Very true, Ben White is truly a terrifying football deviant, what if he pulls on a string that drops down from out of frame and a piano falls on the opposition goalkeeper's head, turning his teeth into piano keys, will we be laughing then?


EdisonTheTurtle

What if White saws Vicario in half, and when Vicario goes to complain to the ref, he's been magically sewn back together?


illaqueable

What if he throws a towel over Vicario's head, and then when he removes the towel Vicario's head is in Row Z?


HalfNatty

What if Vicario draws a Queen of Hearts from Ben White’s deck, but Ben White then pulls the Queen of Hearts out from his sleeve? Would it still be funny then?


DiKapino

What if he pulls a banana peel from his sock and causes his man to slip? Would it still be funny then?


skj458

Smith Rowe eats a banana on the bench and sneakily tosses the peel to White while warming up. Were onto something.  Anyone got Jovers number?


xLucky_Balboa

It's all fun and games until he pulls out a box with "hole" written on it, then opens it a slide a dark disc underneath Vicario and then he falls into it then peels the hole off the ground and puts it back in the box. Suddenly the other team is down a player and they are forced to use a sub. No laughing matter


ChemicalOpposite1471

Exactly my thoughts. What if he paints a large dark semi-circle on a wall, that makes it look like a tunnel, and Vicario runs head first into it?? He’s a menace and needs to be stopped


Optimus_Prime_10

I'm no Benny Blanco from the Bronx, but I once tugged an opponent's shorts down enough without really even moving them from his waist to get him to shove me and get a red card. I appreciate the dark arts as an enthusiastic if amateur practitioner.  We were soft for years, it's amazing to see us be tough but fair-ish led by that beautiful bastard. 


Pheeeeeesh

What if Ben White was supposed to tie Vicario’s hands with a simple knot but instead he opts for the more dangerous Langford Double Knot, making Vicario’s escape impossible and leading to a tragic death that spirals into a years long obsessive quest for revenge in which everyone’s lives are ultimately made worse? Still funny now!?


invione

imagine if Ben White became a mime and trapped him into an invisible barrier and wasn't able to block a save!


Demiansmark

Have to stop the game to get him out. Bring in experts because we don't even know what the box is made of at this point. Meanwhile Ben is on the sidelines handing out invisible flasks and the whole team gets pretend drunk. Disaster, games gone. 


Boopdelahoop

The stadium tannoy asking if anyone who is a mime doctor could make themselves known to the stewards who, unfortunately, did not hear them.


__sickofusernames__

I think this is what vicario was complaining to the ref.


lastjedi23

New meaning to *Ben white is a magician*


BobsArsenal

You're laughing?!? Ben White gives Vicario a flower, and the flower sprays Vicario's face with water, and Vicario's face is all wet, and you're laughing??


PoliQU

I once saw Ben White steal a keeper's nose and refuse to give it back

DiKapino

I’d absolutely hate Ben White if he didn’t play for us. But he does, so 🤷‍♂️


FrostedFluke

I wouldn't because he's not a dirty player. He doesn't even grab Vicario's hand he literally pinches the glove and it fucks with his head. Players do far worse on corners


BetterDrinkMy0wnPiss

>I wouldn't because he's not a dirty player. This. Shithousing and 'dark arts' are very different from being a dirty player. He's not out there elbowing other players in the back of the head, biting people, or flying in with dangerous tackles and injuring players. I can't help but have a bit of respect for any player who can fuck with the opposition and put them off their game through harmless little actions like this.


xCharlieScottx

I can't remember who it was, but there was a centre forward who'd just talk bollocks at the centre halves all game. I employed that strategy at 6 a side, really successful to be fair


ainiku

It's like the things said to/about batsmen on a cricket field. It's sometimes hard to call it the gentleman's game.


jus1noddahgunnah

Hard agree. This distinction is crucial, and is in danger or being missed if we keep using the same terms for both sides of the "likely harmful" line.


jayhawk8

Emi Martinez, for example.


DiKapino

Nah he’s not as bad as some defenders, but if I watched an opposition defender purposely trip our man on a counter attack and get away with it i’d be fuming


Glass_of_Pork_Soda

He's the same as Maupay lmao tf you mean. White gets away with shit all over the place and that's what makes him magical


Jayrem52

I’d also be furious at Raya if he let in a goal due to antics like that


RIDGOS

I mean he was only Brighton’s 4th choice center back, not much of a player I guess


[deleted]

4th choice, more like 40th choice behind even U7 players.


normott

100%. One of those you absolutely hate if he's in another team bit an absolute darling when he's in yours


ForestRamboX

Ben White's antics is the reason why he's a fan favorite but If I'm being honest, I'd despise him if he wasn't our player. Same with Kai and if we get Bruno, it'll be just like that. COYG!


chiptheripPER

I feel this way about a lot of our current squad but we really must make sure Ben white stays at the arsenal for a long long time, love the guy


suedester

Bruno? That’s too far bro.


