YouTube - Matt Le Tissier Wonder Goal v Newcastle (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=93Wjx8L8-Go)

Pure class from Le God !!

:notworthy Did he ever score an ordinary goal?

Admired him for sticking with the Saints when he could have played for anyone :thumb: Matthew Harding tried his utmost to sign him

Often wondered if he should have gone it would have been nice to have

1 seen his talent's on the bigger stage ie champion's league

2 seen him play in a top team to see if he could have raised his game higher

I guess that's the enigma that was Le tiss we shall never know!!!

He bottled going to a big club and hence did nadda at international level. Nice player to watch and scored great goals but can never be considered a great player.

I beg to differ STI, look at Southampton since he retired, I think it can safely be said that he single-handedly kept them in the Prem:thumb:

There aren't many players you can say that about:wonder:

:Whatever_ So that will mean Man USA then :Whatever_ :p

Well he certainly didn't mean Chelsea :p

just look at the way he dug out the first ball from behind him ... simply stunning goal

The guy was really talented

always wondered too though was it loyalty that kept him with the Saints or a lack of belief in himself that he could cut it at a higher level ???

Tell you what this one aint too shoddy either .. ;)

Do you remember the Lob against Man Utd another peach!!

:Whatever_ So that will mean Man USA then :Whatever_ :p

Any team competing for the league or playing in Europe. Could have tried to move abroad as well. Come on If a player scored some great goals but played for a lesser team now you'd never consider them up there with the best. It's laughable. His England caps prove that managers never considered him anything but a massive luxury player. Love his goal and seems a decent bloke but would you put him up there with the likes of Zola?

i wouldn't even put god himself up with Zola :notworthy

Le Tissier always scored wonder goals against the Toon:rolleyes:

Always thought why go all the way down there jsut to loose, always a bogey ground and St.Mary's was no better.

Anyway 5 GREAT goals, everyone a peach:D:D:D:D

As you may know I'm not Chelsea's biggest fan:lol1: but I'm struggling to find fault with that statement:D

Zola was class ..

Zola was class ..


Couldn't agree more just don't understand why he didn't play more for his country only 35 caps!!

Zola was great but never up in the Bergkamp, Cantona, Henry class.

Don't know about that i think most people would agree that Zola has been the best foreigner to play in the prem !!

Don't talk daft. He played for an average chelski team at the time and although a top player was never in the same class of the ones I mentioned. rose tinted specs here folks.

FWA player of the year 1996 Eric Cantona
FWA player of the year 1997 Gianfranco Zola
FWA player of the year 1998 Dennis Bergkamp

Put's him in the same league in my book !!

Well he certainly didn't mean Chelsea :p

:hjtwofing :D

fair dos. We'll have to disagree although only slightly. I'd put Zola in that second tier with Ginola etc.

As you may know I'm not Chelsea's biggest fan:lol1: but I'm struggling to find fault with that statement:D


:eek: Is the heat getting to you? :D

Anyway 5 GREAT goals, everyone a peach:D:D:D:D
