Good enough to deserve a thread of its own. That first touch that wrong-footed the nearest defender and created the space, combined with the inch-perfect finish with his 'wrong' foot, absolutely sublime.

Buckley's goal yesterday - absolute class!

He did a 'Ronaldo chop' to cut inside the defender didn't he?

He did indeed. When he pulls stuff like that off he really is a joy to watch.
Yep, it was brilliant. Made me think I hope he's got his mojo back, as he's great when he's on form.

Fantastic on the extended highlights on Seagulls Player.

He loves that particular skill, but I think that's the first time it's directly led to a goal. Looked superb from the angle behind the goal.
Great to see him off the mark.

Brilliant goal , went absolutely mental when that hit the net. Was in the north yesterday as swapped with a mate. Nice change from wsu. Glad Buckley did that , he was starting to get a bit of flack on here. Looks better every time is I see it which is about 7 times so far

Hopefully that'll give him the confidence boost to crack on for the rest of the season.
This. You can tell he's been practicing it, was very slick and not only beats the defender but gets the ball out of his feet, ready for a shot. Classy.

Looked very similar the trick that Orlandi pulled against Millwall that got their defender his 2nd yellow. Maybe they've been practising it in training.

Looked much more like his old self yesterday. Great that Oscar was positive and started both him and Kazenga.
Agree with this . Garcia very positive . Poyet talked a positive game but in practice wasn't always that way. Garcia talks less but actions speak louder than words .
Yes, well said.

To be fair, he didn't have much choice to start with them both. Great to be so positive at home whether it's was enforced or not though.

I love the Buckles and rejoice wholeheartedly when he strokes in a net-bulger. Few others have his touch in our squad and his crosses tend to be always potentially dangerous, which pretty much no one else in our side has the pace and control over. If i was in the starting 11 in the corner of my eyes i'd always keep an eye on a breakthrough run by the Buckles as so often he bends and breaks the back line and then turns to see no one spotted what he was up to. Let's keep him happy and utilise the threat that's in his gliding boots of deception and skill.
Not as good as the one against Blackpool last season ?
