Top five solo Premier League goals

By , Features Editor
Sports Mole picks out five of the best individual goals that have been scored in the Premier League era.

Ravel Morrison's goal during West Ham United's 3-0 win away at Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon has captured the imagination.

The former Manchester United trainee collected the ball on the halfway line, before using his pace and balance to beat the home defence. From there, he was able to lift the ball over an advancing Hugo Lloris and into the net.

Below, Sports Mole has picked out five other goals from the Premier League era that we believe match up to Morrison's effort.

Georgi Kinkladze - Manchester City vs. Southampton, 1996

Thierry Henry - Arsenal vs. Tottenham Hotspur, 2002

Ruud van Nistelrooy - Manchester United vs. Fulham, 2003

Hatem Ben Arfa - Newcastle United vs. Bolton Wanderers, 2012

Gareth Bale - Norwich City vs. Tottenham Hotspur, 2013
