Hoping everyone in Liverpool is safe. No one should share that footage further. People will still be trying to check on friends and family

Beautiful day in the sun. Not the result I wanted, and I didn't like booing, but not a bad final trip to Anfield this season.

What's incredible about this Kimmel skit is that we all laugh at how ludicrous this safety cone idea is, yet this is the actual approach our authorities and city leaders take with road safety for those outside of the car.

The single biggest season-on-season drop off I’ve ever seen in a footballer was Fabinho between 2021-22 and 2022-23. Manchester City have about six Fabinhos. Legs gone all over the pitch. They can’t run and react. It’s incredible, and could well get worse before it gets better.
