Allessandro Del Piero Celebrating

Here a list of the top 10 players whose goal celebrations dont quite live up to their footballing talent.

1:  Alan Shearer Nazi Salute- The all time Premier League goal scorer could have done better in my opinion than running round celebrating  by raising his right hand with palm open

2:  Robbie Keane Shit Roll- Good premier league player and scores lots of goals, it just makes everyone cringe so much when he does his little roll and then shoots a pretend bow from a pretend arrow.

3:  Alessandro Del Piero Clown face- What a player and what ability. The world famous Italian get so excited when he scores he has to run around and pull his tongue out at the crowd like a child.

4:  Robert Pires Finger arrogance- Robert was in his peak at Arsenal and i think thats where clebration started. The raised finger in the air suggests many things but i think he could have done loads better

5:  Robbie Fowler Coke Head- Remember Robbie in his prime,  has England ever had a finisher with more potential. Will be remembered for famous goal celebration when decided to snort the chalk from the pitch against Everton.

6:  Craig Bellamy Golf  Swing- The controversaill striker celebrated his goal against Barcelona by pretending to swing a golf club. Yes this was just days after he beat team mate John Arne Riise up with one!!!

7:  Paolo Di Canio Nazi Salute- Whereas Shearers was unintentional, unfortunatley Paolo’s was not. Back in 2006 whilst playing for Lazio, Paolo Di Canio made a made a fascist salute to the Ultra right-wing fans

8:  Deigo Forlan topless problems- When Diego scored for former club Manchester United back in 2002, He got so excited that he took off his top and ran around the pitch bar chested only to find he could not get his top back on. The referee had to pause play and ordered Forlán off the pitch to get changed

9:  Tim Cahill Coner Flag Box- The late arriving midfielder is not as effective at celebrating as he is heading. The Everton star runs to the corner flag and Box’s the top of the flag. On occasion may be ok but everytime does get abit boring Tim.

10:  Nicolas Anelka butterfly- Possibly the most effortless of the top 10, Nicolas does not even change facial expression as he jogs off making a butterfly with his hands. The player will not reveal why he does this however which adds mystery to this

Roger Milla at Italia 90

Quite often players get carried away when they score. Allot of the time its because there not that good however there obviously very good at celebrating the goal. Who are they?

1:  Julius Agahowa- Has been around since the early 90’s and once played for a team called ‘Insurance’ ! Has not even notched up 150 career games yet but amazing at celebrating. Up to 7 consecutive backflips for this boy!!!

2:  Roger Milla Corner Flag Sex Dance- Took the world by storm at Italia 90 with his trademark dance around the corner flags. Not a bad player however and good professional to his native Cameroon so does not take top spot.

3:  Bas Savage Moonwalk- The Brighton & Hove Albion player does a wicked moonwalk and sometimes adds abit of rotation to this. Get a move to the Premier League Bas and show them how its done.

4:  Brad Freidel Crazy Goalie- The former Blackburn stopper went wild when he scored the equaliser in the last minute against Charlton, only for them to go up the other end and lob him as he was out of breath

5:  John O’ Shea Terror Attack- Once celebrated with team mates by kneeling down and pretending to fire a bazooka at Chelsea fans. I like it John, keep the creativity flowing

6:  Peter Crouch Robot Dance- Im not sure if hes better at football or dancing but everyone remembers the robot dance. Most cringey celebrating on the list from the beanpole striker

7:  Jurgen Klinsmann Front Dive- Quality at football but how good was the famous celebration. Kids accross europe braved to replecate this celebration on the concrete school playgrounds

8:  Shefki Kuqi Belly Flop- Based on the Klinsmann but with an aggressive run and leap upwards. A giant to other, big Shefki brought smiles to fans who thought he was not much of a player

9: Nani- The young Manchester United midfielder does a cartwheel and a backward summersault. Would be better in the Olympics rather than playing for Manchester United.

10: Robert Earnshaw - Not in this list because celebration is that good. Need i say any more. Front flip and a gesture from the welsh forward.

The dentists chair

There are some players for one reason or another that just ooze class and could celebrate however they wanted and we would still love them. Here they are

1:  Eric Cantona Chest Pout- When King Eric scored he sometimes simply stood there, hands on hips and looked into the crowd whilst sticking his chest out. A man of great class.

2:  Zinedine Zidane Natural Great- Zinedine often scored amazing goals or really important ones but more often than not would simply run back to his own half or applaud team mates, great leader by example.

3:  Raul The Ring Kisser- The Prince of Real Madrid has done it for years. Such a respected player worldwide makes such a simple celebration cool. Sit down Frank Lampard

4:  Thierry Henry Aeroplane- Probbably the most simple of celebrations see’s Thiery gently jogging away from goal with his arms outstretched but not moving. This fits in well with his style of play and slick image.

5:  Ronaldinhio Samba Dance- Great footwork in all aspects of the beautifull game from Ronaldinhio. Often over the top with his goal celebrations but then again there has never been a player more gifted with his feet so why not.

6:  Fabrizio Ravanelli Shirt on head move- The silver fox thrilled crowds with his simple but really effective trick of pulling his shirt up to cover his head and then running round to celebrate.

7:  Paul Gascoigne Dentists Chair- Everyone remembers this one from Euro 96. Probbably a rehearsed act by the England boys as they help Gazza relive the infamous dentist chair incident !!

8:  Gabrielle Batistuta Gunman- The South American striker was a big hit with fans for his popular machine gun celebrations. The striker knelt down on one knee and machine gunned the crowd with his arms. I dont know if  the popularity of it  shows how good a player he was or says something about South American people

9:  The Real Ronaldo finger wag- This player is surely one of the best strikers the world has ever seen and i think he could get away with anything. I quite like the way he runs off at pace though wagging 1 finger, i think it looks good. This puts The Robert Pires Finger to shame

10:  Marco Tardelli screaming maniac- This is my favourite. Although i did not see it, it is well known that in 1982 when Marco Tardelli scored in the World Cup Final, he was so overcome with emotion that he felt the need to runn off in a rage screaming his own name like a mad child in celebration.
