    Onlooker Vincent Cassidy, 55, said: “The man was obviously a very fit and fast runner but the animal couldn’t be caught.
    “I thought the guy looked familiar. Then suddenly I said, ‘That’s Timo Werner’!
    “He kept going for over a mile all around the park, but the dog was always just out of reach.”
    The dog, called Pickles, was finally caught by wardens at Battersea Park, South West London, last Monday. It had an ID collar and was reunited with its owner.
    Werner played in Chelsea’s 3-0 Premier League win over Crystal Palace on Saturday, but drew a blank for Germany in their 2-0 defeat to England in the Euros.
    Vincent had a quick chat with Timo after his dog chase and quipped: “You should have been that lively at Wembley!”

    But he was full of admiration for the speedy Blues star, who was out with partner Julia Nagler, 23.
    He said: “Timo was incredibly gracious, kind and polite, as was his girlfriend.
    “It was brilliant of him to try and help. He’s had the best pre-season workout possible.”

    Dad stunned by hilarious blunder after he buys Harry Kane England shirt on eBay

    A POLITE footie dad who bought an England shirt on eBay was stunned when it arrived with “Kane Please 9” printed on the back.Richard Dexter wanted the kit to feature Three Lions skipper Harry Kane’s name and number.
    Richard Dexter was left stunned after a hilarious blunder when he ordered a football shirt for his daughter on eBay

    But his good manners proved an own goal as dimwit staff literally took him at his word.
    He unwrapped the away jersey for nine-year-old daughter Lily to find his “please” also included on the back.
    Richard, 37, said: “This was meant to soften the blow of losing the Euros final to Italy on penalties.
    “Lily was as gutted as us all. But Harry Kane was her favourite England player and I thought this would lift her spirits.
    “I went online and bought the shirt, before asking for Kane’s name on the back with the number 9. They say manners cost you nothing but in this case they have cost me £30.”

    Lily was initially too embarrassed to wear the shirt but now sees the funny side.
    Richard, of Hull, who works for a sports education trust, posted a snap of the blunder online.
    He said: “It’s good that we have been able to make people smile and we’ll definitely keep the shirt as a memento rather than returning it for a refund.”

    Other Twitter users shared their shirt printing blunders.
    Mark Worrall asked for “no name and just 7” but it came with “Just” on the back.
    And Guy Clubb said his shirt arrived with “N/A” after he declined the free printing.

    A source close to them said: “They have had death threats, which has petrified them.
    “They were on a night out after lockdown and obviously flattered someone like Wayne wanted to spend time with them. 
    “But they didn’t do anything wrong and don’t deserve the horrible response.”
    The pals, of Barrow, Cumbria, were in Manchester for a birthday.
     Snapchat model Tayler Ryan, Elise Melvin and Brooke Morgan, all 21, were invited by Rooney and his friends to his VIP booth at a nightclub before they all headed to the women’s hotel room last month.
    We revealed the party girls took a string of snaps including one showing the bleary-eyed Derby manager, 35, waving his arm in the air holding a glass of wine.
    Rooney, a dad of four with wife Coleen, later passed out in a chair so they started playing pranks, including one of them in a G-string jokingly baring her bum next to his head, with the caption “Mooney Rooney”.

    The former Man United ace complained to police about photos taken without his permission.
    Officers concluded no offences were committed.
    There is no suggestion any of the threats have been generated or encouraged by Rooney or anyone acting for him.

