That's €320k a week, isn't it? It seems unlikely Gravenberch is on that much.

Leeds United are a disgrace. Booing the players breaking their fast!

🤩 delightful by Solanke!

Anthony Gordon really should have been sent off already. Crazy guy! 😬

With so many muscle injuries, it must be down to the training and conditioning

The camera angle at Bournemouth is rubbish

Great plan Labour. Try to appeal to voters on the right, who will never vote for you, causing a haemorrhage of your core support to every other party.

Oh Kerkez, that's a great move. Ambitious pass, followed up with a driving run and sensible pass

Ooof! That was a delightful move that deserved a goal. Ekitike unlucky to hit the corner of post and bar

I'm surprised the lino didn't flag. Looked well ahead of the ball even from out live TV angle

Gravenberch failed to head the ball properly twice in 2 minutes. 😬

Last night I met a guy who said everyone in his office uses ChatGPT "because you just type in two lines and it generates a whole email for you!" And I *very correctly* replied that "no one wants that 'whole email' they just want the two lines - and they all hate you"

Against the promoted teams this season, we've won 1 out of 5, and that was from a last minute penalty. We have scored 3 goals which includes a penalty and an own goal.

I'm relieved we're not getting Guehi, given his homophobia, height and salary demands. We do need a centre back this window though – ideally home grown. I'm more annoyed we didn't get Semenyo - tall, quick, strong, versatile, scores and assists, home grown.

Slot should not be given any more time. Four points from 12, including draws against 2 newly-promoted teams in the bottom 3, is relegation form.

Sub Dom off for Alexis. He keeps slowing things down at the wrong time and making bad decisions with passes

It's bullshit that we give opponents excellent set piece opportunities from the slightest of infractions in the middle of the pitch, but when we have a similar freekick opportunity (with all our height and aerial threat), we always take a short pass, recycle and often end up back with our keeper.

What a hit! Phew!

Kerkez should have shot back post

Just a reminder - the whole 'People are entitled to their opinions' is correct when it's something like 'tea is better than coffee' not when it's 'gay people are an abomination'. 🤷‍♂️

Wow! Fair play to Utd and Carrick! 😲

This Ibrahima Konate looks decent. Maybe we should try to sign him. On headers though, it's really noticeable that when he heads the ball, it often leads to us conceding possession. Whereas Virgil's headers mostly go to a team mate and we retain possession.

Center backs 26yo or younger in the Big 5 with aerial and tackle win rates at least 60% sorted by progressive passing yards

A new Cambridge index tracked the bot economy across 500 platforms. The UK is almost as cheap to manipulate as Russia. With Scottish and Welsh elections coming up in May, this makes sobering reading ⤵️ @eastangliabylines.co.uk

This is why it's not worth arguing with 'people' on social media on subjects ranging from climate, to politics, to vaccines. They're likely bots, especially Reform supporting accounts (a russian linked party)

How has Charlie Cresswell got on this season? He looked good for England U21s last summer when I saw him. I thought he could be useful for Liverpool

I've got no skin in this game, but that's not what VAR is for. It's a goal. It's so subjective it's not something you should re-referee. It's also so marginal

Great news! 🙏🫶

Wow! Brilliant to turn it around from 0-2 to win 4-2!

Jurgen Klopp gives great advice ❤️

Exactly! I cant believe how easily they dismissed it. Deffo pen in UEFA comps

Also that is a penalty, I’m sorry. Based on the standards they’ve been given recently, he’s made no play on the ball and moved into Frimpong, turning his ankle. These lot would be fuming if Virgil did that little wee contact and stopped Saka.

How's that not a fucking penalty? Hincape tripped Frimpong and that brought him down and injured him!!! #arsliv

I understand the pressures on the BBC, but Radio 4's coverage of the Minneapolis shooting is an example of "bad balance". It's all "the Trump regime says she was a terrorist, but Democrats say it was murder". The BBC has the footage. It doesn't have to treat truth and falsehood as equally valid.

I think Fabian Schär tried to hurt DCL there by scissoring him, but ended up getting hurt himself as DCL fell on his knee

Jonny Bairstow hitting 34 off one over is pretty good. So close to the perfect 36!

Literally a publication for eight-year olds 40 years ago

Exactly

999 times out of 1000, he's sticking this in the Thames. But oh no, Liverpool are in town 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 #LFC

Slot is showing himself to be tactically limited. He keeps complaining about low block teams, but his job is to beat any defensive tactics the opposition use. Arsenal and City find a way.

Might be for the best. Good player, but we need legs and physicality (along with ability on the ball), but Alexis has dropped off a lot this season.

That's Chris Kavanagh blowing the final whistle to prevent Bournemouth putting the ball back in the box. There had been 2 further stoppages during stoppage time and he only added 15 seconds. He's a terrible referee.

Looked onside to me, but wasnt there a push by Gyokores?

I didn't realise Gabriel was back when I did my #fpl free hit today. Also annoyed Timber is playing after I took him out as he was an injury risk. Put James in instead and he didn't even start. Grrr

Are Arsenal capable of scoring an open play goal?

You'd still be making VAR calls based on a few millimeters of overlap, so still drawing lines. With semi-automated offsides working well, I see no good reason to change the law the way Wenger has proposed.

Wenger's proposed change to the offside law is ridiculous and against the spirit of the current and previous versions of the offside law. Until 1990, the law was even stricter - the attacker couldn't even be level with the defender. With Wenger's law all 3 of these pics below would be onside. Crazy!

In case you missed it ... Here's Katherine Hepburn exposing a fascist plan to take over America in the 1942 film "Keeper of the Flame". The parallels between that plot and what's happening in the USA and elewhere today is staggering!

Is this the point where Guehi wants to move to LFC in Jan and we decide we’d sooner take our chances if he’d still come on a free at the end of this season. If he’s our answer, what is the question?

I totally agree. Scissors his ankle whilst going full force through the back of his leg. Those are cowards challenges.
