In our 10 things this week from the weird and wonderful world of football, we have a manager swapping careers to the music industry, Mo Salah’s nipples and a coolbox-turned-defender. Confused? As are we…
Parking the Busquets - Shame they couldn't have squeezed that one in, although United fans have probably had enough of buses now…
Luck of the Draw - Sending an extremely risky text… and miraculously, when all hope seems lost, it comes off.
Outrageous Dummy - Queue your striker trying this perfectly executed step-over, and also queue the abuse they get when the opposition keeper picks up the ball, unopposed.
M-Sky - Huge props to whoever managed to complete the seemingly insurmountable task of turning ex Hull City and current Vitesse gaffer, ‘Leonid Slutsky’ into the next Grime sensation. Someone get him a record deal. Genuinely.
You can't teach an old Rob new tricks - Yes Rob, this megs is impressive and all, but we have not forgotten for your clanger in the 2010 World Cup against the USA. Yours sincerely, England fans.
Stop, drop and...goal? - In a desperate attempt to score a late equaliser in the Semi Final of the FA cup, Watford midfielder Etienne Capoue helps his teammate Adrian Mariappa in comical fashion, dropping to the ground to avoid blocking his ball into the box.
50/50 grit - With the staple 50/50 becoming a dying art in modern football, it’s refreshing to watch a series of loose balls being greeted by whole hearted challenges. Leicester v Newcastle provides this in its entirety, with some tackles that will please any old school football fan.
Mo weirdness - Even for Liverpool fans, this is odd. We’re all for praising players, but nipples? Come on.
Play on words - Finally, we’ve found the final member of our scrabble team. ‘Sydenham FC’ with a clever, somewhat over the top dig at their opposition, ‘Streathem Rovers’.
A cool from grace - Imagine having to tell people you are out for a month because you were fouled by a cool box… At least the unfortunate C.A. Independiente player helps the cool box up, sportsmanship and everything.
And that's that. Have a good one...
