The best and funniest tweets from the world of football, featuring possibly the worst game in the history of Monday Night Football, Arsenal sabotaging Spurs, and Rihanna weighing in on VAR decisions.
After having to sit through Manchester United vs Arsenal, it was difficult to describe what it was like as a viewing experience.
United v Arsenal was like watching two blind pigeons fight over a sausage roll.

Some people were angry that Granit Xhaka didn’t simply eat the ball whole to stop it from going in the net.
For those that are having a go at Xhaka
He’s standing 10 yards away and the balls moving at 80mph.
If something is coming at your face at that speed your instinct is to protect yourself.
Don’t give the archaic view, he’s the captain he should stop it with his face! #MUNARS— Jonathan Walters (@JonWalters19) September 30, 2019
At least now we can put that awful match behind us.
Surely the Advertising Standards Authority need to step in and stop Sky Sports from calling Newcastle against Manchester United a 'Super' Sunday game.

He might as well have stuck his flag into the pitch, Graeme Souness at Galatasaray style.
Serge Gnabry has scored as many goals at the new Spurs stadium as Harry Kane

He really didn’t want him to have the match ball.

Tottenham spent all that time building a new stadium and then went and lost the dressing room

Oh no…
It’s not going too well for Real Madrid either.
God, this is satisfying. Feels like when wrestler does their opponent’s finisher on them. More of this sort of thing, please. https://t.co/yqRVa33C0V

Experienced at the back, but lacks creativity in the midfield.
