Even the Guardian's alternative 20 goals doesn't include Wilshere's. Farce.

That Chuks Aneke goal was brilliant. We should have kept him, you wont see Sanogo doing that.
No Wilshere? It's an anti-Arsenal conspiracy I tells ya!
Honestly, that is such bullshit.
I liked Wilshere's goal the most, but with team-goals it is usually not fair to give an award to a single player. Giroud was instrumental in that goal, so what now, should the prize be given to Wilshere and Giroud? Should Cazorla also be included?
Good point Herbas, but eh- just make 'em joint winners.
Doesn't need to go that far and I'm sure footballers aren't that petty. Wilshere put the ball into the back of the net, so it's his goal and how it's identified but the goal itself winning 'goal of the year' will see Giroud just as pleased as Wilshere, I'm sure.
Team goals have been nominated in previous years, so that's obviously not a problem. This is an award to celebrate goals not players.
...and Wilshere's goal was obviously among the best ones.
*the best one.
Oh, I agree! I just wouldn't want to make the assumption that other, non-Arsenal fans, would have given it the most votes though. I'd have settled for a nomination and letting the chips fall where they may.
Some decent ones from the kids here. Bigger keepers will save some of those, but that's just being picky. Love the footwork for the last one.

Wow, those keepers were really shit the last one didn't even move, probably thinking of his mum giving him a ride home so he could play on his playstation.
Stupid kids. 😆
FIFA Goal of the Year is now between Rodriguez, Van Persie and........ Roche. 🙂 http://m.fifa.com/ballon-dor/puskas-award/index.html
Decent.

Could just give the award to the team instead of the player who socked it in, of course.
I was always of the opinion that goals could be divided into 3 types.
1.The well worked team goal.
The individual skilful goal.
The screaming thunderbastard goal.
A separate award for each would seem appropriate.
