Somebody needs to sit Paul Green down and make him watch this over and over again

It might not be the prettiest way of keeping Zlatan quiet, but we guarantee you it’ll be effective.

HOW DO YOU solve a problem like Zlatan Ibrahimovic?

Simple. Just follow Roy Keane’s lead.

It looks like Paul Green will be tasked with keeping Sweden’s star man quiet in the Friends Arena tonight so before he laces up his boots, somebody needs to sit him down and make him watch this clip over and over again.

Surely this is what “video analysis” is all about?

    @Cathal, I agree 100%. I was at both games and McAteer’s goal was a classic
    The Mayo comeback was incredible …..and I’m a Dub!.

    One bad memory I have of the Dutch game was when Hassellbank came on as a sub the monkey chants started and some idiot even threw a banana onto the field. I was disgusted and the dope that threw that fruit onto the field was lucky I wasn’t standing near him. Yes, I am a Chelsea supporter also.

    The Dutch would have won if the ball ran evenly across the surface. Rugby pitch suited Ireland. Always remember Kluivert’s early miss.
