A goal is always made sweeter when it’s against one of your biggest rivals and when it is the goal that effectively wins you the title against them, it makes it even more sweeter. Joe Cole’s fine goal against Manchester United in 2006 ticked all those boxes.

Picking the ball up with four or five defenders around him, it was his smart thinking, pure ability and unyielding confidence that allowed him to knock the ball past them, breakthrough on the goal and smash a brilliant finish past Edwin Van Der Sar.
