It's been a good weekend for these hotshots, as they continue to make names at their new clubs. Which summer signing has so far proved best value for money? #tigres #gignac #spurs #niceoneson #milan #chewbacca #mufc #martialarts
"I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one!" The incomparable Brian Clough guided @officialnffc to back-to-back European Cups. He passed away #onthisday in 2004. #Cloughie #OlBigHead #OneOfAKind #Nottingham #Forest #NFFC #DCFC #Boro #IBelieveInMiracles #Legend

#OnThisDay in 1993, the #seleção sunk #Uruguay 2-0 to snatch a place at the 1994 #WorldCup. Carlos Alberto Parreira ate humble pie by recalling #Romário, and 'Shortie' responded with both goals. "God sent Romario" said a relieved Parreira. A year later, #Brazil were world champions. #brasil #copadomundo #Maracana #rosebowl #pasadena #11 #penaltyshootout #tetracampeão #goldenshoe #baixinho #foxinthebox 🇧🇷
Tim Sherwood & Tony Pulis were all smiles before today's West Midlands derby. The away team had the last laugh, as #WBA won 1-0, through a @berahino18 goal. #AVFC #WestMidlands #boingboing #baggies #bpl #premierleague #joker #havingalaugh #localbraggingrights
The Kenyan town Iten is famous for producing medal winning runners, such as Peter Rono, Wilson Kipketer and David Rudisha. But this image proves that football is alive and kicking there too. #FirstLove #football #Kenya #Iten #scorchedearth #beautifulgame #spottheball #photooftheday

Mauro Ramos captained @cbf_futebol to FIFA World Cup glory in 1962. Forty years later he joyfully watched Cafu do the same. #OnThisDay in 2002, the centre-back passed away. Who is the most inspirational captain that YOU would have run through walls for? #Brazil #Brasil #WorldCup #champion #capitão #Selecão #MauroRamos

Several football stars will attend the tournament, including Lothar Matthäus, Gianluca Zambrotta and Fernando Hierro. #WorldCup #Russia #Moscow #1000days #RedSquare
@neymarjr has recently been wowing social media followers by juggling oranges! Diego Maradona was renowned for his breathtaking golf-ball juggling repertoire. But larger makeshift footballs can also be challenging to control – just ask @hannover96 midfielder Leon Andreasen! #Neymar #Maradona #Andreasen #Hannover #DieRoten #Denmark #tricksters #juggling #showboating #SuperSize #H96
They called him ‘The Little Devil’ & he vindicated the nickname by terrorising opponents with devilish trickery. Happy 45th birthday Edilson, who won the FIFA Club World Cup with @corinthians & the FIFA World Cup with Brazil. #Capetinha #LittleDevil #Brazil #Brasil #Seleção #WorldCup #ClubWC #NutmegWizard
He was born in the same English town as Sir Geoff Hurst. He became a hero in the red half of Rome. He won the FIFA World Cup in blue. Happy 38th birthday to former @officialasroma & @azzurri midfielder Simone Perrotta! #AshtonUnderLyne #Statue #Roma #Giallorossi #Italy #Azzurri #Nazionale #WorldCup #Germany2006 #Indefatigable #Berlin #HappyBirthday #BuonCompleanno #TantiAuguri
