[StanSP]

Vardy for the technique/ability/talent/precision of the finish.

 

Mahrez for the moment of a last-gasp equaliser.

 

Everything else was shite.

[ealingfox]

Vardy should win it.

 

Matic will win it.

[lcfc sheff]

Barnes or Mahrez' for me

[Munshi]

How can it be anything but Vardy?

[AKCJ]

Vardy will win that comfortably.

[Wolfox]

Has to be Vardy…. Any other decision would be a travesty 

[st albans fox]

its a public vote

 

will be rashford or matic

[FOXYTALK]

[demon_dog]

If Vardy doesn’t win I’ll demand another vote, just like Remainers want.

[Edingleyfox]

Vardy surely goal of the season fantastic piece of coordination and skill which left the WBA players in awe.

This. 

[lgfualol]

Already seeing the narrative "hur dur but matic's goal was in the last minute", so what. Skillwise, Vardy scored the best goal and should win easy. 

[ZeGuy]

Vardy's is a contender for the goal of the season. He should get it.

[StanSP]

what's the most amount of goals we've had in a single GOTM competition?

[st albans fox]

YOU’RE ALL MISSING THE POINT

 

THIS IS NOT THE BEST GOAL BUT THE MOST POPULAR BECAUSE ITS A PUBLIC VOTE

 

if MOTD GOTM is still done by pundits then vardy will win it. 

 

Otherwise the big teams will generally win because of sheer numbers 

 

vards is currently popular on the back of his England exploits so he may garner some support there. Would still be very surprised if he outscored Rashford with his winner against Liverpool, given its significance to yanited fans.

Well it’s a foregone conclusion if it’s a public vote, Man Utd have supporters everywhere 

[Arriba Los Zorros]

Barnes by a mile, and I hate the coont. Vardy's is good but not that good, Rashford's is better.

You got that mixed up. Vardy's is the difficult one. Beautiful pass, exquisite connection which technically was maybe the most difficult strike of the lot, and perfect placement.

Barnes', while good, was a bit of a punt. And our scissor kick needs have been satiated by Ronaldo this month

Eh? Vardy's is many times harder to execute than either of the others.
