Twenty years ago this month.
Here are the BBC's Goal of the Month contenders from October 2006.
Those were, if I may say so, the days.

On Arsene Wenger’s birthday, a reminder of his epic battles with his arch-nemesis.
We’re not talking about Sir Alex. We’re not talking about Jose. We’re talking about that bastard zip on his big winter coat...

City have been found guilty of industrial level cheating by their sportswashing owners.
It will likely have catastrophic impacts on the Premier League and football in this country for an entire generation.
But I guess it’s all a big laugh.

This is sportswashing in action. Just ignoring the fact they've been found to have cheated for a decade and pretending everything is normal. Disgusting
Eclectic Football Interest retweeted
In no other scenario would a team be platformed like this after being found guilty of arguably the most highly orchestrated cheating scandal in sporting history.
You might call it an elephant in the room. This is actually 114 of them. They bring a few bananas, win a few games & MOTD talk like this? Shambolic.
The BBC's purpose is to ‘provide impartial, high-quality & distinctive output & services which inform & educate’. Is this anything resembling that? (No)
When we say sportswashing, this is it right here.

"Let’s park the off-field matters for a moment".
Herein lies the problem.
It’s looks ominous for the rest of the Premier League if Manchester City continue at this pace. That said, it’s so early into the season that it would be foolish to think it’s wrapped up already.
Let’s park the off-field matters for a moment and focus on whether any opponent is capable of keeping up.
Arsenal certainly have the strength in depth and Chelsea are beginning to look like a force. Liverpool clearly need time, as was highlighted in the defeat to Manchester City last week.
But while seven wins out of seven games is a blistering start, it’s still a very small sample size and there’s still so much to go through. Liverpool won the first five games last season as champions and look what followed.
