13 things we loved this weekend: Gervinho, Sterling, Hazard, Elneny
While all eyes were on Manchester United vs Arsenal in the Premier League this weekend, former Gunners flop Gervinho stole the show in Serie A with a superb display at the San Siro.
Elsewhere, Mats Hummels made the case for winding down his career as a playmaker and Matheus Cunha continues to provide lots of fun in the Bundesliga.
We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.
Micah Richards
The more we see of Richards these days, the more we absolutely love him.
Lockdown 2 is gonna cause more deaths through depression, loneliness and financial stress. Leeds and Manchester have been nothing but great to me growing up so Iām gonna donate 50k! 25k each to two different charities/businesses in the two areas which I feel need it the most!

Mo Elneny
A ridiculous effort in the 91st minute, made all the better by Victor Lindelof’s head nearly falling off.

Gervinho
Just when you think 2020 couldn’t get any weirder, Gervinho scores a brace at the San Siro, including this beauty.

Morecambe
Fair play to the goalkeeper for not immediately having a breakdown on the spot once the ball goes over his head. That is undoubtedly what we would have done.
Phil Foden
Crossbar challenge? Piece of piss, mate.
I started taking this clip just for the music and then @PhilFoden did this….

Trent Alexander-Arnold
It’s hard to argue with that.
