Title: 'TON'gue in Cheek
Release Date: 19 Mar 2001
Player: Henrik Larsson
Synopsis
A celebration of Swedish international Henrik Larsson's first 100 goals for his club Celtic. His arrival at Celtic Park in 1997 turned the club's fortunes around and helped Celtic become a formidable team in the Scottish Premiership, taking the title from arch rivals Ranger's grasp in 1999. Larsson's goals put Celtic back on course for another Premiership success, under new manager Martin O'Neill and with the help of new signing Chris Sutton from Chelsea, making Larsson the new hero at Celtic Park.
Review by kevtic (March 20th 2014)
It’s listed as 100 Great Larsson goals but I think they are over egging it a bit. It’s a 100 Larsson Celtic goals. Some are great, some not so great but watching Larsson scoring goals is not really time wasted. As far as I can work out this is probably Larrson’s first 100 goals for Celtic up to February 2001 in MON’s treble season. I kept a running total as I was watching and of the 100 goals 58 were scored with his right foot, 15 with his left and an incredible 27 with his head.
One thing the current Celtic team lacks is someone who can score with their head. Larsson just seemed to have the ability to make himself invisible in the box and suddenly appear to score. Also 15 of his goals scored with his right were penalties. Heaping praise on Henrik are Martin O’Neill, Tom Boyd, Johan Mjallby, and Paul Lambert who discuss the striker after every 10 goals are shown.
I do have a couple of gripes about the DVD though. Why not put the goals in chronological order, I don’t see why they have to be mixed up. Also could they not add captions telling you where and when each match shown was played and the final score so we get a bit of context? This is a recurring bug bear for me when watching DVDs that contain a lot of match footage.
