The best football posts from social media this week as chaos descended on Real Madrid, Marseille and Prague, while another Spygate scandal hit the Championship.
Real dominated the news cycle this week when it emerged that Jose Mourinho is the favourite to become their next manager at the same time as Kylian Mbappe caused a stir when he was photographed on holiday with his girlfriend. Fans didn’t take too kindly to the French superstar jetting off in the middle of a disappointing campaign.
But that wasn’t even the biggest story of the week, as Aurelien Tchouameni knocked out Fede Valverde after the pair got into a dressing room tussle.
Although this happened behind closed doors, El Chiringuito has done everyone a massive favour by recreating it using AI. This is the one time I can get behind artificially generated slop.
The Madrid Zone, an aggregator account covering everything Real, has been on a generational heater this week. Their use of block capitals is a sight to behold.
I think Alvaro Arbeloa might have lost the dressing room. Just a hunch.
All of it makes the Madrid boss VERY SAD.
With all of this going on, it’s possible you missed the utter anarchy at Marseille, where a team retreat turned into something resembling a reformatory for delinquent teens. Former Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang reportedly unloaded a fire extinguisher into the room of a team official.
If that wasn’t chaotic enough for you, then check out what happened in Prague on Saturday.
Slavia supporters stormed the pitch, lobbing flares at the Sparta players and fans. They got their own title-winning game abandoned with less than four minutes of stoppage time remaining.
Southampton have been accused of cheating by Middlesbrough after one of their employees was caught spying on a training session ahead of the play-off semi-finals. Boro fans made hay while the sun shone.
Saints manager Tonda Eckert got tired of all the questions about Spygate 2.0 and walked out of his press conference after Saturday’s goalless draw with Boro.
Meanwhile, a youth match in Brazil got way out of hand and resulted in a player racing from the bench to dropkick an opponent.
Pep Guardiola is hoping for a favour from West Ham United on Sunday.
Probably the most cringeworthy thing we’ve ever seen at a football match.
Sky Sports have been EXPOSED for their LIES.
This is how you run a football club’s social media account.
Sean Dyche has been a brilliant addition to Instagram.
A lovely moment between Liverpool fan Sean Cox and Mo Salah.
After an uninspiring draw with Chelsea, it’s fair to say Liverpool fans are fed up of Arne Slot.
They are going to great lengths to replace the Dutchman.
Bournemouth are enjoying one hell of a season.
