Football gold on YouTube

A small selection of excellent football videos on YouTube, in no particular order (aside from the first one, which is obviously the funniest thing ever).

How the f*ck have you kicked that over here?
Then Portsmouth manager Harry Redknapp loses his shit during an interview with Sky Sports.

I’m a f*cking football manager
Harry Redknapp loses his shit. Again.

Iceland were … how you say? Ze Underdog
Steve McClaren is confident that England are going to take care of Iceland at Euro 2016. For a few seconds. Keep dominating!

Massive underdogs
As referenced above, McClaren also developed a faux Dutch accent soon after taking over at Dutch side FC Twente, causing much lolling on Twitter.

UN-BELIEVABLE!
Gary Neville achieved notoriety with his EMF-inspired commentary on a Fernando Torres goal that clinched Chelsea’s win Champions League win against Barcelona in 2012:

UN-BELIEVABLE – part deux
Here is the original.

What sort of thing is happening here? (Long-form video warning)
If you’ve never seen the documentary ‘The Impossible Job’, about Graham Taylor’s ill-starred reign as England coach, here it is. It’s a treat, partly because Taylor is clearly a lovely man, and partly (unfortunately) because he was falling apart under the strain of the job. It’s 49minutes well spent, whenever you can manage it. (It’s not called Impossible Dream, but sincere thanks to whoever uploaded it).

Maradona warms up
Maradona is a true legend. Unlike John Sitton.

Sitton inside so strong
He’s so right: When it pops out, you’ve got to be crafty. He’s wasting his breath on some of them. Still not a legend, though.

Recoba’s rockets
Back to Italy to enjoy Alvaro Recoba’s explosive debut for Inter Milan back in 1997. His new team were losing at home to Brescia and even Ronaldo couldn’t find a way through. Enter the Uruguayan with a left foot like a traction engine. And another!

Good lad!
Brian Clough v Don Revie. Say no more.

On me ‘ead son
Let’s finish with Martin Palermo scoring a header for Boca Juniors from about 40 yards back in 2009. Incidentally he missed three penalties for Argentina in a Copa America match in 1999, but the video isn’t all that. Thanks for watching. Goodbye.
