The striker's treble takes his tally to a staggering 22 goals in 26 games this season, with his blistering post-winter break form making him a tough one to ignore for the Three Lions squad.

Scott McTominay has branded Napoli's performance "unacceptable" after the Serie A champions failed to beat 10-man Copenhagen, leaving their Champions League hopes hanging by a thread.

Jude Bellingham said his celebration against Monaco was "a bit of a joke" after he scored in Real Madrid's crushing 6-1 victory on Tuesday night.

Luis Enrique has launched a furious tirade against the nature of the sport, labelling it "sh*tty football" after watching his Paris Saint-Germain side suffer a 2-1 defeat to Sporting Lisbon.

Arne Slot joked he would be losing his job at Liverpool to Xabi Alonso during a bizarre moment in a pre-match press conference ahead of his side's clash with Marseille in the Champions League. The Dutchman led the Reds to the Premier League title in his debut campaign at Anfield but things have been tougher in his second season. Alonso, meanwhile, recently left Real Madrid after struggling to implement his tactical ideology on the star-studded squad at the Bernabeu.

Mason Greenwood is preparing for arguably the most high-profile match of his Marseille career so far as Premier League champions Liverpool arrive on the south coast of France. But while the Champions League clash will be talked up as an audition for England's World Cup squad in some grubby corners of the internet, the reality is that the damage done to Greenwood's reputation in his homeland is irreparable - regardless of his exploits at Stade Velodrome.

Liverpool are in a mess all of their own making. The Reds knew that they were short on senior centre-backs last summer and had ample time to address the problem before the close of the transfer window - yet they waited until deadline day to finalise a move for Marc Guehi. So, when Crystal Palace pulled the plug on the deal at the 11th hour, Liverpool were left in the very, very precarious position of needing Ibrahima Konate to continue performing at a high level, Joe Gomez to stay fit and teenage summer signing Giovanni Leoni to make an immediate impact at Anfield.

The boos that greeted the full-time whistle at Anfield on Saturday were both loud and clear - albeit not to Arne Slot. "In my head," the Liverpool manager said, "it wasn't a boo." And maybe he's right. Maybe the visiting fans were saying 'Boo-urnley'?! Of course, this is no time for clumsy references or silly jokes. The situation at Liverpool is undeniably absurd (has a 12-game undefeated run ever been so poorly received?!), but it's no laughing matter as far as the supporters are concerned.

Police in Madeira are hunting a vandal who filmed himself setting fire to a bronze statue of Cristiano Ronaldo outside the CR7 Museum in Funchal.

Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney delivered a hilarious response when asked how the current Arsenal team would fare against one of the best sides assembled under Sir Alex Ferguson. The Red Devils outfit that won the Premier League and Champions League double in 2008 will go down in history as an all-time great side. And Rooney believes that the team he played in are streets ahead of Mikel Arteta's current one.
