I can't say I'm sad about this 🤭 but blame needs to be shared if Salah has an acrimonious exit in January.
Slot devised a simple plan to get the best out of him. This season, he's struggled to.
Pundits like Carragher put onus on Salah, than say Van Dijk or other experienced players.

Paul Gorst
For 420 games Mohamed Salah's polite declining of requests to stop and talk after Liverpool games has become a running joke with those in the media who he regularly sees at Anfield.

And FIFA gave Trump a "peace prize" yesterday.
Plenty of reporting for the World Cup will centre around Trump's handling of international events but let's not ignore what his ICE criminals are doing to local folk across the US.

A 22-year-old woman was chased back to her home by 6 masked ICE agents in Louisiana but backed down after being confronted by her stepfather.

FIFA awarding Donald Trump a "peace prize" is an insult to every supporter/player/coach of the beautiful game who actually believes in justice and humanity.

So, I went against my better judgment and went for the Free Hit bringing me 40pts.
The City assets didn't deliver which destroyed the team unfortunately.
Let's hope I can get back on track with the midweek game 🤞🏽

With the last three GWs bringing positive returns, I've been tempted to use my Free Hit otherwise no chance I could buy Haaland.
Predictable loading of City, Brentford and Villa assets whilst retaining Henderson, Munoz and Milenkovic.

Once all ten were in the ring, it was mayhem but the Men's #WarGames decided by a masked invader!
Definitely not Seth, but maybe Austin Theory?
A decent PLE but for #SurvivorSeries it perhaps needed that traditional match left on Smackdown

I guess Vaquer vs Bella was a match to quieten the crowd ahead of the men's #WarGames?
A pretty uneventful feud between these two and the match is a Devil's Kiss x2 and it's job done ✔️

When I saw Roxanne and Raquel walking out with Dom, I thought of Liv. It doesn't happen often they're ringside for Dom recently.
Does Dom win and Liv returns to cast a shadow on his big moment?

First time watching a #WarGames match. It's a mix of a few formats into one (steel cage, Elimination Chamber, Rumble), and it's decent but I find the match starting when all 10 are in the ring a tad pointless.
Perhaps add an Elimination element to it?
A solid opener for #SurvivorSeries

I can only hope Carmelo Hayes is involved as that is a horrendous "surprise".

Idk, but Jey beat Rusev way too easily imo.
Moments before Rusev rightfully showed disdain for the "spear" and later, he's pinned after another spear and a splash 🤔
