PHOTO: SEE WHAT A KID DID TO HIS MUM AFTER BENDTNER SCORED.

LoL! This kind of bet is funnier and better than putting up a whole house and having your family members thrown out. So this acidic Nicklas Bendtner hater promised “toothpasting” his mum’s eyebrows whilst she’s asleep if Bendtner scored twice during Arsenal’s clash against Hull. He actually posted that on twitter.

And guess what, the striker proved him wrong. Trust football fans (mostly Arsenal fans) to call him out. You could tell the pain in Mitch Gordon’s tweet. “A PICTURE WILL BE UP WHEN SHE IS SLEEPING OKAY ITS ONLY 8 GIVE ME CHANCE”. He wrote this after he posted the picture, “As promised, fuck you bendtner”.

Lmaooooo

I just hope the kid is hale and hearty.

Can’t imagine the look on his mum’s face when she checked the mirror this morning.

He set the world record toduay during Lille’s game with Olympique Marseille, 13matches clean sheet is no jokes!
He has just surpassed PSG’s Italian goalkeeper, Salvatore Sirigu record (948 minutes without conceding in Ligue 1 between November 17, 2012 and February 8, 2013).
