Not Olympic standard gymnastics but comforting and familiar like a nice dollop of mashed potatoes. Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler had been getting abuse from Everton fans – unfounded taunts of taking drugs – during the Merseyside derby in April 1999. That’s the celebration. He marked his 100th Premier League goal – for Stoke in a 1-1 draw against Everton in February 2017 – with the robot dance. A celebration so glorious in its simplicity. In August 1996, Fabrizio Ravanelli scored a hat-trick on his Premier League debut as Middlesbrough drew with Liverpool and lifted his shirt over his head. Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho was caught on camera suggesting his striker Samuel Eto’o was 35 instead of 32 – although he claimed he was joking. Not Olympic standard gymnastics but comforting and familiar like a nice dollop of mashed potatoes. Probably because you’re always doing mad stuff, Mario. Remember the Premier League? When Eto’o scored the opener in a 4-0 win over Tottenham in March 2014 – a couple of weeks later – he held the corner flag and his back pretending to be an old man. He marked his 100th Premier League goal - for Stoke in a 1-1 draw against Everton in February 2017 - with the robot dance.

Sadly for Fulham fans the Argentine only needed the mask six times in the Premier League in 2002 and 2003. Later that day after scoring in Manchester United’s 3-0 win over Tottenham, he threw a few punches at the air before collapsing dramatically for his celebration. Mario Balotelli’s bathroom was set alight after a firework was launched in his house in October 2011, two days before the Manchester derby. Remember goals?

It wasn’t great. After Steven Gerrard scored a penalty for Liverpool against Manchester United in a 4-1 win at Old Trafford in March 2009 he kissed the badge and then ran over to a camera near the corner flag before kissing the lens.

Jimmy Bullard ’s dressing-room dressing downAlways the joker in the pack, popular Hull City player Jimmy Bullard, after scoring against Manchester City in December 2009, did a cheeky parody of manager Phil Brown ’s on-pitch half-time team-telling-off from the previous season. A year later when Jimmy Bullard scored to make it 1-1 against the same opposition, Hull’s players sat around Bullard while he pretended to give them a team talk.

In the build-up to the Merseyside derby in October 2012, Everton boss David Moyes heavily criticised Luis Suarez for what he said was a dive to get Jack Rodwell sent off the previous year. After a magnificent – and iconic in its own regard – lob over Sunderland goalkeeper Lionel Perez in December 1996, the Manchester United hero stood nonchalantly puffing his chest out before holding his arms in the air.

He repeated the trick five years later in a 3-0 win at United.

The Hollywood star and a team of journalists explore 400 years of slavery. A celebration so glorious in its simplicity. Another classic. He apologised and was later fined £25,000 and given a suspended two-match ban. Not Temuri Ketsbaia.

Like Ryan Giggs’ FA Cup one against Arsenal - with less chest hair. A celebration so iconic it’s the main thing Temuri Ketsbaia is known for in England. Alan Shearer had to get his shirt back from the crowd so he could finish the game. Not Temuri Ketsbaia.
He did it so many times it is hard to count. Sadly for Fulham fans the Argentine only needed the mask six times in the Premier League in 2002 and 2003. Drawing over projection/ Projection over drawing. He had only ever actually done it twice before – in 2006 England World Cup warm-up games with Hungary and Jamaica. After scoring a last-minute winner for Newcastle against Bolton in January 1998, the Georgian threw his shirt into the crowd and tried to take his boots off before repeatedly kicking the advertising hoardings while shrugging off team-mate Philippe Albert. Later that day after scoring in Manchester United’s 3-0 win over Tottenham, he threw a few punches at the air before collapsing dramatically for his celebration. Brown said afterwards it was a “fantastic celebration”, although Bullard revealed years later his manager told him to “wind his neck in” in the dressing room afterwards.


It’s no exaggeration to say this moment changed the way goals were celebrated in England for a while. Emmanuel Adebayor nearly causes a riotAfter scoring against former club Arsenal for Manchester City in 2009, Adebayor celebrated in a rather incendiary manner – by running the full length of the pitch to the Gunners fans and sliding gleefully to his knees in front of them. Have a look and choose your favourite at the bottom. Like Ryan Giggs’ FA Cup one against Arsenal – with less chest hair.

They’ve done marching bands, fishing trips and a human bicycle – but they really took the wee-wee with ‘the human toilet’. Another classic.

Suarez scored… and proceeded to dive right in front of Moyes to celebrate.
