Q: is the aim to win four trophies?
A: WTF pic.twitter.com/CbF3ifT4rt— Sam Lee (@Sammy_Goal) September 18, 2016
Pep Guardiola is already running the table in his first season with Man City, but if you’re a journalist who asks him if he’s gunning for a quadruple, he’s going to demonstrate his mastery of exasperated swearing in the English language for you.
Heading to Vicarage Road with two consecutive losses, Man United were desperate for a win. Instead, they lost 3-1 — their first loss to Watford in 30 years.
Anytime you get Antonio Conte and Jurgen Klopp in the same building, you know there’s going to be a lot of facial contortions. Add in the fact that Liverpool dealt Chelsea their first loss under their new manager and you’ve got a recipe for some over the top face drama.
You’re likely unable to forget when Cristiano Ronaldo announced his new line of blankets while presumably nude underneath one of them a couple months ago. Well, Elite Team sent me one and it is absolutely massive.
When a manager leaves one club to join another, it sends a ripple effect through the world of football. And when Schalke hired Markus Weinzierl, that ripple went all the way from the Bundesliga down to the amateur ranks of the German game, resulting in a conciliatory shipment of beer.

You can’t effectively shout at your teammates in the tunnel if you don’t speak their language, so Joe Hart, on loan from Man City at Torino, is working on his Italian. He demonstrated this during a press conference by reading a prepared statement and received a round of applause for his effort.
Jose Mourinho has won everything. So now he’s giving the opposite a try. And it’s going really well.
Bayern held their annual Paulaner lederhosen photoshoot and, as per usual, Thomas Müller was the standout performer.
For their first Champions League group-stage match since 1995, Legia Warsaw fans knew they had to do something special. And they did so by marrying pyro with tifo in an intimidating display.
In the film Groundhog Day, after Bill Murray’s character lived the same day over and over and over again, he eventually lost his will to live and began to try and end his life so his repetitive torment would finally be over. Only it didn’t work, and the same day began anew regardless of his fatal actions. Well, this appears to be the position in which Arsene Wenger currently finds himself in the Champions League.