    Jack Grealish’s girlfriend Sasha Attwood has revealed she was sent 200 death threats a day during the Euros.
    Sasha first met £100million-rated Aston Villa star Jack at school in Solihull, West MidsCredit: Splash
    Sasha, who reunited with childhood sweetheart Grealish in June, revealed: “They said, ‘I hope you get cancer and die’ or ‘I hope your whole family dies’.
    “They say, ‘I hope the next time you’re in the car you crash it and die, I hope after Wembley you die’.”
    The model found herself bombarded with hate during the Euros while she was cheering on Jack, 25, and his Three Lions teammates.
    Speaking on her YouTube channel, she said: “I was receiving 200 death threats a day. I’m not exaggerating when I say that.
    “I had so many messages every single day. I still get them now, all day every day.”
    ‘I HOPE YOU GET CANCER AND DIE’
    Sasha — who was targeted by trolls on TikTok and Instagram — joined the debate around the accountability of social media firms as she labelled the platforms “toxic”.
    She said: “Things have obviously blown up over the Euros, but I never thought in a million years it would ever be this bad.
    “It just kind of blows my mind how nasty people can be for no reason whatsoever.
    “I’ve always been quite a strong person, I’ve always been very good at blocking out people’s opinions. But it’s on a whole other level.”
    She added: “It’s just crazy. It’s the nasty messages about my appearance, people’s opinions. What are you all doing? It’s embarrassing.
    I was receiving 200 death threats a day. I’m not exaggerating when I say that
    “You hear people talking about trolling, but I never realised how bad it actually was. The scary thing is, it’s young girls.
    “I’d go on these girls’ accounts who have sent me stuff and they’re 13 or 14. It’s so sad. I try to put it down to age but then I think when I was that age I never sent a message like that.
    “I think it’s so toxic, social media, and it’s really sad these generations have grown up thinking that it’s OK to say things like that.
    “Why are you doing it? Please ask yourself why.
    “If you’re one of those people who goes out of your way to make a fake account or to send a horrible ­message, wishing someone was dead or talking about their appearance, or talking about their personal life, why, what are you getting out of it?”
    ‘TOXIC’ PLATFORMS
    Sasha said: “It was a real s*** time, it was actually horrible, and I was feeling so anxious . . . it was not nice at all.
    “I didn’t ask for any of that, didn’t ask for anything to be put out there, but it’s out there, isn’t it, and I’m just going to continue to carry on as normal.”
    Sasha’s revelations come after Jack’s England teammates Marcus Rashford, 23, Jadon Sancho, 21, and Bukayo Saka, 19, were subjected to racist abuse on social media after missing penalties in the Euros final defeat to Italy last month.
    At the time Home Secretary Priti Patel said online giants “can no longer ignore some of the appalling, vile, racist, violent and hateful content that appear on their platforms”.

    The couple had kept their relationship under wraps, but she was spotted supporting him at Wembley during England’s Euro 2020 games.
    The model is not the only Euros wag to have received death threats.
    Spanish striker Alvaro Morata’s wife Alice claimed one social media user wished cancer on her family, while another allegedly told Alice her kids would have heart attacks.
    It came after Morata, 28, missed a penalty in his nation’s semi-final shootout defeat to Italy.
    Instagram have launched an investigation into Sasha’s comments, and say they are “committed” to keeping the platform safe for everyone.
    A spokeswoman added: “No one should have to experience abuse or harassment, and we don’t want it on Instagram.
    “We encourage people to turn on Hidden Words, a tool which means that no one has to see abuse in their comments or DMs.
    “We also strongly recommend that people report behaviour like this to the police, so we can support them in their investigations.”

    TikTok confirmed they had removed comments highlighted by The Sun, and added that their community guidelines make clear this behaviour is not acceptable.
    They encourage users to report any behaviour they believe violates their code.

    Tyrone Mings secretly battled Covid and lost his sense of taste and smell for eight months

    TYRONE Mings has revealed he battled Covid at the start of the pandemic – losing both his sense of taste and smell for eight months.The Three Lions ace spoke exclusively to The Sun today about his experience of the virus and said he had ultimate respect for the NHS and key workers who kept the country on its feet.

    Tyrone, 28, said he believed he contracted Covid before the lockdown.He said: “I was so ill. It was awful. I had all the symptoms, and I lost my smell and taste from that day for eight months.
    “It was heartbreaking – I was going through all the different food groups trying to work out how I could get my taste back.
    “I remember my smell coming back very faint, I would spray perfume and I would get a faint whiff.
    “With my taste it was like my brain was telling me what something tasted like.
    It was awful. I had all the symptoms, and I lost my smell and taste from that day for eight months.
    “Like I still wouldn’t eat foods I didn’t like, even though I couldn’t taste anything. It made no sense.
    “I remember finally going for a curry one time and I got the faintest test and I thought, ‘Here we go. It’s coming back!”
    In his interview with The Sun, the Aston Villa defender also spoke candidly about his own mental health battles during the Euros.

    He worked with a psychologist who helped him cope with the challenges he was facing.
    Tyrone said:  “I did have a tough time in the lead up to the Croatia game.“I think I’m a lot more hardened to outside influences now, but my mental health did plummet.
    “And I have no shame in admitting that because there was so many unknowns about me going to that game, and I was probably the only name on the teamsheet that people thought, ‘Not sure about him’. And that was something I had to overcome.
    “When 90-95 per cent of your country are having doubts over you, it’d very difficult for this not to intrude onto your own thoughts.
    “So I did a lot of work on that with my psychologist. I was given a lot of coping mechanisms, whether it was breathing, meditation, or just learning how to bring yourself into the present moment.
    “To stop letting your subconscious take over, that was hard. I didn’t really sleep very well before that first game.”

    But while he did face dark moments, Tyrone said all the players, under manager Gareth Southgate, 50, had hugely positive experiences during the tournament.
    Highlights included Ed Sheeran, 30, coming to surprise the players with a gig.
    Tyrone explained:  “Declan Rice joined him for a duet, they sang Wonderwall… it was genuinely one of the best nights of my life”.
