On Second Thought...Pajtim Kasami with a Worldie


It hadn't been a full 24 hours after my Goal of the Week post before Fulham's Pajtim Kasami struck this thundering volley in a winning effort against Crystal Palace.  Not nearly the full team effort that Wilshere's was, Kasami's finish traveled about 60 yards without touching the ground where it found the side netting.  Wilshere immediately took to twitter to concede the title:


I say not so fast.  While today's goal was truly spectacular, there is also something to be said of the finesse and intricate movement that went into the Wilshere goal.  We should still celebrate nonetheless.  Cheers to yet another world class finish.

Goal of the Week: Jack Wilshere vs. Norwich City


Definitely the best team goal scored in the Barclays Premier League this season, Jack Wilshere's finish against Norwich City was truly sublime.  This is what happens when a team in form strings together a series of pinpoint one-touch passes in dangerous areas on the field.  There is very little the Norwich defenders could have done short of fouling Cazorla, Giroud, or Wilshere.  This goal even prompted Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger to claim that it was one of the top 3 goals he has seen in his career with the Gunners.

Here's to this goal and many more like it...
