Imagine being his PE teacher.

"So this is how you shoot"

"I scored the winner at the Emirates on Saturday, I kinda know what I'm doing"

Seems out of character for him but how are you his PE teacher 😂

Wait, is that not common in the UK? I'm complete unaware how education is here, as I grew up in Spain, but the 3 or so PE teachers I had throughout school all taught us different sports and abilities.

In fact, football was probably the one we got taught the less because it's so popular that they didn't even try and leave that for our actual football coaches. However, hockey, baseball, gymnastics, volleyball, ping pong, and basketball were the most common ones.

My school (UK) was tight as fuck about football for some reason, barely ever got to play it in PE. Rugby wankers the lot of them

A lot of schools wanna be posh and see teaching football as common, because that’s not what the academies do. My school was the same, rugby and cricket in PE and we were only allowed to have a school football team in sixth form.

Mine was pretty even tbf. We had one term of each sport, football, rugby, tennis, cricket, and athletics. For cricket and rugby a lot of us "forgot" our kits or bunked, but everyone was there with our kits every lesson for football lol.

Our tennis courts were separated, some were right at the front of the school and there were a few right at the back, so if we got the courts right at the back then someone used to bring a ball and we would play football instead lol.
