Nine things we loved in Europe this week: Bale & Ronaldo, Buffon, Bendtner
Former Arsenal and Tottenham men have caught the eye in Europe this week, while Barcelona’s future appears in safe hands.
A host of football has been played across the continent this week, with Antoine Griezmann starring thanks to seven goals in his past two appearances.
We’ve compiled some of the best bits which might have passed you by over the last seven days.

Yes, he’s inconsistent. But when he can do this, who cares?

Even Barcelona’s kids are pulling off impossible comebacks.
Antoine Griezmann
He may have been heavily linked with a move to Barcelona, but Griezmann has not taken his eye off the ball for Atletico.

Gianluigi Buffon
We’ve not a clue what he’s trying to do here, but we don’t want him to start playing by the rules now.
