Everyone is naked​

Rooney's home truths​


💬 Quote of the day​

“Probably just treat myself to a kebab. Get myself some bottles of coke, bottles of Fanta.

Probably treat myself to some more vapes” - 16-year-old darts prodigy Luke Littler on how he’ll spend his £200,000 of prize money.

📱 Well done, he’s 14​

Wayne Rooney has been a surprisingly soft touch as a manager, lamenting his “tiny knob” in a team talk and earnestly thanking his employers every time he gets his P45.

So when Birmingham sent him packing this week, it fell on Rooney’s teenage son Kai to play bad cop.

In a leaked Instagram exchange, the 14-year-old branded the Birmingham squad “dogshite”, keeper John Ruddy “overweight”, and centre back Dion Sanderson “absolutely awful”, insisting he needs to “get that fucking long hair gone”.

But he saved the nastiest surprise for Fulham’s Raul Jimenez, revealing the Championship basement dwellers were set to sign him.

When they splashed out on faded wonderkid James Rodriguez, Qatari side Al Rayyan were hoping the former Real Madrid man would sprinkle a bit of stardust on their young side.

But it turns out James was more interested in waving his willy around the dressing room than teaching his teammates about false 9s.
Reflecting on his “nightmare” spell in Qatar this week, the Colombian complained his new colleagues banned him from going naked in the showers:

"You know that everyone is naked in football when showering, but the teammates told me: 'you can't do it like that'. I was scared."
Perhaps the infamous (and totally untrue) WhatsApp message had gone round the dressing room…

🤔 Moving the goalposts​

In his 1,251 games as a professional goalkeeper, Gigi Buffon kept conspicuously quiet about the rules of the game.

But just months after retiring with a record 501 clean sheets, the Italian has had a brainwave: make the goals bigger.

In an interview with Tuttosport, the once miserly keeper explained his freewheeling new vision to turn football into a goalfest:

“Thirty years ago, for every fifty shots, there were 10 goals. Today, 3 out of 50 is very low. Scoring from a distance against a two-meter-tall goalkeeper is much more challenging."

🤝 Sim-ulation​

Another sign that Diego Simeone’s culture of utter bastardry has infiltrated every part of Atletico Madrid.

Before the derby against hated rivals Real, Atletico’s under 12 captain greeted his opponents like they’d just pilfered the last padron pepper from the tapas board.

There was a time when Andy Gray howling “take a booo son” was considered the height of dramatic commentary.

But in the age of Peter Drury, commentators are expected to deliver a Shakespearean soliloquy every time an indirect free-kick is awarded.

So when their side became the first ever to lose six wickets without scoring, Indian viewers held their breath for the iconic words of their former coach Ravi Shastri.

In the end he went for: "If someone went around the corner for a dump and has just come back, India has been bowled out for 153.”
