And he’s excited. He’s like, Hey, that’s me up there.

AMPAS

He thinks to himself, Heh, this is our year L.D. This is ouuurrrrr year.

AMPAS

Then Jennifer Lawrence announces that the Best Actor award is actually going to Matthew McConaughey, for his role in Dallas Buyer’s Club.

AMPAS

And then… it sinks in. And Leo is forced to give Matthew a hug.

AMPAS

It’s awkward. It’s hard for him.

AMPAS

He holds it a little too long…

AMPAS

“It was supposed to be mine.”

Suarez is pushing Messi and Ronaldo really close - Liverpool captain Gerrard

After the Uruguayan got back to scoring ways against Southampton, the Reds midfielder declared his belief that his team-mate is firmly among the best players in the world

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard believes that Luis Suarez is up there with Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo as the best player in the world.

The Uruguayan scored his 25th goal and registered his 11th assist of the season against Southampton on Saturday, playing a key role in the Reds' 3-0 win, and the midfielder was left awestruck by his performance.

"I've run out of words to describe him," Gerrard told reporters. "We're blessed in this country to have some really top forwards but for me, without being biased, he’s the best.

"I've said it many times, I look at Messi and Ronaldo and, yeah, they're world-class players but, outside of that, you have [Zlatan] Ibrahimovic and Luis Suarez, who are pushing those two really close.

	LIVERPOOL LATEST
5/1	Liverpool are 5/1 with William Hill to win the Premier League

"Performances like this, where he hasn't scored for four or five games but he's getting assists, causing so many problems. He's relentless. He's a winner, he's a killer and we're lucky to have him."

The skipper added to the Liverpool Echo: "Luis showed once again that he's an absolute genius. People had been talking about him going five games without a goal but his contribution to the team has never wavered. 

"He is very unselfish. At times he's been asked to play in a wider role and he has shown what a great team player he is. Even when he wasn't scoring, he was still terrorising defenders and creating goals for us.

"It was a great way for him to celebrate 100 league games for the club. His record is phenomenal."

The win at St Mary's Stadium moved Brendan Rodgers's side up to second in the Premier League and Gerrard believes that their underdog status could well see them win the title.

"I think it's very nice people are talking about us and we're in the title race. There's no getting away from that, we're in it," he declared to the press.

"But it's important we stay calm, keep taking it game by game and try to win as many games as we can.

"Manchester City and Chelsea are still the favourites because they have that experience of going to win it but I think both know, listening to Jose Mourinho and Manuel Pellegrini, that we’re a big threat because we've got no Europe and we can be fresh every game.

"Yes, it does suit us at the moment being underdogs. What suits us as well is we’ve a lot of time to prepare."

Wenger confirms Arsenal interest in Real Sociedad starlet Griezmann

The forward has earned a France call-up on the back of his impressive goalscoring form in La Liga this season and the Gunners boss admits that the 22-year-old is a transfer target

Arsene Wenger has confirmed that Arsenal are monitoring Real Sociedad forward Antoine Griezmann. 

The 22-year-old has been in impressive form so far this season, scoring 19 goals across all competitions to help his side into sixth place in La Liga.

Arsenal remain in the market for a striker to reduce some of the goalscoring burden on Olivier Giroud, having failed with January moves for Alvaro Morata and Miroslav Klose.

Speaking to Telefoot TF1, Wenger admitted that the French winger is of interest to the Gunners, stating that they had been "following Antoine Griezmann for a long time".

Griezmann is currently La Liga's third-highest scorer behind Cristiano Ronaldo and Diego Costa and his exceptional form has earned a first call-up to the France side for their friendly with Netherlands.

Arsenal, meanwhile, could not find the target on Saturday as they slipped to a 1-0 defeat at Stoke, leaving them four points behind leaders Chelsea, with Wenger left to bemoan his side's inability to cope with the Potters.

"You have to give credit to Stoke, they defended well with resilience and they made the game very physical," he told reporters.

"We knew before the game, they have the highest number of fouls in the Premier League but we didn't cope well enough with it.

"Honestly I don't want to talk about the referee. I have nothing to say about [fouls on Giroud], I'm long enough in the game to make my own judgement and I prefer to concentrate on our performance."

