Swedish football? Tell him to go Dutch league instead ,at least he'll know loads about the next utd signingPut it on for a rag relative and all he said is that he should have been carded for dangerous play, then went on to explain how football is a bit shit now and he doesn't support the rags and is thinking of watching Swedish football instead.
When I laughed at him my wife gave me the look, she's running out of family that comes round.

It was certainly no fluke. My immediate reaction (at least when I realised that I could believe my eyes!) was to say that it was just like his goal against Dortmund. But this doesn't mean that he must, therefore, score every time he tries such an audacious manoeuvre. The athleticism required defies belief and he is probably the only player capable of it. The timing has to be perfector the miss can be by a mile. On this occasion Erling got everything spot on and it was a fabulous goal, a goal of genius. But if his timing is a whisker out next time he tries such a finish it doesn't mean it was a fluke, he's still a genius because he can actually score such a goal and no-one else can. To pull it off once suggests genius: twice screams genius!
