10@10: Ji-Sung Sparkler and other footballers as fireworks - Friday fun
Oooh! Aaah! Oh... No, not a running commentary of the last 15 minutes of Liverpool's Champions League draw with Lyon, but rather the universal signifier that bonfire night was upon us once more.
Yes, it's that time of year when people stand around in freezing cold parks watching a few expensive foreign imports light up the surroundings for a few seconds before fading into nothingness.
And no, we're still not talking about Liverpool.
To celebrate, we asked MirrorFootball's Twitter followers to come up with footballers who sound a bit like fireworks. Here's the best..
1) Gabriel Ag-bonfire-lahore
2) Ji-Sung Sparkler
3) Roman 'candle' Pavlyuchenko
4) Ronnie Catherine Wheel-an
5) Diniyar Bilya-letafireworkoff
6) Just Fountain-e
7) Kenny Jacket-potato
8) Edwin van gunpowder Sar
9) Nicky Banger
10) Willie 'Fatty' 'Guy' Foulkes
