I'm the hootingest, tootingest shooter in London
Style - 3
Technique - 3 Originality - 5 Don't try it at home - 2 Top marks to Robbie Keane. The Tottenham striker knows he's not blessed with the acrobatic ability of a Julius Aghahowa or Lomana LuaLua. But what he lacks in talent he more than makes up for in imagination. After scoring his goal comes what can only be described as a semi-cartwheel-one-handed-handstand flip, followed by a classic forward roll. But here comes the genius. After getting up off the pitch, the Spurs striker then makes a "gun" with two fingers, like you would do when you're seven in the playground at school. He then starts shooting them in all directions, exactly like that lovable cartoon character Yosemite Sam. And the fans love it. But our Robbie is no one-trick pony. Oh no, he has variations. Like getting down on one knee and firing an imaginary arrow from his imaginary bow during the World Cup in 2002. Expect plenty more if he keeps banging them in for Tottenham this season.
