IF YOU HAD to pick one footballing task that the average fan could undertake with a degree of competency, you would probably choose taking a corner. The ball is stationary and you just have to direct it into the box. Not too hard, right?
Well, it proved to be a very arduous chore for Marseille’s Dimitri Payet, who got the trajectory of his cross horribly wrong in his side’s 1-0 win over Guingamp tonight .

Quite frankly, I’m speechless. That is without doubt, the single biggest example of workplace incompetence in the last week that didn’t involve someone surnamed either Mackay or Moody.
Payet should get on the phone to Wayne Rooney and discuss how the Manchester United forward recovered after his very own “cornergate” during the World Cup.
