The Chosun Ilbo used this article to claim that Lee Hanbeom had transfer interest from Everton: www.toffeeweb.com/season/25-26...

This is mad. Korean journalism is broken if they've got journalists scouring the web and thinking this is a "legitimate" source that could be cited on a news site.
Midtjylland to Merseyside: Future Everton stars? Rumour Mill
One club that has been on the Toffees’ radar is FC Midtjylland of Denmark, who have shone on the domestic and European stage this season.

Interesting to draw a clear line between fans and media. Collin feels he owes fans and highlighted how he showed up for the fans, but not the media. I don't like how he said this, but it says something that he's sticking to his position. Hopefully his agent and team are giving him the right advice.

For this international women's day I outline what we need to do to ensure that this next step of feminism isn't that of backlash but of joint coming together of men and women. We need to persuade men of the utopian feminist future they will thrive in. theconversation.com/mens-concern...
Men’s concerns are real but backlash is not inevitable – the new rules guiding feminism
Recognising that some men feel left behind doesn’t mean giving in to misogynists.

As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

Lee Jae-sung went to Europe just before he turned 26. He's a testament to the fact that Asian players can have successful careers in Europe after 25.

After his goal & assist yesterday, he now has seven straight seasons of at least 7 G/A.

Underrated level of production.

If Arsenal fail to win a trophy this year (looking likely with the UCL bracket and points gap in the Prem), it will be down to the players on the pitch to an extent. The results have not been good enough. The injuries across the squad have not helped.

Quite disappointing to see the Korean ⚽ media including Hwang Uijo, a man currently indicted and on trial for illegally filming sexual encounters, in a graphic highlighting Korean players in 🇪🇺.

Uneasy feeling that maybe the Arsenal top brass, including the Kroenkes, were unwilling to back Arteta fully this winter window. What if they felt they'd rather wait until summer to see what he does with this team before deciding if he deserves a new #9?

Jorge Vilda is truly a terrible man to threaten a player about an unwanted sexual advance in the workplace.
The Luis Rubiales trial today heard claims from Jenni Hermoso's brother that the then-Spain coach Jorge Vilda spoke of "personal and professional consequences" if she did not publicly agree with Rubiales' version of the kiss after the Women's World Cup final.

It is beyond frustrating that Arsenal are no closer to an attacking signing than they were when Gabriel Jesus first went down injured. We're leaving it until the last minute again!

January 29, 2025 at 3:47 AM
Wins like this, where Arsenal barely muster a goal, show just how desperately we need a new attacking signing.

A front line of Havertz, Martinelli, and Trossard won't deliver us trophies. And Nwaneri can't save the day at his age.

We gotta bring in a new face to provide more G/A.

The idea that Man City could possibly fall outside of the top 24 UCL clubs and be eliminated is 😋.
January 22, 2025 at 11:41 PM
Arsenal's offense is in dire straits. Saka out for a few more months, and now Gabriel Jesus out for the season?

We'll need to rely on Trossard, Martinelli, and Havertz at CF. It's not sustainable to rely on such inconsistent players. A new face to push the team is needed.
Don't think that could have gone worse. Out of the FA Cup, lost Gabriel Jesus to potentially serious injury, missed a load of chances, missed a penalty, played 30 mins of extra-time ahead of a North London derby, and the heartache of losing a penalty shoot-out.

A disaster of a day.
