I think guevera's free kick was nicer. But Dichio's goal was def. beautiful.
Ricketts' second is right up there. Brilliant work to keep the ball from against two defenders and a shot into the roof of the goal...Dichio's was a lovely strike, but Ricketts did extremely well to put that second one in.
Dichio's goal wasnt even the best of the night. It was great and all, but Rickett's second goal tonight was probably the best individual effort/creation/execution of a scoring play in franchise history.
Now to be fair I havent seen the highlights yet, im only going by what I saw at the game. Dichio's goal was a beauty volley into the far side of the net, but Rickett's was just that much more impressive.
Taking nothing away from any of the goals tonight though. Three absolute beauties!!!
Ricketts second was my pick as well.
gotta say how great it was to see three fantastic goals all scored in open play.
It was a very nice goal!
Why is Dichio's goal on MLS.net but Ricketts' arent?
In fact, where are the fucking highlights?
If you go to the quick kicks section, all the highlights are there.
There have been a lot of comments lately along the lines of "we love him, but he'll be gone next year"
I don't think so.
His service to Cunningham was sensational, and the goal was the highest quality strike on the volley.
He was a house, and is a big part of why Ricketts (and sometimes Dunivant) had so much space out there.
Sure he's a great guy, but I think his quality as a human being gets in the way sometimes.
What a player.
(And back on topic, I vote for his goal against the Revs, as the greatest goal ever.)
“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
the Revs goal and this one were very similar, but the Revs was better IMO
His goals are nowhere near this nice.... but there are similarities:

Dichio's goal to end our season last year was pretty special too.
Toronto FC baby...best team everrrrrrrrrr -Jozy
Guevara's freekick, Brennan's blast against Columbus, Rickett's second, Danny's closer against the Revs, 23:13, Danny's low volly...all amazing in their own ways
How nice is it we can actually have a discussion about which player has scored the nicest goal, instead of which player will score at all?
Toronto FC baby...best team everrrrrrrrrr -Jozy
Dichio doesn't get a shitload of chances like Cunny but when he gets an opportunity he drains it. Think of the ball in LA for the first goal of the game (from the Guevara ball).. Think of the one against DC where he fought off the defender and trickled it in.. plus the goal on saturday.
Brennans free kick against Columbus is still the best goal I have seen by a TFC player.
Brennan's goal was a perfectly struck free kick, but I just dont look at goals from set-pieces the same as I look at a goal from play.
A beauty goal from play will always interest me more than a perfectly taken free kick. Just personal preference really but I see more creativity in Ricketts' goal than in Brennan's and in my view, execution is great, but creativity is irreplaceable on the pitch.
