Liverpool's Kolo Toure has been the Premier League's laughing stock for some time now, but last night he took his comedy value to a completely new level.

Firstly, he sliced a clearance in to his own net to give Fulham a 1-0 lead. Then he somehow managed to take out referee Phil Dowd in what has to be the most bizarre incident seen on a football pitch for some time.

In the words of Miley Cyrus, he came in like a wrecking ball...
