Tweets of the Week: Xhaka’s ‘apology’, three points for a cup win, scenes in Newcastle

The best and funniest tweets of the week from the world of football, featuring Granit Xhaka’s non-apology apology, Marcus Rashford confusing competitions, absolute scenes in Newcastle, and Jesse Lingard’s clothing brand failure. 

The shock and horror when you’ve been abusing someone and they bite back:

Gotta love the fact that Xhaka had too much pride to apologise:

Sometimes, it’s the little things that count. 

Big Virg was impressed with Liverpool’s young goalkeeper anyway. 

The good karma from that act of kindness didn’t go very far, though.

If only Man United got any points for that win against Chelsea…

Just look at those scenes. What football is all about. 

When worlds collide.

This meme is never going to die, is it?

Priorities, eh?

Something tells me Jesse Lingard will be just fine financially speaking after this debacle.
