It‘s a fake - think the Brighton logos behind him are a bit of a give away

It’s very plausible though, even if the photo is old.

It’s just a bit of banter by some Twitter knob. But lots seem to think it was real. That’s the trouble with Twitter I guess

Fair play to the woman asking Pep questions at the end, informative and shown a far greater understanding of the game than many of the post match interviewers I've seen.

Barton will be fuming

King Kev Keegan won't be happy either...

Sure and that is a pitfall of Twitter.

What Maupay said to Walker isn’t known, but it’s most likely to be something about his current private life and if it was, Walker has invited it happening in every game he plays in for the foreseeable future unless he shows he can deal with it better.

A few months ago, Ben Mee went on to SKY Sports to talk about how best to stop Erling Haaland. His 'approach' was to double-up on the striker. I therefore found it amusing that yesterday, he doubled-up on Haaland at one point, leaving one Brentford defender to cover Foden and Bernardo, thus enabling Phil to score his second goal lol

I thought everyone knew you can't be offside from a goal kick, same as a throw in...

I had no idea. But then I didn’t go on to be a smarmy, pointy cheeked, ridiculous accented spitter and ask someone a question clearly there to set the kid up.

Pep obviously Sky+d that and showed it KDB and Foden.

That's been a tactic for a while if they don't he scores when they do someone else scores Haaland offers so much more than is obvious
