Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool debut in six seconds
Jurgen Klopp led Liverpool out for the first time in their 0-0 draw with Spurs on Saturday and the entire game is perfectly summed up in this six-second Vine. It was frustrating to watch, lacked a payoff, and entirely focused on Jurgen Klopp.
Arsenal fans did some unwanted redecorating at White Hart Lane
As if having Mathieu Flamini score a brace to beat you 2-1 in the Capital One Cup (FLAMINI! A BRACE!) and getting Wayne Gretzky’s name wrong wasn’t bad enough, Spurs had the added displeasure of having the signage around White Hart Lane torn down by the visiting supporters.
Man United’s top summer signing, Own Goal, makes triumphant return to Old Trafford
After spending more than £70 million (so far) this summer, Manchester United’s most important signing and much discussed mystery striker revealed himself to be returning club legend Own Goal, who scored the winner against Spurs at Old Trafford to open the new season on a positive note.
Spurs prove they’re not yet at MLS level in loss to All-Stars
Tottenham Hotspur were hoping to prove themselves against the MLS All-Stars, but a 2-1 loss only demonstrated that they aren’t yet up to the level of the U.S. top division. The MLS All-Stars jumped out to 2-0 lead by the 23rd minute with a penalty from Kaka, who then set up David Villa for the second. Spurs striker Harry Kane got one back before halftime, but the MLS side took their opponents a bit more seriously and shut them down in the second half.

Harry Kane is England’s savior and should be treated as an infallible god
Like some sort of violent tropical storm, 21-year-old Harry Kane is an unstoppable force of nature that is superior to humanity in every way. If his 29 goals in 43 appearances for Spurs this season left anyone unconvinced, Kane proved his omnipotence by scoring just 80 seconds into his England debut.
Wayne Rooney boxes Phil Bardsley in his kitchen, celebrates goal by miming knockout
The Sun has published video of Wayne Rooney boxing Sunderland defender Phil Bardsley in his kitchen. The impromptu showdown reportedly came the day after Manchester United’s loss at Swansea last month.
An evening in exile with Radamel Falcao
A mere 24 hours after serving as an unused substitute in Manchester United’s FA Cup loss to Arsenal (their first loss at home to Arsenal since 2006), Falcao started in a U-21 match against Spurs at Old Trafford. It wasn’t the manner in which a club usually has an on-loan player earn his £260,000 a week, but it does show the brand of anarchy currently gripping Man United.
The following is a rundown of what happened in this depressingly star-studded U-21 fixture.
Petr Cech consoles Harry Kane after the Capital One Cup final
“Hey, Harry, I just wanted to say that I’m sorry about all this. I know it’s tough to lose a cup final. It happens to the best of us, though. See these hands? Even though you couldn’t get a single shot past them today, others have. And when they did, I was just as upset as you are. But look at me now! I’ve won yet another trophy and I couldn’t be happier. Pretty great, isn’t it?
