Social Zone: Lionel Messi replaced at PSG, while Ronald Koeman is avoiding Luis Suarez's calls
Luis Suarez, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, La Liga
After losing his first game with PSG, Messi has been kicked out of the deadly trio for a pacey replacement, Koeman sent Suarez through to answerphone, and Rojo sees red in Argentina.
SOCCER: This is right up there with the time he dived in front of David Moyes in the Merseyside derby after accusations of simulation. Simply brilliant.
September 2020: Koeman calls Suarez to tell him he’s not in his plans at Barcelona. Atletico sign Suarez.

SOCCER: And, as a result it seems he's been thrown out of the famous attacking trio for some newcomer. Rumour has it that he's got some unmatchable pace mind.

SOCCER: Marcos Rojo was sent off. In a Boca Juniors vs River Plate match. In other news, grass is green.
Marcos Rojo sent off after 16 minutes in the Superclásico against River Plate. Of course, this tackle is a totally normal thing to do when you were booked two minutes before.pic.twitter.com/SAkaj91RLh

SOCCER: Elsewhere, Watford are at it again. That's now 17 managers in 10 years for the Hornets.
Watford have sacked manager Xisco Munoz after less than 10 months in charge.

SOCCER: Manchester United have a new super fan, but we're not too sure Khabib enjoyed what he saw at Old Trafford - it didn't take long for him to switch alliegances.
