Pilchards Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 I saw that Che loves scoring against his old club Sheff Utd and it got me thinking on what players ex or not who loves scoring against us. I give you Son from Tottenham, he always bloody steps up and gets one or two every time. Anyone else you can recall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cat Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Ian Wright scored about 20% of his career goals against us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkish Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Any player out of form used to be guaranteed to score against us. Even two of the greatest foreign players to ever play in England, Henry and Bergkamp, were shite until they played us and both got their first goals in England. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember that Bergkamp strike which was right footed in the top right corner from 25 yards out. He couldn’t hit Jack Schitt before that.

I’m sure Henry turned that great centre back Marco Almenia for one of his goals and ended the legends career at the Dell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusic Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Aside from Bergman, I think Martian at Man Utd seems to have a decent record against us, like a few Utd strikers. Giraldo at Chelsea, formerly of Arsenal is another. Also feel like Richardson at Everton is developing into one of them as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Give it to Ron Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Che to get a scuffer with his left foot against City like his last one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchards Posted 7 March, 2021 Author Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Sterling not scored against Manchester Utd in 22 games. He scuffed two chances tonight, it’s weird how you struggle against certain teams. I hear that Danny Ings loves scoring against Pompey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint1977 Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Beattie loved scoring against Spurs once Hoddle joined them as manager, not least the 3-1 win at WHL which sealed Hoddle’s departure. MLT always seemed to score stunners V Villa and Newcastle. Man U suffered quite a bit from him at the Dell as well and Liverpool. Ian Wright as someone said, can remember a hat trick in about 5 minutes at Highbury which formed a Nike advert and one at the Dell under Alan Ball. Kane has scored loads against Saints but also done his hammy last season. Fowler for Liverpool used to score quite a few and then for City. Ian Rush going further back but scored for fun against everyone in the early-mid 80s. Gary Speed was another one as a midfielder, for Leeds, Newcastle and even one in 2008 at the infamous final day win v Sheffield Utd to stay up.

sibster Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Games v Chelsea should start 0-1 When Giroud is playing for them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saints foreva Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Austin has a great record against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nta786 Posted 7 March, 2021 Share Posted 7 March, 2021 Lukaku it felt like would always net against us but he is gone. I think Austin had a good record against Arsenal. Salah has a great record vs us too I think. I don’t know why it always seems like we let tall target men type players, the ones who look poor in any other game but dominate our CBs that get their goals against us- I’m talking Benteke, Carroll, Haller, Giroud, Ibra, Cavani, Lukaku, Mitrovic etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midfield_General Posted 11 March, 2021 Share Posted 11 March, 2021 (edited) Jamie Scowcroft Cameron Jerome Ronnie fucking Rosenthal All shite.

Nordic Saint Posted 11 March, 2021 Share Posted 11 March, 2021 (edited) Goals v Saints: Giroud 8 Kane 8 Son 8 Lukaku 7 van Persie 7 We always seem to have problems with big, old style centre forwards, who can head the ball in at the near post Ron Davies v Man United. He scored 4 in one game at Old Trafford Edited 11 March, 2021 by Nordic Saint 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long before he joined Spurs, Son had a trial with Portsmouth but they relected him. He obviously wasn't their level of player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Posted 12 March, 2021 Share Posted 12 March, 2021 Frank Worthington was a bit of a nemesis in the 1970’s. On joining us though in 1983 he went on a bit of a goal drought. Thought it a shame Lawrie didn’t sign him earlier though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
