If Fulham's Danny Murphy needs calming down after yesterday's events at Old Trafford, he can always turn to his yoga-teaching, hippy half-brother for help.
Based in the Fulham midfielder's native Chester, Murphy junior has changed his name to Luos... because it is 'soul' spelt backwards!

David Brent of the Week
Third place – Roy Hodgson: “One could say what we have done is beyond our dreams. But you’d have to be a dreamer in the first place to get beyond your dreams and I’ve never been a dreamer. And if I have been I don’t admit to it.”
Second place – Dimitar Berbatov: “I am the dog you love to hate, because I am a big success. I am too high up even to see you.”
Hands-down winner – Phil Brown: “Any regrets? Loads. But I don’t drink pints of hindsight, I drink pints of Guinness.”
