  • Dries Mertens produces tidy finish and he couldn’t be angrier

    Dries Mertens produces tidy finish and he couldn’t be angrier

    Apparently, nothing gets Dries Mertens’ back up more than his picking a spot and tucking away a decent finish.

    Mertens appeared to throw a hissy-fit when congratulated by team mates after scoring Napoli’s 2nd goal against Palermo.

    Presuambly, had Mertens scored a brace, one of his team mates would have been sent tumbling to the canvas via a right hook. Don’t ask what he does if he scores a hat-trick.

  • “Hey Jozy, f*ck you!!” Toronto FC’s striker gets an ear full

    “Hey Jozy, f*ck you!!” Toronto FC’s striker gets an ear full

    Former Sunderland flop Jozy Altidore was given some words of encouragement during his sides playoff defeat to Montreal in the game coined the ‘Canadian derby’. The words came from a Montreal heckler in the stadium which can clearly be heard on TV, telling Altidore that he “sucked in England” before climaxing with a tried and tested “F*ck you Jozy”.

    The words did little to inspire much of a reaction from the Altidore, as Toronto were comfortably knocked out of their first ever MLS play off 3-0.

    For Montreal and their potty mouthed heckler, they go on to face New York Red Bulls in the conference semi-finals.

  • Melbourne City stringing together a lovely flowing team goal

    Melbourne City stringing together a lovely flowing team goal

    Shades – albeit light ones at that – of Barcelona here from Melbourne City during their A-League clash with the Newcastle Jets.

    Unfortunately all that slick passing and moving was not enough as Melbourne lost the game 3-2.

  • Selcuk Inan’s gorgeous top corner free kick for Galatasaray

    Selcuk Inan’s gorgeous top corner free kick for Galatasaray

    You can firmly file this free kick under Ooooff. Galatasaray’s Selçuk İnan got the ball rolling in his sides Super Lig win over Eskişehirspor with a sweetly struck free kick that found the top corner.

    İnan’s free kick was a sign of things to come as Galatasaray brushed aside Eskişehirspor 4-0, with Yilmaz bagging a brace before Kisa added in the closing stages.

  • Normal One on Special One: If you’re not a journalist or referee he’s a nice guy

    Normal One on Special One: If you’re not a journalist or referee he’s a nice guy

    Relegation battlers Chelsea welcome mid-table floaters Liverpool to Stamford Bridge on Saturday in what is sure to be a right good old scrap. Over the next 48 hours or so expect to have the monikers Normal One and Special One rammed into your ears until you obediently adopt them and never mention their actual names ever again. Or, at least until another manager washes up on these shores and proclaims another ‘One’ title.

    Speaking before the clash, Liverpool manager the Normal One was his usual mischievous self, cheekily claiming that his opposite number, the Special One was a nice guy providing your’re not a referee or journalist or a medical professional for that matter. (We might have added that last one on there).

    The battle of the monikers kick’s off at 12.45pm on Saturday.

    Admit it. You jumped a little bit didn’t you?

  • Saint Adnan Janazaj refuses to take a dive

    Saint Adnan Janazaj refuses to take a dive

    You might want etch this time and date, as we witnessed a very rare moment of honesty in football this week, committed by Manchester United loanee Adnan Janazaj no less.

    Playing during Dortmund’s 7-1 thrashing of Paderborn in the German Cup on Wednesday evening, Janazaj skipped free down the right wing only to be legged up by a covering defender. Now, when almost any other player would have taken the dive there and then, and rightly earned himself the free kick, Janazaj – in what seemed like slow motion – hits the deck twice like a new born deer getting his footing, but refuses to go down.

    Fortunately, Janazaj is rewarded for his honesty and eventually the referee rightfully pulls it back for a free kick.

  • This stroppy Leeds fan really wasn’t happy with his side losing to Blackburn

    This stroppy Leeds fan really wasn’t happy with his side losing to Blackburn

    [gfycat data_id=”RealisticWhisperedEagle”]

    Leeds United slumped to another defeat last night, losing 2-0 at home to Blackburn, making it now three games with out a win under their portly new boss Steve Evans.

    The defeat leaves Evans’ side 18th in the table and winless at Elland Road since March, which was all too much to take for one particularly irate fan. Feeling aggrieved with the shoddy football on display, this Leeds fan does the only honourable thing and takes his frustration out on an opposition player by hurling the ball at him.

    Perhaps the fans’ ire might be better aimed at banned Leeds United supremo Massimo Cellino, who has worked his way through six(!) managers since taking over in April 2014.

  • Roberto Firmino can’t quite believe he gets a bottle of bubbly as a MoM award

    Roberto Firmino can’t quite believe he gets a bottle of bubbly as a MoM award

    Roberto Firmino has had a slow start to his Liverpool career following his £29m switch from Hoffenheim in the summer, but things could be looking up for the Brazilian forward after putting in a man of the match appearance against Bournemouth.

    During the post-match interview with goal scorer Nathaniel Clyne following Liverpool’s 1-0 Capital One Cup victory, an endearing Firmino is presented with a bottle of Champagne for his performance which he then innocently tries to give back.

    Yes Roberto, we don’t need much of an excuse to get the drink flowing over here.