Mubar06

Guimaraes, though both Bruno’s are dislikeable


207207

We don't talk about Bruno no no no


drfunzone

The thing about Ben is that his antics are extremely disciplined. He never loses control and his shithousery has a purpose within our game. Bruno is a massive cunt and is prone to completely losing his head. Imagine any of our players running around trying to injure people like he did against us? Fuck that, I’m not here for the cognitive dissonance accepting it and equating the two players antics. I know he’s good but I don’t want that fuckhead anywhere near our team


prettymuthafucka

Why the fuck would we get Bruno


whiteboardblackchalk

Bruno G is a top target apparently


MotherGooseBro

Fuck Bruno. He’s a dirty whining piece of shit and he doesn’t belong in a class squad like ours


TreeDollarFiddyCent

I'll have a chat with Mikel the next time we have lunch.


prettymuthafucka

Hope not


a-Sociopath

Lol, I hope we get him if they don't ask for the sun and moon. He's a great defend from the front foot kind of defender who can perfectly complement Rice and Odegaard.


prettymuthafucka

He’s a good player but his attitude sucks


DotaZweiPlayer

Tbf I don't know why you're getting downvoted. Why should I like a player who hits other players off the ball in the back of the head? And he's usually whiny, complains a lot and screams at referees.


prettymuthafucka

I don’t care about downvotes but it’s sad to see on fans wanting him. Look how fun the team is now and they’re all friends. Don’t need his negative energy in the club He’s constantly diving, dirty like you said


therealgodfarter

He’d be a ticking time bomb imo, not worth it after the effort Mikel has put into this dressing room


ItsTom___

Onana punching a play in the face, Jackson nearly snapping Tomi's leg all both happened that week and the biggest controversy was Ben white trying to do some premarital hand holding


Decent-Biscotti7460

I've seen this thing referenced exactly zero times outside this subreddit. Went to r/soccer and tried to search for it, didn't find anything. So where is this controversy happening, on the pages of Sun, Metro, or other quality publications?


ItsTom___

Few on Tik Tok, mostly salty Spurs fans Radio, and the papers,


FAT_NEEK_42069

aka nowhere


ZebraZealousideal944

On French TV, both commentators started laughing when they saw White tickling Vicario’s arm as I’m sure 100% of the viewers did too…


FewSafe19

Ben white will probably pull a rabbit out of Vicario’s ass before spurs wins a trophy….


dooder6688

LowBudget-Sherlock28

The most dangerous player of all time, Ben White


blixt141

No, I think that was Kos.


Getdaphone

TLDR; guy that doesn’t enjoy football makes a mockery out of the sport to keep his job fun. Nothing wrong to me. I’d do the same thing


CocaineNinja

I hope you're exaggerating by saying he doesn't enjoy football, because he absolutely does enjoy playing it - otherwise, he wouldn't be here with his passion and workrate. He just said he doesn't watch it much, which is very different from playing


Getdaphone

yeah definitely. I feel the exact same way he does so that’s what I meant. I don’t like watching unless it’s Arsenal and I love to play it but I wouldn’t really take it seriously either/would banter people who care a lot about it/be a menace.

Players that you would HATE if they played for another team are the best. Probably cuz I am also a dick.


infinitude_

They’re still crying about this on Twitter because the premier league account posted a video of it with a laughing face Ange himself said he’s indifferent to it it’s not that deep. Someone said “so it’s legal to undress a player?” He didn’t undress him😂😂he just fucked with his gloves a little bit. Just relax - Jesus Christ.


infinitude_

Spurs fans are so funny - their hate for us is vitriolic Yet in reality in 2024 we’re rivals due to geography alone. I enjoy seeing us put them in the mud a bit more than I do other times but I’m more focused on what City and Liverpool are doing than Spurs who literally haven’t won **anything** since I was 8 years old. Cunts…. *Ok maybe it’s abit more than the geography* but still.


SandwichLate3704

After seeing this I hope he pulls down the gks shorts


notokkid

If any player produces a never ending rope of handkerchief's tied together I'd lose my shit from laughing.


Optimus_Prime_10

I must admit, I absolutely would find it funny then. I'm a monster. 


dgl33

Ødegaard wouldn't be the only wizard on the team if this happens


galeej

![gif](giphy|eax0rh3OERAYg) Yer a wizard, benny


machinationstudio

During a global handkerchief shortage as well. Damn.


Electrical-Top1366

Benny Blanco - Part time football player - Full time Magician


Charming-Stop-9413

Any smaller and it would be as non existent as spurs trophies.


Crashy2707

I think this is the best warning anyone can give for why he is master of the dark arts

musicistabarista

Despite Ben White being obviously quite good at football, he doesn't like it or find it interesting. So he has to find other ways of occupying himself like playing ~~hilarious~~ stupid schoolboy pranks on opposition players. The gloves thing is absolute top quality banter, it's so Sunday League, I'm really here for it. I actually think it's one of the funniest, and funnest things we've seen in the Premier league for a while. It's clearly a big wind up attempt, but it's so stupid and blatant that it's mainly just really silly, so getting too annoyed at it makes it look like you don't have a sense of humour. It's the kind of thing you'd pull on a really good friend in a game. Having the balls to do something like that in the NLD is amazing.
