There seems to be a lot of talk suggesting the reason Nuno got sacked by Al Ittihad was due to a dressing room bust-up with Karim Benzema

Sadly there are no further details, so we don't know if it was six of one and half a dozen of the other, whether Nuno was being an inflexible demagogue, or if Benzema was criticised for being lazy so went and tattled on the club's owner who also happens to be Crown Prince of the entire ****ing country

"It is a great honour to become manager of a club with a history as rich as that of Skelmersdale United Football Club.
"I've been inspired by Guardiola, Mourinho, Simeone and Zidane, and as such just like those great managers, my philosophy will be to play attractive football."

He’s potty…..and a potty mouth, apparently.
They can’t play at home at present as their plastic pitch didn’t pass UEFA’s “bounce test”, but they’re working on it <confused>

Noted tax-dodger Uli Hoeness has unwittingly told Maxmilian Koch of Abendzeitung that he willingly submitted to a Levying for the ages, as the current version of what Bayern paid for Harry Kane (as Hoeness has already changed his story more than once since the summer...) was €95m - plus two pre-season friendlies between Spurs and Bayern where we get 100% of the proceeds
 
Just stumbled across this Twitter page, it’s got a bunch of other players from other clubs but these two stood out…

Unfortunately they probably don't have Darren Anderton's last ever touch in football, which was an 88th minute volley into the top corner for Bournemouth that won the match

I much prefer Bale's 'original' last ever touch, which was that 90th minute scorcher at home to Soton on the last day of the 2012/13 season.

I just checked and the goal came in the 86th minute, although I can’t be certain it’s highly likely he would’ve touched the ball again between then and the final whistle. Great shout otherwise.
