If - and it's an if - #lfc's complaint results in PGMOL acknowledging that they didn't adhere to their (presumably obligatory) VAR processes, processes that were largely put in place owing to VAR failings coincidentally against the same club, it only further legitimises the idea of VAR's abolition.

Just a quiet reminder that countries shouldn't own football clubs.

The simple question for the officials is whether Robertson - who is an offside position - interferes with the goalkeeper by preventing him from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing his line of vision. #lfc

A not guilty verdict, accompanied by many sandwich jokes. “Jurors showed no appetite for the Justice Department's case against "sandwich guy," the D.C. resident who chucked a Subway sandwich at the chest of a federal officer, finding him not guilty on Thursday after several hours of deliberations.”

Two things about #lfc's goal.
(1) The quickly taken throw-in was a result of Wirtz harrying Huijsen, as he did repeatedly.
(2) There's no need for Bellingham to make the challenge, but he remains indisciplined, especially when he's ineffective and being played out of the game.

Fun that Mamdani is an Arsenal fan. It'll leave supporters wondering what it's like to be progressive, fun to watch, and actually win things.

If it's a foul, it's a penalty. But I'm not convinced that's really handball. #lfc

In trade mark news, UEFA has applied to register the not at all wordy mark "UEFA Ultimate Champions Legends Tournament". I feel it's in need of more superlatives to make sure people really understand its status - perhaps the "UEFA's Greatest Supreme Ultimate Champions Superstar Legends Tournament".

In good news, the far right PVV is predicted to both lose seats and no longer be the largest party in the Netherlands. D66 (the predicted largest party, centre/centre-left) likely to forge a coalition with GroenLinks-PvdA (left/centre-left), VVD (centre-right), and CDA (centre/centre-right).
