James Corden's attempt to manage a football club ends in hilarious disaster
Watch Next

The Late Late Show host James Corden has many talents: carpool karaoke, acting, and arguably comedy.

Coaching football, however, is clearly not his forte.

In this skit for his show, Corden takes over as the head coach of Arsenal Football Club -- to the apparent bafflement and irritation of the club's elite players.

Corden leads the team in a chorus of "Baa Baa Black Sheep," forces them to undergo a wacky sport psychology session, and introduces some... unique new celebratory dances.

"I think I'm never going to get this hour back in my life," footballer Héctor Bellerín says. Unclear whether the quote is an intentional part of the skit or a genuine sentiment.
