The funniest tweets from the world of football this week, featuring the best recreation of goal celebrations you will ever see, Pep Guardiola’s hideous touchline attire, and when football shows its true class.
There’s also LeBron James destroying Zlatan Ibrahimovic, a Real Madrid legend making deliveries of a different kind, and Tomas Soucek celebrating with his old teammates.
I have had this video on repeat for three days straight.

How could you not love Tomas Soucek?

Managerial logic:
17 years old playing in the champions league, think you’d ever see a 17 year old in Non-league.. these managers will tell you ‘they need experience’ 🤣

Five of the worst Premier League title defences after 25 games
José Mourinho blaming the players. Who could have possibly foreseen this happening?
Jose Mourinho arrived at Tottenham in November 2019 marvelling at the quality of the squad. 15 months later, with ~£135m spent on transfers, and now he’s claiming matters are beyond his control as the players aren’t good enough. What a curious development.

Although maybe he has a point…

Something tells me the Labour leader doesn’t actually know what a box-to-box midfielder does.
Sir Keir Starmer on his football strategy – “I’m a midfield player in the middle of the pitch, I like to think I’m a box-to-box player which means across the whole pitch” #ridge

LeBron wasn’t the only one dunking on someone he’s never met.
