3rd goal Friday night

[Tunstall Fred]

Paul Stancliffe once scored a diving header but was an own goal.

Andy Barnsleys was better I reckon,bullet of a header into the top corner

As good as the second was, the third was the best goal of the night. The cross and a superb header. I was right behind Clarke and the skill to almost bend the header in was superb.

,it's a nice argument to be having anyway,even though all you 3rd goalers are wrong,and if Tearyouapart had converted that chance ,there would be no argument surely?

You should have called ‘Mine, Leon’ and notched one yourself, Danny...

Hoping that Lundstram can do the Coutts role, however he will be rusty and a bit behind the pace due to his inconsistent playing time, as shown when he gave the ball away a fair bit. Hopefully a run of games will sharpen him up.

But he can get stuck in.

Let’s hope all Blades have a bit of patience and understanding when he confirms what we all know; that he’s not Paul Coutts.

Every United goal is to be celebrated, but your post set me thinking whether Leon's goal is unique. I cannot remember a goal where a cross comes in low, bounces, and is headed in. Almost impossible to practise in training, and a brilliant improvised finish. My memory is not as good as it used to be, but can anyone point me to a similar finish (United or anyone else?)

I’d have ballooned it into Derby

Keeper set himself too early and Sharp capitalised.. Superb finish.
