John Cena impersonates Liverpool fan in lesson on British culture
John Cena attempted his best impression of a Liverpudlian accent as he learned about some iconic British pop culture moments. The 46-year-old wrester and actor was educated during a BBC Radio 1 segment where they printed out text from these viral clips for Cena to read. He was then shown the actual clips which include our favourites such as Jackie Weaver and Ronnie Pickering. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter One of the moments that was also shown was impassioned Liverpool fan James Redmond who went viral for his post-match comments back in 2017 when the The Reds won 4-2 against Hoffenheim in a Champions League play-off. "No you see I'm talking facts here. I don't do ifs, buts and maybes, I do absolutes," Cena said, reading out Redmond's words. "And, you know like, if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle. But she doesn't so she's not. Do you know what I'm try to say." The clip is then played to Cena for him to understand the full context, and he even gives the Scouse accent a go as he mimicked Redmond by repeating: "Why you's laughing for?" and "I'm being serious!" @bbcradio1 we taught fast x’s john cena about jackie weaver and ronnie pickering… you’re welcome ? #johncena #jackieweaver #ronniepickering #britishcomedy Thoroughly impressed with Redmond, a smiling Cena said: "Kid's nine and he's that sharp. Razor wit. I don't have jokes like that when I was six. He added: "This kid's three. He shouldn't be able to talk." But that wasn't all as Cena also had a go at doing a Yorkshire accent when "I'm in my mum's car" viral Vine clip was played, Fans couldn't quite believe what they were seeing, as they shared their bewilderment in the comments. One person wrote: "I never thought i would ever see John Cena attempt a scouse accent." "Seeing Johns face absolutely transfixed on these iconic British memes is absolutely incredible." Someone else added: "Ngl his impressions are actually not bad." "I just want a whole account of John Cena doing an English accent," a fourth person commented. Perhaps this could be Cena's audition tape to star in a British film or comedy? Have your say in our news democracy.

Brighton’s top talents may move on before European challenge – Roberto De Zerbi
Roberto De Zerbi accepts that some of Brighton’s top talents may not be part of his Seagulls set-up when they take on Europe for the first time next season. Albion guaranteed themselves at least the Europa Conference League with Sunday’s 3-1 Premier League victory over Southampton, though sixth place and the Europa League are also all-but assured. What remains less certain are the futures of multiple men who helped make history at the Amex, with Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo among the names linked with summer transfers. De Zerbi said: “Now we have to organise, we have to build a new squad. We have to organise the new season. We have to finish before, OK, but then we have to organise and we have to build a new squad. “I think we don’t need too many players but we have to compete in the Europa League. We have to compete in the Premier League because it will be tougher for sure for us. “I think we will lose some big players, but it’s right, no? Because they deserve to play for other targets in another team, but we have to be ready to bring in other big players with the policy of the club. “We have to arrive ready to compete in four competitions.” According to some reports, World Cup winner Mac Allister, who joined Albion in January 2019 on a four-and-a-half-year deal, has already principally agreed a move to Liverpool. Brighton CEO Paul Barber, however, was quick to dismiss those rumours, telling talkSPORT: “If I lost sleep over every report that I read about one of our players doing that, then I wouldn’t be sleeping very much at all. “At the moment he’s focused on doing what he can for us in our final two games of the season. We’ve got a massive game here against Manchester City on Wednesday and then we go to Villa Park on Sunday to complete what has been a fantastic season for us. “I saw him down on the pitch looking very happy and obviously we’d love him to be here next season. “We know that there are going to be a lot of clubs, not just in this country but around Europe, around the world that are going to be wanting Alexis to play for them. “But at the moment he is wearing blue and white stripes and I’m delighted about that.” Southampton boss Ruben Selles was also looking ahead to his club’s future, though what happens to him after the conclusion of the campaign is unclear. Selles’ agreement also expires at the end of the season, with Swansea boss Russell Martin rumoured to replace him. The Spaniard handed academy prospects Kamari Doyle and Dom Ballard their league debuts in the relegated Saints’ penultimate Premier League contest, with just Liverpool at St Mary’s left to play. He said: “I’m looking ahead to what can I do if I’m here or not. And that’s why I can give our players that are coming from the academy all the way into the first team. “I can get players that are ready to go and perform for the first team and even if it’s some minutes today or against Liverpool, that is a big step for their careers and they just keep the door open for them.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Brooks Koepka makes Ryder Cup statement with US PGA Championship success Bad decisions and poor signings – where has it gone wrong for Leeds?
