Bit harsh on Caicedo - he's about a step into their half...
Nayim's goal was well inside the Arsenal half, but quite close to the sideline, so distance-wise probably about the same as from the centre spot.

So both not from the halfway line.

Million pound goal
Doesn't score that and Bournemouth put us down into 12th.
How much is it for each position in the league?
Been a goldmine for us

Wayne Bridge shot and scored from around the halfway line at the Amex, cant recall the opposition.
When was that?!You’re bit thinking about the goal against Barnsley and former Albion keeper Gonzalez are you?! If so, that was almost half the distance - shocking keeping!

I scored from the halfway line once.
Or was it the edge of the penalty box? I can't remember. In the absence of video footage i'm saying half way line. When i've had a few beers, I was deep inside my own half

Steve Sidwell against Bristol City in 2016 too.
I was not much of a Rooney fan but this is the best halfway line goal I’ve seen, absolutely wonderful technique:

Well I'm probably biased but Sidwell's was immense and incredibly underrated.
That wasn't against a goal keeper ridiculously off his line or in yesterday's example an "obvious" thing to do if you find yourself in the correct position after a goalkeeper mistake.
Everybody watch it again on YouTube.
He is running with the ball (not from a standing start) and attempts an impossible chip from the centre circle in normal play. It's one of the greatest Albion goals of all time.
