Oleksandr Zinchenko's acrobatic volley against Burnley is in contention for the Premier League's Goal of the Month for November.
The Ukrainian defender netted his second goal for the club in style as he scissor-kicked the ball into the Clarets net during our 3-1 triumph, and is on the ballot for supporters to pick their best strike across the league during the past month.
Alex's moment arrived in the 74th minute of the game at Emirates Stadium with us leading 2-1 and looking to seal the win.
Leandro Trossard whipped a corner into the box which fellow goalscorer William Saliba headed onto the crossbar, and then after the defence nudged the ball away from their goalline, our left-back managed to get his feet in the right position to somehow hook the ball back over a crowd of bodies and past James Trafford to score in style.
That secured his spot on the eight-player shortlist, which also includes Manchester United's Alejandro Garnacho for his overhead kick against Everton, and solo efforts from Brighton's Simon Adringra and Michael Olise of Crystal Palace.
Mohammed Kudus's own scissor kick for West Ham United at Brentford is also included, as is Cameron Archer's thunderbolt to secure Sheffield United's first win of the season against Wolves, while their own Pablo Sarabia gets a nod for his late winner against Tottenham Hotspur. Raheem Sterling's free-kick against Newcastle United makes up the top eight.
You can vote for Alex from now until midday on Monday, December 4.
