We take a look back at some of the best Premier League overhead kicks after Andy Carroll's brilliant effort against Crystal Palace

Following Andy Carroll's brilliant strike against Crystal Palace the Monday Night Football looked back through the Premier League archives to find the best overhead kicks.

Jamie Carragher was joined by Thierry Henry on a special edition of Monday Night Football and the duo picked their favourite overhead kicks from the Premier League era.

Carragher had no hesitation in plumping for Carroll's super strike in West Ham's 3-0 win over Crystal Palace at the weekend.

When asked whether we hadd seen the goal of the season from Carroll on Saturday, Carragher said: "I'm thinking of Dimitri Payet's goal, the strikes from Olivier Giroud and Henrikh Mkhitaryan but I would go with Andy Carroll.

"I did think it was Giroud's goal against Crystal Palace but now I'm going for Carroll."

Henry found the decision much harder, choosing Wayne Rooney's brilliant goal from the 2011 Manchester derby at Old Trafford.
