(that didn't involve winning a trophy)
1) Sharpe's backheel against Barcelona 1994. Just brilliant.
2) Rooney's volley against Newcastle. A real WTF, Sky + moment
3) Evra's goal against Bayern. For a fleeting moment i thought we'd do it!
4) Andy Cole's 5 goals against Ipswich. People were beginning to doubt him but that 5 goal blast was amazing
5) Roma 7-1. Carrick's big night.
What were yours?

Brilliant Post!
- Robbo turning a 2-0 deficit vs Barcelona to a 3-2 agg win in 1984
- Solksjaer scoring a last minute winner vs L'pool in the FA Cup in 1999 (which got overshadowed by what he did vs the Germans later that year!)
- Comeback vs Spurs, when 3-0 down at half-time to win 5-3!
- Giggs's goal vs Arsenal. How could it not be there?
- Michael Owen's 4-3 winner vs City, when they'd equalised in injury time, only for us to score again!

How about LVG simulation of a dive in front a ref. during the match vs Arsenal?
Wasn't that one heck of a moment?

Ole's 4 against Notts Forest. As I recall, Yorke and Cole were both on 2 goals each and I was wondering who would get the hatrick first, then Ole came on and blew them both away.

I've tried to go for some other favourite moments that I remember fondly other than the ones that have been listed previously.
Strachan goal v Arsenal in Jan 1987. Nothing particulary special apart the game itself but it was the first goal I saw at OT
In the same year Peter Davenport scoring a last minute goal to beat Liverpool.
Mark Hughes' equaliser v Palace in 1990 Cup Final. I was 12 and I think I would have cried had we lost that game!
The 3-2 Juventus game in Autumn 1997. The game, IMO, where we started to believe we could compete against the real big boys in Europe.
Paul Scholes v Barca in 2008.

4-2 win against arsenal. Ronaldo brace and a cheeky lob from o'shea.
Solskjaer's winner vs Liverpool in fa cup at home in last minute in 99. I seriously lost my sh111t and ended up in row infront and fell on my face.
Roma at home. What a night. The Stretford end was rocking until it became a procession.
