WHAT a week of goals this has been. There were so many contenders, and so many great goals scored across the continent, but I had to whittle it down to 3, so here they are.

As always, please vote up the one you like most, and if there is a super sexy goal you think I missed, please mention it!

Special mentions go to:

HOWTON (Norwich) vs Manchester City -- fantastic run from the half-way line, and cool finish
VLAAR (Aston Villa) vs Wigan Athletic -- lovely first touch to set himself up for a spinning volley
GAMA (Deportivo la Coruna) vs Espanyol -- sexy shot across goal into top corner
GOMEZ (Athletic Bilbao) vs Real Zaragoza -- lovely skill by winger to set up a Gomez exquisite backheel
KIESSLING (Bayer Leverkusen) vs Hamburg -- perfect skill to curl the ball round the keeper at pace
ROBBEN (Bayern Munich) vs Borrusia Monchengladbach -- sexy volley to beat the keeper at near post
DRAXLER (Schalke 04) vs SC Freiburg -- precision shot across goal into bottom corner
DE BRUYNE (Werder Bremen) vs FC Nuremburg -- simply awesome, controlled chip over goalkeeper
BELFODIL (Parma) vs Palermo -- rocket of a shot straight past the keeper at the near side
DI NATALE (Udinese) vs Internazionale -- fantastic distance shot curled into top corner across the goal

(I told you there were a lot of great goals!)

#1: GOBBI (Parma) vs Palermo

What can you say other than: WHAT A GOAL!!!

#2: RIBERY (Bayern Munich) vs Borussia Monchengladbach

Again... what can one say except: WHAT A GOAL!!!

#3: BALE (Tottenham Hotspur) vs Sunderland

I hate to sound like a broken record, but... WHAT A GOAL!!!

What a volley by Ribery! What a shot by Bale!

Ribery

Ribery

Rib man.

My favourite goal was Newcastle's equalizer against Ars... oh.

^ -1

Gobbi

Sir Franck takes it for me

Kaiser Franck.

Ribery's, without doubt. The two others were fabulous as well though.

2 Amazing free-kicks in 1 week, it looks like Lyon has found the new Juninho :) : Clement Grenier
Arsene Wenger already looking to sign him.

Let's bring this back!

From yesterday's champions league, these were my favourites

1) Yaya Toure against Plzen

2) Simon Rolfes vs United

3) Vladmir Weiss vs PSG

Weiss is a product of our youth academy.

If we also add non-CL goals:

What a blooter. My favorite part is when the keeper falls back like he just got shot.

^ where was this goal?

^Turkish league, and the guy who scored it is a defender.

My vote goes to Weiss =)
