. Maybe I'm too cynical.

Rooney swearing at the camera was really cringey.

Any form of JT celebration is uber cringey since the race affair as he always hugs the nearest black player lol.

Too many celebrations are melodramatic like running to the fans only to prevent any contact with them.

[Marshyy]

The best are always celebrations of pure passions and joy.

These two are easily my favourite.

Leon Clarke (SWFC vs Palace, relegation crunch match:2 seasons back):
So Leon goes and scores a goal to put us back in with a chance but then rushes off in celebration and kicks an advertising board and breaks his toe

Love the goal. Really not sure about the celebration though... I mean, yeah, fair enough, great strike... but what is that all about?

[D-Box]

No idea why I like this one so much.

Belletti v Arsenal. 2006. Champions League final winning goal

Just collapses to the floor with his hands over his face in disbelief

Undoubtedly, the best goal celebration I have seen is where Cristiano Lucarelli shags his shirt

Ive always liked Kaka's celebration and the way super pippo goes nuts every time he scores a tap-in.

[Skaterkid]

Yakubu is the only person who comes to mind right now - the thing that he always does with his hands

[Celtic_Anthony]

None of yer planned, synchronised pish. Pure 'get it up yees' emotion.
