Silverware experts have agreed that the Europa League trophy has simply spent too long in Sevilla’s possession to be released back into the wild or another club’s possession. As a result, the trophy must now stay with the Spanish club forever.

A full-kit wanker invaded an England training session
A guy in an England training kit invaded the team’s first pre-Euro 2016 training session and no one really cared. The man jogged towards the players, who were taking a water break at the time, kicked a couple of balls towards empty nets, and jogged away without anyone doing much more than watch him do what he pleased.
The most miserable people at the 2016 Europa League final
Sevilla came back from 1-0 down to beat Liverpool 3-1 and win a record third consecutive Europa League title. Obviously a second cup final loss in one season is enough to dampen the spirits of anyone on Liverpool’s side, but a few people had worse experiences in Basel than others.
This is a bizarre picture of Harry Kane
Harry Kane is on the cover of the new issue of Forever Sports magazine and this is one of the images from that shoot. I have no idea what’s going on here.

Jamie Vardy wore a “chat s***, get banged” shirt at Leicester’s title parade
Monday was a good day for Jamie Vardy. He was named to England’s Euro 2016 squad and took part in Leicester’s title parade. So he needed to wear something that reflects his status as a rising star who is refining his image for the international stage. After all, this is a man who just launched his own V9 Academy to help get non-league players the coaching they need to make the step up to the next level like he did.
And that’s why he went with a “Chat shit, get banged” shirt — the catchphrase that originated from a 2011 Facebook status update written by a then unknown Vardy after his move to Fleetwood Town and is now an ass tattoo.
Conspiracy Theory: Louis van Gaal behind Old Trafford evacuation to prolong his Man Utd stay
Manchester United’s final match of the Premier League season had to be abandoned and Old Trafford evacuated due to a “suspicious device” found in a bathroom at the stadium prior to kickoff. Once it was decided that it wasn’t the product of Wayne Rooney’s gastrointestinal system, the item was detonated in a controlled explosion and ruled to be “an incredibly realistic-looking explosive device,” according to the Greater Manchester Police. It also happened to be “a training device which had accidentally been left by a private company following a training exercise involving explosive search dogs.”
This raises the question: of all the things to leave behind, how could this company possibly leave one of their fake explosives? Well, maybe they didn’t.
John Terry, Wojciech Szczesny, Lukas Podolski all mock Spurs on their day of embarrassment
Only Spurs could find a way to finish third behind Arsenal in a two-horse race that did not involve Arsenal. They went winless in their last four matches of the season, starting with a 1-1 draw against West Brom, then squandering a two-goal lead to Chelsea for a 3-3 draw that sealed the title for Leicester, then they lost 2-1 to Southampton, but they saved their most incredible embarrassment for last.
