We love his eccentricity, we love that he goes into third person when it comes to the notion of tryouts. We love that there’s a #DaretoZlatan campaign and he’s…

The Intrigue that is Alexandre Lacazette
As of this moment, the top three players in non penalty goals this season in the five European leagues are Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and — wait for it… Alexandre Lacazette.

The Edinson Cavani Dilemma
His transfer fee in the summer of 2013 cost €64 million, but you wouldn’t have guessed it if you watched Edinson Cavani’s performance last Sunday at the Parc de Princes.
