16/01/2016 MOTD Kickabout

Now, if today's show is half as exciting as the Premier League's

midweek matches, then you are in for a treat.

I try my hand, or should that be foot, at one of the UK's

Chelsea fan Dan Wright, AKA Mr Nun, from comedy drama 4 O'clock Club,

And, as always, we have all the biggest

names and the latest news, including a certain little maestro

who has had to extend his trophy cabinet again.

But first, it's time to take a look at our

Newcastle have signed Jonjo Shelvey from Swansea,

While Bournemouth have added strikers Benik Afobe and Lewis

We also love a good rumour, and they don't come much better

than the likes of Goetze, Lavezzi and Kroos, who have

all been linked with Premier League moves.

All three of those were in the last World Cup final.

After a heroic draw against Bolton last weekend,

our new favourite underdog, the Spitfires of Eastleigh,

were in the hat for this week's fourth round

Should they manage to win the replay, they will face

the biggest and best club in the whole world,

or at least West Yorkshire, my team, Leeds.

Imagine if you had the chance to vote for

Well, not in Kazakhstan, where fans will get the chance to do

In midweek, we were treated to a full round of Premier League

matches, with goals flowing in everywhere.

It was so fast and frenetic, there was only one way

So let's take a look at how that leaves the top of the table.

Everyone keeps saying Leicester can't stay there,

Wouldn't it be amazing if Ranieri's men could lift the trophy?

And, in my opinion, Arsenal and City have by far the best

squads, but neither team has taken this season by the scruff

OK, time now to meet today's guests, and lucky it is a Saturday,

otherwise he would be taking PE lessons.

Grab the ball, get on the court and luck lively.

Grab the ball, get on the court and look lively.

You're boys, you don't need lessons in how

Dan, it is great to have you on the show.

You play a PE teacher in 4 O'clock Club.

You are quite sedentary, you are sitting down a lot

Often I'm having a go at all the kids, I'm really putting

them through their paces, but I'm not a nice person,

So if you were to liken yourself to a Premier League manager,

are you the stand-off approach, like a van Gaal

or are you more animated like a Jurgen Klopp.

Yes, like a Klopp or Mourinho towards the end, I'm angry.

We've got series five to look forward to.

Yes, it is coming out in a couple of weeks.

It is getting really competitive now between my character

I never thought I would say it like that.

But we are going to win the Champions League.

No one fears us in the Champions League, and we win it.

What are your thoughts on that managerial merry-go-round?

Well, I understand why they brought in Hiddink,

a few years ago he came in for six months and did really

well and settled the players, he is a nice people person.

I didn't want Mourinho to leave, but when you

have that much failure in such a short space of time,

I can understand why they did let him go.

When I look into the future in a few years' time,

the only manager I can see winning the league with us again

is Mourinho, so it is a difficult one.

Hang on, you can look into the future?

When are Leeds going to get back into the Premier

There's been a lot of underperforming players,

but Willian has been the one kind of real

Yes, he is full of life, he is creative,

Without those goals, we would be bottom.

Well, you will be pleased to know he's

We've been chatting to him exclusively, so set your timer

when you can see that interview in full.

So, Dan, you play an on-screen PE teacher.

You must have experienced some weird and wonderful

sports through that, but have you ever heard footgolf?

I didn't know much about it either, so I decked

myself out in some plus fours I own, quite a few, obviously,

and headed to Milton Keynes to find out more.

I'm here with British footgolf's hottest property at the moment,

Ben Clarke, who is going to give me a crash course on the course.

Footgolf sounds to me like someone has just taken football,

It is football on a golf course, but going along with the same rules

of golf, so getting the ball in the hole in the least

I tell you what, it is a lovely day for it, and what's great about

footgolf is it doesn't matter how good you are at

football or golf, it is a brand new sport.

Charlie, you are the captain of your football team, aren't you?

I'm finding it a bit of a learning curve because sometimes I take a lot

That was Jack just having a go at the no luck shot.

