The look on Youssouf Mulumbu’s face sums it up nicely: Wayne Routledge, take bow son.

Seriously, we can’t stop watching the Swansea winger’s wild, instinctive, perfectly-executed volley against West Brom yesterday.

Go on, have another butcher’s at it – you won’t regret it…

Phenomenal technique and the little heel click at the end just makes it.

Not a true volley in the technical sense, we know – but that thing DID NOT sit up invitingly for him! It was at nipple-height for crying out loud!

Pure brilliance.

Guess this is the point where we add the obligatory “if Player X had done that, we’d be crowing about it for weeks” comment.