Bayern will not stop signing Dortmund stars, says Rummenigge

The reigning champions are intent on continuing their transfer policy and will keep on trying to sign the best players available from their arch-rivals

Bayern Munich chairman Karl-Heinz Rummenigge says that the Bundesliga champions will not stop signing players from Borussia Dortmund just to maintain a good relationship with their rivals.

The Bavarians have received their fair share of criticism for their tendency to stockpile the Bundesliga's best talent, with the signings of Mario Gotze and Robert Lewandowski from BVB in particular causing uproar.

Nevertheless, Rummenigge has made it clear that Bayern will not change their transfer policy, irrespective of how their rivals feel about it.

"We would never make a senseless decision to no longer sign players from Dortmund," Rummenigge toldZDF.

"We have a good relationship with Dortmund. I met with their CEO last summer and any bad feelings were cleared up then."

Bayern lured Gotze to the Allianz Arena last season by triggering his €37 million exit clause, while Lewandowski will make the move to Bavaria on a free transfer this summer.

Juventus would be a step back, says Verratti

The playmaker has rejected suggestions that he would want to join the Bianconeri, arguing that it would not be a wise career move for him

Marco Verratti has dismissed the idea of leaving Paris Saint-Germain for Juventus, describing the prospect of a move to Turin as a "step back".

The 21-year-old playmaker had the opportunity to join the Italian champions in 2012 while playing for Serie B side Pescara but instead opted to move to the Parc des Princes, where he has become an important part of the Ligue 1 outfit's midfield alongside Blaise Matuidi and Thiago Motta.

Verratti has previously stated that he rejected the Old Lady due to concerns over the amount of playing time he would be afforded in Turin, but he has now suggested that he has outgrown the Bianconeri.

"If I were to go to Juve now, it would be a step back," the midfielder told L'Equipe.

"I'm good here and I want to stay for a long time. When I was a kid, I liked the club [Juventus], but now I'm happy at PSG.

"The PSG project is among the best in the world. In Paris, we have the possibility of winning everything in a few years' time."

The Italy international, who has made 21 appearances and contributed six assists in Ligue 1 this season, also denied rumours that he had spoken with Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti over a possible transfer to the Santiago Bernabeu.

"There was no contact with Ancelotti last summer," Verratti declared. "We call each other every now and then, but it's only because he likes to joke a lot."

PSG currently lead Ligue 1 with 61 points from 26 games, five ahead of Monaco, who fell to a 2-0 defeat against Saint-Etienne on Saturday.

The world's largest aircraft can fly for three weeks (it's not cute)

A touch scary?

Thanks to technology, the world is becoming a darker place.

No, I'm not suggesting that we're becoming less and less enlightened, as we sacrifice our minds to the robots.

Instead, I'm merely indicating that we will soon not be able to see that thing we currently call the sky.

There'll be Jeff Bezos's drones flying around all day, delivering dictionaries and diapers to the distressed. There'll be journalistic drones all around, capturing every aerial detail of multiple carcrashes.

And then there'll be the HAV 304 Airlander, which is so large that it will block the view of several planets as it waddles through the heavens.

I confess I hadn't heard of this plane before the Telegraph told me it was the world's largest aircraft.

Indeed, when you look at the promotional video above, it's got massive green credentials, can fly for three weeks, and is a marvelous hybrid of airship, plane, and helicopter.

It's 300 feet long and doesn't need an airport to take off. Yes, if you have a large garden, it can take off from it.

More Technically Incorrect

• For Oscars ads, Samsung is at one with Microsoft notion
• Microsoft's latest stab at Apple: Macs are no good for weddings
• Obama: We're building Iron Man
• Daughter's Facebook foghorn blows dad's $80,000
• Comcast really, really doesn't care about you (allegedly)

It can land on water, sand, or ice.

Some might be disturbed, though, by its potential uses. Though it can be used to deliver vast amounts of humanitarian aid, I was moved by the words of Hybrid Air Vehicles' technical director, who says in the video: "You can put 7 or 8 tons of surveillance equipment on board."

Honestly, we can never have enough surveillance. What fun to have it being transported in a vehicle the size of Vegas.

Bruce Dickinson, lead singer of metal band Iron Maiden, is one of those involved in this fine project, which has been given 2.5 million British pounds (about $4.2 million) to prepare itself for a maiden flight in the fall.

Some, though, have observed that its rear end resembles, well, a large human rear end.

That would surely be one more discombobulating sight in the skies of the future.

Just so beautiful.
