This #PSG prediction came early...
This #PSG team will be a #UCL threat in the next few seasons. That attack, Dembele, Kvaratskhelia, Barcola & Doue, is one of the most exciting in Europe. Add to the mix Joao Neves, Hakimi, Mendes, Vitinha, WZE, Kang-in... fun team.
PSG announce the contract extensions of Nuno Mendes, Vitinha and Achraf Hakimi as well as Luis Enrique (until 2027) with a pre-match ceremony

#LFC were allowed to make 6 subtitutions during #LIVSOU due to a new concussion rule. That explains why TAA is even considering leaving for #RealMadrid.

Michael Oliver didn't think this was a red card without VAR intervention. There are too many errors of judgement from him this season. Apart from being dropped, do referees get any training?
Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts has had his suspension increased from three to six matches by the FA after being red carded following a challenge on Jean-Philippe Mateta.

Visited the new London City Hall in Canning Town today. Nice building. Nice prayer room - pleasantly surprised how accessible it is (in the main foyer) with a proper ablution sink.

Arne Slot must really not fancy Chiesa if Salah & Diaz deliver a stinker like tonight, and he chooses Elliott & Jones over him.
Richard Hughes took a risk and hasn't paid off. It's not a good start for him on the transfer front as #LFC Sporting Director.

Alexander Isak is a great striker. But don't fancy #LFC spending £100m+ on a striker who misses 8-18 matches per season due to injury. No matter how good he is, I'm scarred from high-quality players like Jota, Sturridge & Kewell being injured and negatively impacting our seasons.

Rangemaster (cooker) customer service is excellent.
I didn't realise that to access the 2yr warranty on the appliance, I needed to register it within 30 days of delivery. Called them, and they still honoured the warranty. Nice chap, too.

Since Trump came to power and attacked DEI, many companies have scaled back their commitments - especially those with ties to the US. Others have doubled down.

I wouldn't mind Matheus Cunha taking Diogo Jota's place in the #LFC squad this summer.
Jota's fitness is unreliable. Don't think Slot trusts him to play the LW role, which MC can do, as well as the F9. This also allows the club to take a risk with a no.9 from abroad.

With TAA most likely leaving #LFC, who's the next vice captain?
Alisson replacement already bought. Robertson contract running down & not suited to Slot-ball.
Salah? Konate?

Must be maddening supporting a team that plays Jeremy Doku. Electric dribbler, but no end product. Doubt he ever develops it. Surprised Pep Guardiola & #MCFC signed him.

Two aspects I like re Arne Slot's #LFC management:
1. Pragmatism. During #MCILIV, deployed a 424 2x false 9s. Happy to concede possession but never looked threatened. Stark contrast to Amorim who's v dogmatic.
2. Subs on fresh legs. Under Klopp, Tsimikas hardly came on when Robertson was tired.

Stefan Bajcetic has really grown. Looks as tall as Gravenberch now. Remember him being sidelined for "growing pains" as a teenager. Should help him adapt to the physicality of the PL.

#Mo on Netflix is heavy man. Those last two episodes 👏🏽 Surprised they aired it.
Took away the importance of family, heritage and proudly owning your identity. Yusra (mum) the star of the show. Exploring Sameer's autism was a positive subplot.
Inspired me to document more of my life for my family.

On the whole, Google Workspace products work well - especially for remote working. Google Docs catching up with Microsoft Office.
However, tech support is 👎🏽. Self-help guides aren't clear. When you get through to a human, their responses are confusing, like English/logic isn't a first language.

What is up with #LFC and their inability to attack or defend set pieces? Comical
More so when you have players like VVD, Konate & Alisson
