Noel Gallagher loves one Man City player so much, he would let him have sex with his wife

Charming, as ever

I love Tayto crisps but there is no way Mr Tayto is coming near my missus.

Noel Gallagher made an appearance on NBC’s Men in Blazers podcast this week and it was entertaining as ever.

The former Oasis guitarist, and current High Flying Birds frontman, christened Liverpool’s Brendan Rodgers ‘The Brodge’ on Match of the Day 2 recently. This time, he produced another memorable sound-bite.

A fervent Manchester City fan, Gallagher listed his favourite players as Sergio Aguero, David Silva and Yaya Toure. Silva, the Spanish midfielder, is the musician’s favourite.

Addressing his love of the midfield maestro, Gallagher remarked, ‘I’d let him have sex with my wife.’

To further endear himself to the red side of Manchester, he labelled United’s Spanish midfielder Juan Mata as ‘a f***ing tw*t’. [Clarification: The second word is not ‘twit’]

Meanwhile, Patrice Evra praised the goal-scoring, all-action contribution of Juventus team-mate Carlos Tevez in his side’s 2-1 Champions League semi-final win over Real Madrid.

Evra commented, ‘Carlos Tevez like myself is United blood.’

Not so sure what United fans would say about that.
