On last night's Monday Night Football, Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville played the "of the decade" game. They both picked their Premier League team of the decade. Frankly, they agreed on far too much and it was all a bit boring. Both pundits shared nine picks for their teams with Carragher going for Gareth Bale and N'Golo Kante over Neville's Harry Kane and Luis Suarez.
Perhaps a more interesting topic was the subject of goal of the decade. It's easy to have forgotten a number of these but the compilation is as enjoyable a three minutes as you'll spend today.

Goals for the Monday Night Football Premier League Goal of the Decade:
1. Wayne Rooney - Manchester United vs Manchester City, 2011
2. Peter Crouch - Stoke City vs Manchester City, 2012
3. Papiss Cisse - Newcastle United vs Wigan Athletic, 2012
4. Robin Van Persie - Manchester United vs Aston Villa, 2013
5. Jack Wilshere - Arsenal vs Norwich City, 2013
6. Pajtim Kasami - Fulham vs Crystal Palace, 2013
7. Olivier Giroud - Arsenal vs Crystal Palace, 2017
8. Emre Can - Liverpool vs Watford, 2017
9. Andros Townsend - Crystal Palace vs Manchester City, 2018
10.. Vincent Kompany - Manchester City vs Chelsea, 2019
Gary Neville picked the Olivier Giroud goal for Arsenal as unique, while Carragher went for Peter Crouch. All ten have a serious claim to the throne. We are left wondering why there were no great goals between 2014 and 2016 though.
Have they missed out on any? Who would you choose as your favourite?
