It is once again time for those hipsters over at The Guardian to release their list of the top 100 footballers in the world, which means it is once again time for us here at The18 to release OUR list of 100 footballers. Whereas The Guardian undoubtedly used science and metrics and judges of soccer talent to decide on their list, we just named some pla
If Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a lion, Gaetano Letizia is a regular, domesticated house cat.
Cats are prideful animals — anything they do, they totally meant to do it. When a cat does anything wrong, like failing to properly measure a jump, the cat will always try to shake it off and pretend it was deliberate.
Wayne Rooney has been working in a community garden as part of his punishment for drunk driving, and, according to the BBC, he has been enjoying it.

And so everyone is losing their collective shit over the approaching release of Rampage starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
During Sunday's Bundesliga match between Cologne and Freiburg, the referee called a penalty for Cologne. The only problem was no one could find the penalty spot. So where is it? We think we can figure it out.

-Under the bed
-In the garage
-In the attic
Following a dust-up in the tunnel after the Manchester derby, the Internet is rife with speculation as to what actually happened.
Were Manchester City really celebrating that loudly? Did Jose Mourinho actually get milk thrown on him? What in the world happened to Mikel Arteta's eye? These are all questions that we have. Questions that demand answers. Especially the milk one. That's just hilarious.
