Dear Mr Ibrahimovic, sorry we ever doubted you

In a heartfelt letter to Zlatan, Goal.com apologises on behalf of anation for ever questioning the Sweden star's talent following hisfour-goal trouncing of England

Dear Mr. Ibrahimovic,

You have convinced a nation. We, the English, opined that you were an undoubtedly gifted but utterly self-indulgent demigod, one worthy of a pat on the back and a slap on the ponytail in equal measure. As our fans postulated on Wednesday night, you were simply a s**t Andy Carroll in appearance and in execution.

We now accept that to bea vicious slur. Courtesy ofthat age-old journalistic statute, that which decrees unless we saw it happen, it never happened, we have until now provided a somewhat unfair summation of your talents.

You must understand, you see, that the English Premier League represents the epicentre of the known universe. Ifyou recall those heathensfrom Barcelona, those that accepted the beauty of another before your splendour, then you mustaccept our rationale! Should we verify the efficacy of an outsider, we weaken the veracity of our fabled Premier League. At least, that is how it is written.

But now, now we must abide by the laws of an alternate universe whereIbrahimovic becomes part of the building-blockof football life. Your four goals against our brave English heroes have transformed the psychological make-up ofmodern (English) football.read more:
