Turkiye brought its fair share of football. Cold, sunny, cloudy and pretty settings in the last couple of weeks.

I love Lindsay Vonn. She's Ayrton Senna levels of nuts. Knee replacement? ACL + Meniscus tear? Don't care. Absolutely insane. She's an ultimate sports great for that reason.

Which set of British football fans is most likely to wear their team's kit on holiday thinking people care?

Newcastle causing all sorts of issues. But Ekitike and Inchallah

Not a great half by Villa here with a reshuffled XI. 2 attempts in the first 30 seconds, and nothing!

Benfica, with all the fun distributed a battering. Madrid's defensive actions map tells you the whole story!

38 shots, over 6xG. Fun evening at Anfield.

Trubin goal for the ages. Mourinho should retire now if he has any sense.

This St Pauli v RB Leipzig is bags of fun, the ball rarely seems to leave the pitch boundaries. Are they not aware that people want long throws and time wasting in Germany?

On the LFC match yesterday, I've seen quite a lot of "Same shit different day" shouts which are not true. In contrast with the last few draws, that was a knackered performance where players failed to execute the bare minimum required.

Liverpool have faced two teams in their history whose names contain the word 'arse'. Dominik Szoboszlai has scored direct free-kick goals against both of them this season. I don't know what to do with this information, so here it is. #statoftheday #makesyouthink #arse

Winning 3-0 against Marseille away is no mean feat. Great performance and result. I'll keep on insisting something is happening with this team.

Are draft excluders woke nonsense?

Phenomenal work from Szoboszlai reviving the draft excluder discourse from 7 years ago.

All Tottenham needed to do was play Odobert on the right? He's looking good tonight, Bensebaini will have nightmares.

Such a great answer to a disrespectful question.

A long read from Tomkins but a good piece. Strangely applicable to many more contexts outside LFC. tomkinstimes.substack.com/p/the-enshit...

Are you telling me there is hope? Really hope they can have a good cup run, have fun in the remaining games and prepare for a better next season.

Very pleased with the LFC Women's team business. Denise O'Sullivan is a significant addition to the team. Still enough time to get a few league wins and a cup run, starting today.

In almost every way, this is what a very good performance looks like. If you remove the scoreline from it, it's good stuff. Chances, shape, danger zones, involvements are all good. The worrying things: -The substitutions are vibey and momentum-killing. -Szoboszlai being just ok is not enough.

It's a bit maddening because Liverpool just keep doing things mostly right. There are way more signs showing we're going in the right direction than the opposite. Keep the faith at all cost.

There's a fairly effective trio of Jones-Ekitike-Wirtz starting to appear.

www.thisisanfield.com/2026/01/arne... this is an excellent reaction to a good result from Slot. He is saying broadly the same things as after poor results, but because the team had a better than expected result, more people will now listen to what he is saying #lfc

Gutted for Bradley. That looks really, really bad. Other than that, good performance from the reds, still lacking belief in the final third but never really in doubt tonight. Good work!

Feeling ill but had a great night. 1. Up the Elephants 🇨🇮 2. Marty Supreme is (annoyingly) a triumph.

The misfortune is completely insane at this point. Liverpool did most things right if not very entertaining. But I suppose a 30-yard thunderbastard from some random is just what's going to happen at the moment.

Terrible take. Literally every FIFA Peace Prize winner has done this.

Hopefully the start of the turnaround for LFCW. Alice seems like a great versatile player able to play RB/LB/RW/LW who rarely misses a game.

Disappointing result but far from the horrible performance some will make it out to be. Very good first half, Slot then gambled on bringing some unpredictability which did not pay off whatsoever. The Ekitike-Wirtz-Jones connection looks our most potent weapon and we missed it in the dying moments.

A good half from Liverpool, who are doing the brave thing of playing intricate, technical football in this crazy world of set-plays and long balls. Ekitike topping the expected threat per involvement shows how key he is becoming as a chance creator.

Got to feel for Briggs, who was originally brought in to work with players individually. LFC didn't anticipate the set-piece insanity this season would turn out to be.

Gave my live dashboards a proper test with the exciting Coventry v Ipswich... Turned out to be the old game of two halves. Ipswich looking impressive recently. 0'-100 | 0'-50' | 45'-100

Leeds are good. Keeping Daniel Farke was absolutely the correct decision. Stach and Aaronson both seem to be reaching a decent level, capable of driving the attack and find DCL somewhere near the goal.

Good 3 points. Wolves, despite the dismal points total are not really that bad and lose their games by one goal most often. Another worrying set-piece goal conceded, but also a bunch of positives. Wirtz very good, Frimpong showing some serious positives too.

Egypt has dealt remarkably well with being a man down. There may be method in Hossam Hassan's madness.

Must be tough for some of the AFCON teams having to decide whether they pick top, in-form players from local leagues or more average guys playing in Europe.

This Egypt vs South Africa is tasty stuff. Egypt manager is an absolute nutcase, he's fantastic.

Love Ivory Coast and coach Faé. Up the Elephants 🇨🇮

Burkina playing some fun stuff in the early stages.

Craven Cottage is pretty. Not the best football game though, but enjoyable night nonetheless.

I can’t really explain why I absolutely despise international football. World Cup, Euros, Nations League etc… can all get in the bin. Afcon however, I would die for it. The only international tournament that matters.

Very strange game this. Concerning performance and injuries. Capital win for Liverpool's season though.

I really hope that the people hate the FIFA World Cup 2026. It would greatly help football if that turned out to be an unpopular event.

This Ekstraklasa season is quite special. Everyone is in the title race and relegation battle. Wisła Płock top of the league despite drawing their last 5 games.

Ekitike had some impressive moments of pace today, but couldn't get that last pass right. Solid performance but with many things to improve upon. I liked the attitude of the team too. Very aggressive and looked more confident.

Florian Wirtz and Bart Verbruggen may be the same person.

I occasionally watch 2. Bundesliga, and every time I do, I think to myself that I should really massively be into 2. Bundesliga. Proper football in every sense.

Let's try stopping the far-right by being the far-right. They're an absolute disgrace, it's embarrassing.
