I can’t stand this propaganda. Everyone with a football brain knows Princess Diana was nothing more than a YouTube highlight reel player.

This might make Bernardo Silva feel better about his dreadful penalty miss against real Madrid.
"It's the worst penalty you'll see, certainly this season and maybe ever!"

Man City put ‘frustrating’ week behind them to reach FA Cup final
Good to see there’s still room for tender moments at the top level of the game.
“ederson….”
“yeah?”

Barcelona are the football equivalent of Sideshow Bob stepping on a rake over and over again.
Barcelona fans accidentally attacking their team bus arriving at the stadium turned out to be the perfect metaphor for their team's performance tonight.

The record Champions League goal scorers as Mbappe enters top ten
Reject modernity, embrace tradition.
Imagine the Champions League only featured champions. Forgotten nations would have an equal share of competitive football again.
And the league. Suddenly three of the top four teams who don’t win the league have to throw everything at the FA Cup for Europe. Real jeopardy. Sport.

Why did Jamie Carragher have to do him like that?

The decision to scrap FA Cup replays didn’t go down well.
'The next Premier League player who says he doesn't want to play an FA Cup replay should be ordered to ring the parents of a child from Blyth who has spent all night making a tin foil version of the FA Cup, and tell them his reasons' pic.twitter.com/6QmxGekBOT

EFL not consulted over FA Cup replay decision
This photo has thrown me for a loop.
It’s really disconcerting seeing Eric Cantona in a Sheffield Wednesday shirt
…so much so that you almost overlook the fact they had James Acaster playing in goal pic.twitter.com/U1iQqcph0N

Find someone who is as obsessed with you as football commentators are with the ‘technical area’.
Commentators are obsessed by the technical area man, they talk about it like it’s the prostate. What’s going on with it, what’s in it and outside it

The players with most Champions League away knockout goals
You can see the moment where Matt Le Tissier realises he took a wrong turn in life.
I think in this clip you can see that Le Tissier knows it's all gone horribly wrong. He just wanted someone to agree with his shit theories about covid and now he's listening to a man talking about Johan Cruyff being in witness protection and the resurrection of Princess Diana. pic.twitter.com/prBrJRJlhC
