So, the BBC Sport website has a short video showing "the Premier League's greatest volleys". Somehow and inexplicably, this video manages to omit Kasami's stupendous volley against Palace, but finds room for Rooney, Van Persie, Scholes, Shearer etc etc. What a load of tosh.

You know you support Fulham, right? We are always forgotten.

During Covid the BBC had Ian Wright, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards discussing the best goals in Premiership history. Bearing in mind that John Motson compared Kasami's goal with Marco Van Basten's 1988 goal, Kevin Kilcline said it was the best ever goal in the Premier League and the following day on the BBC lunchtime news the goal was highlighted as one of the best ever, they chose not to even mention Kasami's effort. 

Rather annoying isn't it.

As a goal & the importance of it Dempsey's v Juventus.....the cottage was on fire that night

Always ignored Fulham .

You mean the mis-hit cross ?

I thought the BBC mentioned that great Mullery goal against Leicester in one of their best ever programmes.

For whatever reason the BBC absolutely loathe us with a passion. I can remember the first time I watched Soccer Saturday on Sky and it was by comparison relieving.

Must be because we were owned by Mo

From the names you list, it seems obvious a more accurate description would be 'A Short Video of the Premier League's Greatest Volleys by Well-Known Players'. Hence, Pajtim Kasami's strike isn't included. Heaven forbid that the BBC should take the liberty of shortening the title to something less of a mouthful.

Or perhaps it doesn't matter. No one else is bothered by Kasami's omission - just as none of us give a monkey's that a volley by some long-forgotten Coventry, Derby or Bolton player hasn't been dug out the archives. The BBC don't hate us. The world's not against us. It really doesn't matter.

It's not necessarily the BBC that selects, probably just some individual.

Why this concentration on the BBC as usual? The SKY commentators rarely do us any favours with their commentaries and obviously favour the big boys pus who ever is their flavour of the month. Just get on with supporting the club and forget what these 'experts' say.

[fulhamfan]

it was a chest and volley -  not a pure volley

Of course. But individual employees - whose names are unknown to me - work for the BBC. I can assure you I do not imagine the entire staff of the BBC sports department collaborate on every item shown on MOTD.
