10 Things You Might Have Missed This Week – 25/10/19

You know it's a good week when you get double Dean. Welcome to a bumper edition of 10 things you might have missed this week, for no real reason other than football has been particularly weird over the last seven days. Sit back and enjoy…

Ball Control – The ultimate sign off as Zlatan looks to depart the MLS following Galaxy's defeat to local rivals LAFC.

How's Your Touch – Jorginho getting overly familiar with Batshuayi following his late winner against Ajax. Bit of a theme so far...

1-0 To The Ox – Just got to look at the grin on his face. United fans fuming.

Donnie Divers – Lads worked on their celebration for weeks in training. Then the big moment arrived and they executed it to perfection.

Pierluigi Dean – The big MD doing his best Collina impression ahead of the Sheffield United v Arsenal game.

Double Dean – The man is pure showbiz and you love to see it. Dramatic last minute goal kicks that will be greeted with a huge roar. The type of stuff he dreams of. Right up there with goals from a Deano advantage.

Keane On Kane – "What are you all staring at?" Watched that a fair few times. The fear in the studio.

Clothes-Linesman – No rolling around with his hand in the air, took it like a man.

Playing Possum – The miracle recovery. Should be booked for that.

Gent Or Bust – It was a simple left or right decision out of Brugge. Easy mistake to make... right? 

What Are The Odds – Another case of having to check a keeper's Ladbrokes account.

GK FK – Even better when you realise that this was an 89th-minute equaliser in what ended up being a dramatic 2-1 away win. Hats off, sir.

Sitting Pretty – Modern football. You love to hate it.

When Nature Calls – Never get away with that down the local astro without at least one shot smacking you in the arse, resulting in you sprinkling all over your boots. At least he washed his hands.

Face It, Chris – In case you're wondering, VAR isn't available until the final in the Europa League. Smalling well happy about that.

What Football's All About – As much as football is weird, it's also sometimes heart-warmingly brilliant. His grandma taking him to the football since his grandad passed. We're not crying, you are...

And that's your lot. Football. Brilliantly mental.
