No order.

Big Bob volleying in his 3rd against Coventry in Dec 77.
Andy King against the rs Oct 78
Kevin Richardson (wrist in a cast) smashing in the second in the milk cup semi final first leg against Villa 84.
Sheedy's twice taken free kick against Ipswich in the cup 85.
Tricky's cool finish against Bayern Munich 85.
Beardsley's last minute winner against the rs 91/92.

All you young fellas have mentioned all the good ones since then
 
Barry Horne's belter against Wimbledon on the last day of the season. One of the most important goals ever scored by an Everton player, and a friggin beauty too.
 
Top of the list for me just has to be THAT Graham Stuart goal against Wimbledon that assured our top flight status (please god let's not go back to them days!)
Osman vs Larissa maybe my favourite quality goal.
Beardsley scoring against his old team in the derby was good, Cottee diving header when we beat Notts F 4-0, Rooney vs Arsenal, and the Ferguson header(s) vs Man Utd.
 
Difficult one to answer, because so many goals have different emotions and circumstances attached to them. So, in no particular order here is my top 3:

1. Sheedy vs Leicester Dec 86, deft edge of box curling chip. I was right behind it and have never seen a more technically brilliant strike by an Everton player.
2. Rooney vs Arsenal Oct 2002. If you were there you'll remember the roar that greeted that goal.
3. Ferguson vs Bolton Boxing Day 97, headed goal to complete a hat-trick. St End was seriously mental that evening.

As Big Nev would say, though, truly the best Everton goal is the next one.
 
The one stand out for me apart from the last day relegation dogfights (too many nerves to every enjoy them) was:

Duncan Ferguson smashing one in off the underside of the bar against Norwich in the 95 cup run.

We were all over them and that just said it all for me. I was in the lwer gwladys that day with a couple of mates, my dad and brother and it was just brilliant from start to finish.
 
I only heard it on the radio and saw it later, but Andy King's goal against them was special for me.

I've read every post and I've kept thinking, 'how could I leave that one out', but I'll stick with Andy King's.
