At least everyone can join in on laughing at Rio Ferdinand.
Whether you agree with Rodri winning the Ballon dโOr or not, weโre all winners here because Rio Ferdinand looks like a fool for this

It's almost like the Ballon d'Or voting panel ignored Rio Ferdinand shouting "Ballon d'Or, Ballon d'Or, Ballon d'Or, Ballon d'Or, Ballon d'Or" at Vini Jr entirely

Man United finally sacked Erik ten Hag this week. Time to reset the cycle of mediocrity at Old Trafford.
Amorim sounds exciting. So did Ten Hag. Hard not to think itโs the beginning of a very similar cycle.

Huge fan of watching MOTD when you only know the score and they show a poverty yellow card. Itโs just a countdown till the next one and a sending off.

Viktor Gyokeres is almost certainly not worth the price tag Sporting have put on him. Which means heโs definitely joining either Chelsea or Man United.
