Satisfying noise when it hits the net to round it all off. Brilliant goal.

Same. Must be an issue.

That’s a bonkers take from him. The violence and racism was absolutely horrifying. It was a minor miracle there weren’t more deaths during that period.

Waiting for the first article when a Gen Z trashes Gen Alpha for being lazy/feckless/woke (delete as appropriate)

Worm juice is seriously good fertiliser. It can only be for that. Wonder what he’s growing? Definitely should have been asked more questions. That’s two in a row they’ve dropped the ball after the moustache mascara debacle.

Tremendous piece. There’s a wider question about clubs and place and that sense of belonging, given the global buyout of the league. It’s funny that West Ham seem the worst afflicted despite their ownership actually being local. Globalisation working in funny ways.

Up there at the weekend. No sign unfortunately. Didn’t see much mind you!

Trying to work out if Wenger was confused or scared. Or both.

Brilliant episode. Loved that team. Could sense how much it felt to Luis, his emotion was palpable. Hope he was ok. He spoke about the players and their pain but his own could be felt, I thought. ❤️

This will keep me in chuckles for some time. ‘Psychologically monstered…’ 😆
