And that makes me happy! I feel like a winner today!*

Is that why you look after their Gold and Bank Accounts?

I'm a gentleman so I refuse to talk about money.

A real shame Ronaldo had to leave the field early.

As a neutral I would really have loved to see some of his brilliance today.

It's only when he played for Manure that I really hated him and he probably is one of the best players in the world today.

I was hoping he would stay on the pitch until the end, then lose. Although I don't really want the French to win.

I think it probably helped them in the end not relying on one superstar. Well done the Port!

I haven't watched any football. But from what I gather there was a moth, and that was the best bit.

I predict Ronaldo Moth memes will be trending before long.

There were lots of moths. They were flying in front of the camera incessantly. Then one perched on Ronaldo's cheek as he sat there sobbing.

Aww, it was trying to help.

Celtic beaten by Gibraltarian part-timers!

Looking at today's transfers.

Colin Doyle [Blackpool - Bradford] £1

Looks like Leicester are losing their stars already..

Kante on his way to Chelsea and news coming in that Mahrez is looking to leave.

Sadly, I'm not sure it's possible to build a footballing dynasty these days unless you're backed by megabucks.
