15 things we loved this weekend: Werner, Keita, Messi, De Bruyne

Europe’s major leagues may have had a week off due to the international break, but there was still plenty of exciting action around the world.

Chelsea’s Timo Werner maintained his excellent goalscoring form, while Lionel Messi gave us yet another reminder of his genius.

We’ve rounded up the best of the action on and off the pitch.

Arturo Vidal

Even by Vidal’s high standards, this is impressive.

Memphis Depay

The poor defender looks so confused.

Kevin de Bruyne

Kevin De Bruyne makes everything look so easy.

Sadio Mane

Liverpool fans will be just be relieved that he’s not injured.

Naby Keita

There’s no stopping those.

Eduoard Mendy

Mendy is enjoying a brilliant start to the season.

Timo Werner

He’s really hitting top form.

Weston McKennie

We can’t think of anything worse.

Billy Gilmour

We don’t know what we were expecting but it wasn’t this.

This goalkeeper

Better safe than sorry.

And this goalkeeper

Just wait until the end…

Scotland

Now, this looks like a lot of fun.

Lionel Messi

After all this time, Messi still manages to surprise us.

Sierra Leone

We’re getting Arsenal v Newcastle flashbacks.

Tobin Heath

What a hit.