Maybe keep your eye on the ball in the future,

How do you think professional footballers might do

Do you think anyone would be really good at this.

Who do you think would be his partner

Oh, no, that's just gone terribly wrong.

For a minute there, I thought that was going in.

And since filming, he's been out in Argentina

Congratulations to Team UK for finishing in fourth place,

and to Ben himself, who finished fifth best

Now it is quiz time, and we are staying on the theme

So, what I want to know is, which of these three mashed up

sports is the real one, and which two we just made up.

So it is running round an athletics track

You are running up, you put your pole in the little

hole bit, bounce over the big bar, but rather than go on to a crash

Maybe you're in some trunks, maybe you're going with a full

Picture that, and I'll tell you about the

Instead of your classic cricket stumps, you've got ten bowling pins

and you use a full-size bowling ball, but a soft one.

Is someone ahead of the pins trying to save them?

So can you believe that one of those is

How would you go about joggling, do you think?

On keeping fit, I like it, but I think you would bump

into people, so I don't think it is real.

This sounds fun, because people could seriously bellyflop

Well, I can reveal that the real sport on there is actually a,

So this is world record holder Matt Feldman.

I mean, he can run at speed whilst juggling.

He has obviously been doing this a long time.

I think we can both agree that pole diving would probably

And maybe it is up to us to make that a real sport.

Yes, exactly, I will see you the pool in ten,

Dan, thank you for coming on the show, it's

We look forward to the new series of the 4 O'clock Club, coming soon.

And obviously us two going pole diving, yes?

OK, if you at home can think of any sport you'd like to combine,

swim-rugby may be, badlethics, that's badminton whilst doing

athletics in case you weren't keeping up, then

head to our website and join in the conservation.

There's also quizzes, dream teams and videos to keep

you entertained, plus you can use our

video uploader to send us your skills.

What I love about these clips is that Scottish viewer,

Aidan, isn't content just pulling off skills in the comfort

He can also deliver the goods when it matters on the pitch.

Cracking stuff, thanks for sending those in,

Now, the second viewer to send us his skills looks quite

And he claims to now have the longest throw in football.

On Monday, Lionel Messi was named the winner of the Ballon d'Or

for a record fifth time, and one other thing to tell

you about which is awesome for a starter like me,

the Ballon d'Or is voted for by international

And you also get to find out who voted for who and do a bit

No surprises that Ronaldo and Messi didn't vote for each

Ronaldo voted for club colleagues, Benzema, James and Bale.

Meanwhile, Messi picked team-mates Neymar, Suarez and playmaker

See if you can spot the themes starting to emerge there.

But the biggest snub had to be from Pogba, who didn't vote for his

brother. Maybe he isn't a fan of his fashion sense. Before we go, let's

take a look at this weekend's action. Here are the pictures.

Tottenham versus Sunderland looks good. In the evening fixture, Aston

Villa against Leicester, it is bottom against top, anything could

happen. Moving on to Sunday, the real standout game has got to beat

Liverpool against Manchester United. Historically, these two should be up

there at the top of the league, but this season is proving a struggle.

They both have world-class players and there are some intriguing mash

ups, as I'm about to improve. These are two strikers are leading the way

for their clubs, big-money signings, but both really yet to find their

feet and probably a bit lacking in confidence and goals. He will edge

it on the day? I think that Benteke scored a good girl in earlier on, so

I have two back in. It is now hello to the goalkeepers. Both have been

in the press, the Liverpool goalkeeper for his shaky

performances. The Manchester medical giver didn't go to real Madrid, and

he will face a barrage from Benteke and the rest of the Liverpool front

line. I think Liverpool could come with a 2-1 win, but don't quote me

on that, because football is football. The habits and cracking

encounters over the years, memorable games. -- there have been. Until

next week, goodbye. This is still the one they want to

win above others. Steven Gerard, 1-0 to Liverpool. Manchester United have

won it at Anfield. Girl for Liverpool. Liverpool lead. And

storage scores.
