ICONIC MOMENT

In February 2006, Shearer achieved a lifelong dream

by netting his 201st goal for Newcastle United in a Premier

League game at home to Portsmouth – thereby becoming

his boyhood club’s all-time top scorer, beating the previous

record held by fellow Magpies legendJackie Milburn.

ICONIC MOMENT

Of all the goals that saw Henry win back-to-back European

Golden Shoes between 2003 and 2005, his stunning solo

strike against Liverpool in 2004 stands out. With Arsenal

needing a goal to maintain their invincible record, the France

ace glided through the visitors’ defence before slotting home.

ICONIC MOMENT

There can be no doubting the most infamous moment

of Cantona’s Premier League career: his kung-fu kick on a

Crystal Palace fan that saw him banned for eight months.

His comeback couldn’t have been more perfect though,

firing the side to the1995-96 league title as captain.

ICONIC MOMENT

A serious knee injury in1997-98 meant that Keane

missed most of his first season as Manchester United

captain. He more than made up for it in the following year

though, inspiring his team to an unprecedented treble

of Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League.
