Kyle Walker Freaks Out More Tottenham Players With Halloween Prank
Kyle Walker is back as the Tottenham video team’s avatar in their seasonal effort to get the club’s players to squeal like children. Some good shrieks up there, and while Jan Vertonghen’s reaction isn’t quite as stoic as last time, his countryman Mousa Dembélé makes up for it....
Manchester United Are (Sort Of) For Real, Apparently

Chelsea To Fans: Guys, Please Don't Be Racist This Weekend

Mario Balotelli Does Good Thing On Soccer Field

This Ridiculous Érik Lamela Goal Will Make You Feel Things
OK. Forget the stakes for a second. Forget that these are two bored teams playing in a second-tier tournament. Forget that Érik Lamela has gone his whole career without developing anything resembling a right foot, and still probably makes more money in a week than you do in a year. Is this the sexie...
