There’s football analogies. Then there’s this! 😂😅 Japan coach Nils Nielsen delivered an all-timer on eve of Women’s Asian Cup final. Asked if Australia were favourites: “It’s like asking a bee to explain to a fly, why honey is better than shit?” 💩

Reality of what happened, vs LinkedIn explanation:

🚨 Thierry Henry thinks that the 2003 Ballon d'Or results should also be overturned. 😭

🚨 David Raya: “I was very close to go to another club before joining Arsenal… and luckily that didn't happen, so Arsenal made the bid”, told Sky. “The club was FC Bayern”. 👀

When Ray Parlour got divorced, it was a bad time for him. Arsene Wenger was good with him through it. If he needed time to sort things with his lawyer, Wenger would let him go and do it. Parlour usually said no. He would rather train and keep his mind off it. Then one day a story came out in the papers. It said his ex-wife was going to get 40% of his future income. The reason it was so high was because a court believed she had saved his career. Wenger always read the papers. That morning all the players were in the medical room getting their strapping done. Wenger always came in and went round the room asking how everyone was. Parlour was sat in the corner joking with the rest of them when Wenger walked in. Then he came straight over to him. The room went quiet. Parlour thought he was going to say something serious. “I’ve just read the papers. You’ve had some bad news.” “You’ve just lost 40% of your future income because she saved your career.” Parlour just looked at him. “Yes, boss. Bad news, really. I can’t believe it.” “Ray, where’s my 40%?” “I’ve saved your career as well.” And with that he just walked off laughing.

Piero Hincapié was awarded by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ecuador, Alejandro Dávalos, during a discussion held at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London. A recognition for all his efforts as a football player, for representing his country and being an example to the youth. 👏🤩🇪🇨 (🎥 TikTok: natalia.vera.f)

“My mum told me to reject the AFCON trophy. I'm officially rejecting the trophy and hope my teammates do the same. We had a chance to win it but we failed to win it. That's football, sometimes you win and sometimes you lose. Senegal beat us fairly and deserved the win. It will be unfair to ruin their joy after the hardwork they put in. I respect the CAF decision but I'm officially rejecting the trophy. I didn't win 2025 AFCON. Congratulations to Senegal once again.”🇸🇳❤️ —Achraf Hakimi Source [Marca]

How many trophies will Arsenal win this season? 🏆🏆🏆🏆

Who was/is the most complete midfielder in the Premier League?

Trent Alexander-Arnold plays right-back for Real Madrid. Started home and away against Manchester City. He won the Premier League and Champions League at right-back with Liverpool. He’s used to dealing with pressure. He’s taken a decisive tournament penalty. He’s played in the World Cup before. He has occasional defensive deficiencies but he brings a long-range passing skill that few possess. Are England that blessed at right-back that they don’t need Alexander-Arnold? That he isn’t amongst the best 30 outfield players available to Thomas Tuchel?

🚨 BREAKING: Football madness in Brazil 🇧🇷 A goal scored in just 19 SECONDS… without even touching the ball 😳⚽ Novorizontino capitalise on a shocking error by Sport Recife in Série B. You’ll never see this again 😂

💬 “Coming back. Scoring a goal as a fan. My way.” Thierry blind-ranks his best moments in an Arsenal shirt 👀 Raising The Bar - streaming now on The Arsenal 📱

Luke Shaw not being called up is ridiculous. There seems to be a strange narrative surrounding him, but when he’s fit, he’s a top quality footballer who absolutely deserves to be on that plane.

Klopp is a mad man for using this kind of destructive combo to bully Europe for years😭
