The best football posts on social media from the past week.
On the day that Liverpool clinched the Premier League title, one cheeky Everton fan duped Liverpool supporters into buying blue flares.
Still doesn’t change the fact Liverpool are champions, mind.
It was but a mere blot on a momentous day for Liverpool as they smashed Spurs at Anfield.
And when Mo Salah put the game beyond all reasonable doubt with his second-half goal, he grabbed a phone from the Kop for an iconic selfie.
Surely no one needs clarifying on what person was being referred to here…
Actually, forget I ever said that.
The death of the Pope coincided with Avellino’s promotion to Serie A – a surprisingly common occurrence it turns out.
The Vatican needs a safe pair of hands to guide them through the rest of the season.
No list of potential successors would be complete without Big Sam. Pope Allardyce has a nice ring to it.
But we all know there’s only one man for the job.
Hold on, everyone.
There’s only one holy figure recognised in Newcastle.

The Jamie Vardy party is over, folks.

It’s a shame he couldn’t a barn door for Leicester City in the second half of the season, though.
Speaking of players who can’t find the net, Cole Palmer is going to work hard to beat the one season wonder allegations next year.
Wrexham secured a third successive promotion this weekend.
Real Madrid may have lost the Copa del Rey final to Barcelona, but Kylian Mbappe finally scored from a direct free kick! The French superstar has not only ended his long drought, but ended the social media career of one Twitter account.
It’s a good feeling.
No such thing as home comforts for Spurs or Ange Postecoglou.
Lee Trundle’s still got it.
It didn’t take long for West Ham to break Graham Potter.
Well, this is awkward.
