    While Tokyo 2020 comes to a climactic end, Gareth Bale and Phil Foden have both had disastrous pre-seasons.

    SOCCER: Ironically, 50 is also the number of minutes Gareth Bale will likely play this season.

    SOCCER: Maybe 50 was slightly generous...

    SOCCER: It seems Phil Foden has gone for the Neapolitan ice-cream look. Anyone else eager for Graeme Souness' thoughts?

    OLYMPICS: Deliberate or a genuine accident? It certainly doesn't look great but we can't help but admire the execution of it all.

    OLYMPICS: Dani Alves was definitely that kid on sports day that won every event - well I won the participation award so who's the real winner Dani?

    OLYMPICS: With Tokyo 2020 now all wrapped up, Johnny Weir can finally let his hair down.

    SOCCER: I wonder if he'll go straight into their 'A team' - sorry I was just Thinking Out Loud, it's one of my many Bad Habits.

    BOXING: Alen Babic may fight heavyweights in the ring, but outside the ring he's punching well above his weight.
