Bent's infamous beachball strike, Henry's cheeky quick free-kick and Enckelman letting a throw-in roll under his foot... after Smith Rowe smashed past a stricken De Gea at Man United, here are the most bizarre Premier League goals

The Premier League is known around the world for its sheer number of goals, but not all of them can be easy on the eye. In fact, across its glittering history, there are plenty that stand out for all the wrong reasons and remain controversial to this day.

One of them took place in the five-goal thriller between Manchester United and Arsenal this week. While it is not the standout worst, it caused a stir among supporters for just how bonkers it was. However, it was rightly allowed to stand.

Mikel Arteta said he had never seen a strike like it, and Michael Carrick appeared relieved that - after leaving United - he would no longer have to talk about it.
