They both play for Lazio so fairly big deal. Lots of Nazi ultras within Lazio's fan base.

As long as they're not tories then it's OK by me.

I guess what I mean is I don't give a crap about what people choose to do in their personal life.

Obviously it's a big deal for them to come out.

Robbie Rogers came out in 2013.

Anyway are they any good? We have many holes to fill. Oh hang on....

Can they play at the back?

I wonder how well they handle long balls.

God this has gone horribly wrong.

What happened to that story about some England player coming out as gay at the end of this season or last ? Remember it was all over the internets. I'm guessing it was all nonsense.

I think that was in the Express or the Mail so just made up essentially.

Good on them if true but they're not the first, that was Robbie Rogers.

The one that came from The S*n? Was meant to be Clyne.

In fairness though, nobody should be arsed anyway, it's 2017 sexuality shouldn't be a shock to anybody.

Just wait until one of them splits the defence for the other to slot home...

As long as they ain't Kopites I don't give a stuff.

Good luck to them. We know there are loads out there in football and I welcome the day when they all feel comfortable enough not to have to hide it for fear of abuse from idiots.
