In their latest attempt to intimidate the Turkish Premier League, Fenerbahce have released video of their keepers performing superhuman feats of gymnastics and goalkeeping AT THE SAME TIME!

This is just about one of the most tiring thing we have ever seen. I can feel my thighs starting to burn just watching.  

When it comes to describing Luis Suarez, Gerrard Pique said it best. 

“He is a different style of player to those we had before. Xavi and Iniesta are really sweet and you enjoy watching them with the ball. With Luis Suárez it is the other side: he fights.” 

I almost feel bad for Sepp Blatter at this point; keyword: almost. 

Don’t get me wrong, what is happening to him is completely pathetic and pitiful, but he deserves it all. His first words of his latest press conference were so ironic it was like someone paid him to take classes in poetic irony just for the occasion:

“We have to clean here first.”

Yes, Sepp, yes you do. 

One of the great benefits of preseason tours is players get to learn more about each other and bond before the season starts.

A fantastic, and sometimes hilarious, side-effect of this is the fans get to learn more about the players too, and sometimes we learn more than we ever though we would.

The hilarity of this side-effect was on display during Liverpool's tour of Australia, when defender Kolo Toure revealed he is afraid of animals.

My fiends and I attempted to play soccer on bicycles back in middle school. It didn’t end well. It ended in tears, in fact. 

So it’s more than a little shocking to see professional athletes that have taken playing soccer on bikes to the pinnacle of it’s art. And it really does have a certain beauty to it, a jerky, easy-rider-with-laser-beams beauty. 

A lot of you probably think beach soccer is a wannabe sport for wannabe athletes. 

I’m here to tell you that you are wrong. 

First of all, the sport relies on bicycle kicks and volleys for its scoring, which means that goals that might happen once every couple of weeks in “grass-ball” happen multiple times per game in beach soccer. Four words: bicycle kick hat-trick; that’s a real thing. 

Ronaldo either learned a valuable lesson or took his diving theatrics to a whole new level at a recent Real Madrid training.

A video surfaced showing Ronaldo bumping Portugal and Real Madrid teammate Pepe, then Pepe getting sweet revenge.

He went in hard for a tackle and Ronaldo flopped around like a fish out of water. 

What do you think, did Pepe actually hurt Ronaldo or was Cristiano just faking.

I hope to one day be as great as Alfredo Di Stefano. That in and of itself is nothing unique or special — many hope to be as great as he was — what’s special is how much I mean it. 

I want to one day be able to be the man that can look into Cristiano Ronaldo’s eyes and know that there is mutual respect in that gaze, that gives Zinedine Zidane his Real Madrid shirt, that makes a club like Real Madrid the legend that it is today. 

The most exciting moment of Wigan Athletic's preseason 1-1 draw at Altrincham didn't occur during actual gameplay.

Wigan defender James Tavernier was about to take a corner when a young fan ran onto the field and stole Tavernier's thunder.

Tavernier's reaction is pretty hilarious.
