The Tweet Proving Arda Turan Just Made His Dream Come True

It’s gotta feel good to be Arda Turan right now, sure, you are not going to be able to play for your new club, Barcelona, until January, but once you do you will get to be a part of stuff like this:

Wesley Sneijder Is A Legend That Half The World Doesn’t Know

AC Siena was beating Internazionale Milan 3-2 in 2010. Inter would go on to win the treble that year; beating Barcelona along the way with one of the most classic “Mourinho parks the bus” defensive efforts of all time.

In the lead up to Barcelona’s third goal, Nani was Manchester United’s first line of defense. It didn’t go well.
