Told you we should have hung onto him…. #lufc

Beaten by a team with more quality across the park and good defensive discipline. We didn’t make it the kind of arm wrestle we needed to, really, and made mistakes at key moments. Suspect we’ll see a few more of these this season. #lufc

Bogle’s crossing today… ugh.

Still applies, btw…. #lufc

Very similar to Bournemouth… their quality is obvious, and they’re finding space behind our midfield. But their goal seemed to spark us into life and, for a third game running, we managed to find a quick riposte and start winning the individual duels. But another gear needed. #lufc

Perfectly timed. #lufc

Too many not quite on it so far… Ampadu, Stach, DCL. Quality gap pretty evident. #lufc

In the summer, I vowed to stop buying novels until I re-read the ones that have been on my shelf for 20+ years… I’m five down now and I may as well have been reading them for the first time. I’d barely retained a single detail from any of them.

Desperate for the West Indies to be competitive at Test level again but this is just pitiful. They’ll barely make it to 2.5-days… #IndvWI

Never go full Braverman….

Woken up more annoyed about yesterday than I was about Fulham… three points were in the bag and we switch off at a set piece. 10 points from 6 would have matched Bielsa’s Prem start. There’s plenty to be encouraged about, of course, but can’t afford too many more injury-time concessions. #lufc

Gutting… and, like Fulham, really undeserved. That second half was far more comfortable than Wolves… unfortunately, Tanaka isn’t strong enough, coughs up a needless free kick and we switch off at the far post. We more than enough opportunities to put that bed. #lufc

Much more end-to-end than I was expecting. But we’re competing, getting tackles in and attacking in decent numbers. Unlucky not to be 1-2 up when they scored but, like Wolves, we didn’t panic and managed to force the equaliser. Bournemouth best we’ve seen at ER, though. Work to do. #lufc

Dont know what the 2 special announcements today are going to be. But if one of them isnt the installation of a new PA system at Elland Road, then no one will know what the announcements are #LUFC

Hampshire all out… #Yorkshire stay up. #thecricket

Ah, sad news. His “Gun and the Olive Branch” is a blistering history of the politics of #Palestine… and something I dip into for ammunition regularly.

I need to stop watching Netflix crime dramas... just finished Dept Q and while Matthew Goode was, well, good, I couldn't get over the plot holes and the convenient contrivances and the clunky "so here's what happened" dialogue. And aren't we beyond in-car scenes using green-screened scenery...?

Reminder: self-determination is a right enshrined in international law... it's not a gift to be granted in a fit of political expediency. #Palestine

Danny Mills’ lad running in the 5000m final right now… #lufc

Molineux is one of those grounds, like Hillsborough, where the pitch looks 20% bigger than most others. Sure it’s a standard size but it always feels like there’s acres of space out there. #lufc

Not going to lie, I *hated* that second half… was convinced the roof was going to fall in, especially as we struggled to keep the ball late on. But that is a brilliant 3 points, especially after conceding first – and a proper shift from all involved. MotM between Darlow and Gudmundsson for me. #lufc

Okay, that’s quite enough entertainment for one afternoon, thank you very much. #shutupshop #lufc

Leeds-Wolves at Molineux in the Prem = mental. #lufc

That’s the greatest goal ever. #lufc

Happy new Nation of Language album day… a lovely thing on first pass. open.spotify.com/album/2fNPTF...

Outstanding bit of writing on the impulse to overlook in death what a divisive polemicist stood for in life.

RIP Robert Redford.

Yes, it has. In word and deed. And yet our craven PM does photo-ops with the perpetrators' president.

Armand Duplantis: the greatest athlete ever. 6m 30. Incredible.

We definitely deserved a point. We created the better chances in the first hour or so while keeping them largely at bay. The difference, ultimately, is that they can bring on £100m+-worth of subs to shift the momentum… although it still took a freak goal to seal it. Infuriating. #lufc

All that work thrown away like that… absolutely gutting. #lufc

Decent, that. Looking a little more cohesive, a little more connected… and offering much more threat, even if clear chances are still at a premium. Okafor has been bright, the midfield combative… and Aaronson everything you’d expect. #lufc

Probably our best XI bar Gnonto and Perri… but Aaronson at RW is a *huge* call, especially against Iwobi. One of those that managers might struggle to live down if it doesn’t go well. #lufc

Untamed on Netflix = a string of TV detective cliches separated by wooden acting, unnecessary side plots and unconvincing twists. Should have bailed 4 episodes ago.

This is great... although I was disappointed when, just after Farage had appeared, the teacher said "our solar panels" and not "arsehole".

Just the 7th country Israel has bombed in the last 6 months... and that's without the genocide in Gaza. Is anyone going to stop these psychopaths?

Already at 6.5k....! #lufc

#England building up some decent momentum in the 50-over form… ah, well, nevertheless.

Knock, young man. #EngvSA

Yeah, like I said, he was never the level we needed. #lufc

What a lovely album this is...

Didn't want Josh Brownhill on Monday... now I'm adamant he's the lovechild of Pablo and Lee Bowyer who will save our season. #lufc

There's no doubt we haven't given Farke enough this summer, but if there's one slight defence of our recruitment is just how insane the market got. Feels like prices were inflated 40-50%, certainly for forwards. In May, Muniz was probably 25m, Okafor nearer 10m. Should we have sold Joseph? #lufc

Forgot #England were playing today.... probably just as well.

Desperate clutching-at-straws thought: could Christian Eriksen be this team's Pablo? Assume he still lives in't North. Or should we just fork out for Brownhill's wages...? #lufc

Not sure what's worse... us not getting the attacking options we need, or social media whenever Ramazani, Bakwa, Diarra, Uche, Wilson or Hamer does anything between now and Christmas*. #lufc *Christmas, 2034.

Let’s be honest, it would have been a 6/10 window – at best – with Wilson. Now it’s looking like a long, grim grind through autumn as we try to George Graham our way to January. Feels like an entirely avoidable act of self-sabotage... #lufc

... and there it is. #lufc
