The best football posts on social media from the past week, featuring Grimsby’s win over Man Utd, Sergio Ramos starts a new career, and Spurs get one over Chelsea.
Just when you think things couldn’t get worse for Man Utd, they suffered the indignity of losing to Grimsby Town in the League Cup, their first ever defeat to a fourth tier side.

Ruben Amorim became an instant meme after he was spotted playing with magnets on his mini tactics board when they were two goals down in the second half.

The manager and the club have become the laughing stock of English football.

It’s certainly looking like another dire season for the Red Devils.
Imagine only having the FA cup left to play for on Wednesday the 27th August 2025

Sergio Ramos is… becoming a music artist? I didn’t have that on my bingo card for 2025.
It’s fair to say that his first single is, erm, not for everyone.

We were all waiting on Spurs to be gazumped yet again in the transfer window.
Simons is at the Spurs training ground hotel and will spend a restful night in the 6 star facilities in readiness for his medical at Chelsea tomorrow.

But they were the ones doing the gazumping, beating Chelsea to Xavi Simons!

They will be talking about this transfer window down in Tottenham for years.
‘You’re lovely, but did you hear about the 25/26 Transfer Window Spurs had? Well one player got held hostage, one rang his mum up & cried but we nicked Simons off Chels when they were asleep, signed Kudus/Palhinha & won the f*cking CL. Love your eyes btw’ pic.twitter.com/itfUPWMxWs
