One's that i've actually watched the full 90. Roy Keane vs Juve in the CL. Literally dragged us through that game himself both physically and mentally.

This is the one I was going to post, I think it was the 95/96 season. He'd already been doing it for years, but this was the game that really brought Pete's 'Starfish' saves to the media eye I think.Schmeichel away against Newcastle when we won 1-0 some 23-24 years ago sticks out for me - we could have been 5 goals down by half-time, and a couple of the saves were world-class.
That was an unbelievable performance.Zidane vs Brazil was immense.
https://footballia.net/matches/germany-argentinaTwo for me are:
Fabregas for Arsenal vs Barcelona. Can't remember the score but he was 21/22 and completely carried them to a draw vs the best team in the world
Schweinsteiger vs Argentina in the WC Final. It baffles me that there is no compilation of his individual highlights from this game, absolutely immense
wasnt this the game where he made that insane save from a Barnes' header as well ?This is the one I was going to post, I think it was the 95/96 season. He'd already been doing it for years, but this was the game that really brought Pete's 'Starfish' saves to the media eye I think.
The horrible defending is what sticks out first in my mind. The entire mismatched defense (O'shea, Brown, Heinze & Evra) was a mess and Heinze especially had a shocker. Shat himself as soon as Kaka got the ball.I'm surprised Kaka vs United wasn't mentioned.
We still have nightmares with that shit.Neuer vs Porto was even more insane. By far the most unreal performance by a goalkeeper that I have seen during my lifetime.
It was 83/84Bryan Robson v Barcelona CWC 85/86
What a player he was.Platini vs Utd in 83/84 is incredible
Against Liverpool at OT in 06/07 was an immense Scholes performance. A goal and just bossed the midfield. Against Barca at the Nou Camp in 07/08 exceptional too though people remember his goal in the home game more.What do you guys consider to be Scholes’s best performances?
The two that immediately jump out to me, are his displays in the 6-2 win away to Newcastle in 2003, and the 4-1 win at home to Blackburn in 2007 (I was in the away end for that masterclass from him).
Kasey Keller for the USA vs. Brazil in the 1998 Gold Cup semis was epic. As a Blackburn fan I have to nominate Tim Flowers for his heroic performance against Newcastle on the penultimate day of the 1994/1995 season.
Yes it was, my mistake. We were banned from Europe after Heysal in 85/86.It was 83/84
Probably because hes a massive turd.What a player he was.
Hardly gets mentioned in all time greats. His greatest ever performance was the whole of Euro 1984. 9 goals from midfield.
Thanks. I completely forgot about the Liverpool game in 2006/2007.Against Liverpool at OT in 06/07 was an immense Scholes performance. A goal and just bossed the midfield. Against Barca at the Nou Camp in 07/08 exceptional too though people remember his goal in the home game more.
It's not like Maradona is a great guy and it doesn't seem to hurt him one bit.Probably because hes a massive turd.
