He did score a few as an emergency striker...a double against Everton (I think) one of which where he turned on a six-pence. Useful player. Yeah, I think it was in all competitions. Remember him being a utility player not just because of his height but due to his mobility for a centre back.

lcfcben76 Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 Well, never thought I'd see this thread title on here

The goals are on YouTube, but he didn't do a turn...it was a placed finish. Jawdropping for a big lad.
JerryLundegaard Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 Best goal by a defender - has to be Gary Coatsworth.
Koke Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 I hate the "if X player did it it'd be lauded" talk but I will say it, if Pogba put in an exquisite ball on a plate to Smalling with his outside boot there'd be a week long wankfest over it. Albrighton is just a boring player.

Also, he certainly scored a few more than Heskey one season or maybe even two under O'Neill.

foxile5 Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 Simon Grayson's looping header against Wimbledon!!!

Ted Maul Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 I think a lot of my favourite City goals are scored by defenders- they've scored some massive goals for us in the last 25 years! Walsh v Derby Walsh v Arsenal Grayson v Wimbledon Elliott v Villa Elliott v Tranmere Huth v Tottenham Huth v Man City Morgan v Southampton Morgan v Sevilla

Jonno84 Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 Nice to see Huth back on form.but I don't think its spectacular enought for goal of the month.fairly bog standard header...its not really a goal that sticks in my mind I've seen many like it.
fuchsntf Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 Some good goals, some good memories...But this is about Huth n Shakespeare this last month... wouldnt most of the best-goals-posts be better suited put to another topic....

davieG Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 The Merc obviously saw this thread Six Memorable Goals By LCFC Defenders http://www.lcfc.com/news/article/2016-17/six-memorable-defenders-strikes-3641175.aspx
Ted Maul Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 When the goal first went in, I just thought 'that's dreadful marking, how has Huth got so much space?!', but the whole routine is sublime- particularly Albrighton's cross with the outside of the boot. The threat of Albrighton shooting is probably what drew defenders out and gave Huth so much space to attack the cross- he had to hit it first time before he got closed down, and he really didn't have much room to get it over the defenders- needed the extra flight on it. I watched one of those 'vlogs' from a West Ham fan and he got it on film- straight away said 'that's incredible, probably the best worked free-kick I've ever seen'.
Guest CityFan 06 Posted 24 March 2017 Posted 24 March 2017 Certainly deserves to be in the nominations, nicely worked goal.
