Nothing is ever more important to some people than just getting their daily transfer slop

friend sent this over from the other place and unfortunately I did laugh

Refs start giving the fouls that you regularly see elsewhere (and did see for ages beforehand in the Premier League) and there’s less nonsense

"The trade was not that you were getting exposed to geopolitics when moving to Dubai."

The rationalising is somehow worse than the spectacle

Always thought it was instructive that *Whole Foods* had an entire aisle dedicated to dried mac n cheese

I know a lot of people think Microsoft Excel is a dreadful piece of software, but I would rate it October 10th.

On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers.

But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.

Just checked - we’re 4th on total xGA, 11th on goals conceded. “More than a little bad luck”, as Slot said

Those colours, argh

Presumably because HBO Max is incoming?

Actively harmed them first 30 on Saturday.

Not even starting to think about how refs have to be to let that happen.

It's 1998. Peter Mandleson has resigned in disgrace from Labour.

It's 2001. Peter Mandleson has resigned in disgrace from Labour.

It's 2025. Peter Mandleson has resigned in disgrace from Labour.

Literally the story of every episode of this series

If anything we have too many homegrown players and ones who can run, so this makes sense.

Huge caveats around pre-season, but they knew the impact of that come September and appear to have decided January just isn’t for them. What do they expect.

Leaving Slot with a bare bones squad that can’t play 90 multiple times a week is becoming cruel. He takes all the flack while he can’t even pick a functioning back 4.

Just another thing to get unnecessarily mad about, it seems

Honestly.

you do not, under any circumstances, have to say a certain marseille player has "got that swagger about him" on a live tv broadcast.

Outrageous stuff that whole range

The best Avengers movie is Civil War, in this essay I will…

Nice one! The part about this being the performance that turned people is something I can’t shake. Why have patience when we looked totally broken and then lose it all when it’s turning around?

I don’t know how similar people have gone from backing him and talking about grief while we were losing 9 in 12 to calling us meek and cowardly by going 12 unbeaten and pretty much any stat you pick having us back to being an elite team. Where are these words and opinions being formed?

And today’s performance was more exciting than many of those! Seeing a lot of chat about the football being negative, which might have been true against Sunderland, but I can’t see it now
