Russian Premier League champions celebrate title with extraordinary team photo

They say a picture speaks one thousand words, but this just left us dumbfounded…

Former Chelsea and Tottenham manager Andre Villas-Boas led his Zenit St Petersburg side to the Russian title, and they celebrated with one of the stranger team photos we’ve seen.

We’re not sure what the best part of it is, but there are a few contenders:

* The ambassadorial conversation in the bottom right, which looks like something straight out of a Ferrero Rocher advert

*Javi Garcia’s knee-high white socks, which might even be match-worn

*Villas-Boas himself, looking down at his tactics sheet as if to say “job well done”

We’re trying to imagine what Zenit will come up with if they ever win the Champions League
