Forget Fulham vs Spurs… Let’s talk about Dimitar Berbatov’s eyes

The biggest story of the first half.

JOE

Tottenham Hotspur faced Fulham on Sunday afternoon in the FA Cup Fifth Round…

But let’s face it, you’re not really here for that, are you? Nope, of course you’re not.You’ve already read the headline, and you know damn well that what follows has very little to do with the actual football being played at Craven Cottage.

So, without further ado, let’s talk Dimitar Berbatov.

Having represented Spurs and Fulham during his time in England, the Bulgarian was the perfect guest pundit for the BBC’s live coverage of the game.

Naturally, viewers were delighted by the sight of the handsome, porcelain-skinned Bulgarian, and after a few seconds of him appearing on our screens, Twitter was mesmerised by his eyes… his beautiful, beautiful eyes.

Most of the tweets simply commented on how goddamn lovely they  were…

Even his immaculate eyelashes were getting a mention.

Whereas others were more intrigued by why his eyes were looking so exceptional…

Either way, we’re sure you’ll agree that all of our lives were a better place for seeing them.

Now off you go, pretending to be more interested in the football.
