I was struck, seeing this on the tube, by the contemporary resonance of Auden"s Epitaph on a Tyrant in this phase of the global projection of Trump’s sociopathic narcissism

Tough Man Utd XI to predict for @emma1.bsky.social and her team this week. But I have to assume Carrick rolls out a 4 3 3 and one of Amad/Mbeumo share minutes on the right post Afcon
Lammens
Dalot Harry Marty Shaw
Cassie Bruno Ugarte
Amad Sesko Cunha
Heaven, Mainoo, Dorgu, Mbeumo could all start

What did the Analytics Elite 64 and # Elite 64 do in GW19?
- Interesting captaincy split between the two groups, although not unanimous this time
- AE64 buy Hall and Szoboszlai, E64 prefer Dorgu and Gordon
- Everyone remembered to use all their chips phew

Commentary on #FPL predicted team line up -thanks!
Tossed out Man Utd prediction for @emma1.bsky.social and the team
We'll play either 4 4 2 or 4 3 3 tomorrow. Suspect it will be:
Lammens
Dalot Heaven Martinez Shaw
Ugarte Mainoo Bruno
Mount Sesko Cunha
However. He could play Zirkzee over Ugarte/Mainoo in a 4 4 2
Yoro might also play
9 nailed

Don't have time to do a fancy graphic this week for @emma1.bsky.social - sell our players anyway.
But I suspect this will be the team below. I keep getting 10/11 right because something random happens every week...
Lammens
Yoro MDL Shaw
Amad Cassie Bruno Dalot
Mbeumo Zirkzee Cunha

Man Utd Predicted XI for @emma1.bsky.social and her team
Wouldn't be surprised to see Yoro play over Mount/Zirkzee and push Amad up again
By all rights Mainoo should be starting here. But he won't. So here we are. Our manager will get sacked having NEVER changed his formation for a single second.

NEW There's no overstating how significant the Nathan Gill case is. On Friday, the close associate of Nigel Farage was jailed for over 10 years for taking bribes ultimately from a friend of Putin. It's a complex, detail-heavy story that raises questions about Farage’s claim Gill was ‘one bad apple’🧵

Dear Bluesky,
www.thenerve.news is still tiny. We launched it with no dirty money (no money at all, lol!). But we're proving what's possible with a small expert team & no billionaire owners.
We knew the UK press wouldn't understand or properly cover this story, so we did. Thank you for the support!
