    Zlatan is the man

    Much has been written about Zlatan Ibrahimovic following his virtuoso performance against England last week where he scored all four of Sweden’s goals. And as his fourth goal revealed rather spectacularly he can indeed play a bit.

    Ibrahimovic may not be the most likeable of players but he certainly is entertaining, both on and off the pitch.

    Here is a selection of his best and most ludicrous quotes from recent years.

    Whilst looking for a place to live during his switch to French giants PSG

    “We are looking for an apartment in Paris. If we don’t find anything then I’ll probably just buy the hotel”

    His response when a female journalist questioned the gay rumours surrounding him and Gerard Pique

    “Come to my house and you’ll see if I’m gay. And bring your sister”

    After being asked to undertake a trial at Arsenal as a 19 year old

    “Zlatan doesn’t do auditions”

    After being asked what he had bought his wife for her birthday

    “Nothing. She already has Zlatan”

    On being injured

    “An injured Zlatan is a pretty serious thing for any team”

    On playing against Liverpool defender Stephane Henchoz

    “First I went left, he did too. Then I went right, and he did too. Then I went left again and he went to buy a hot dog”

    When asked to describe his style of play

    “Swedish style? No”

    “Yugoslavian style? Of course not”

    “It has to be Zlatan style”

    Say what you like about the man but you can’t deny he knows how to provide a good quote!
