anyway, wise of Arsenal to keep their powder dry on the forward signing in the knowledge that Håland was about to be on the market.

I like to imagine there are people who don’t know the company Sage so when they see “powered by sage” pop up on the score bug they think of the herb.

here’s how I’d go tonight: Kepa Salmon-Mosquera-Gabriel-Hincapie MLS-Zubi Dowman-Eze-Noni Merino (obviously it’ll actually be Gyok up front.)

really very funny that Barney Ronay has ascribed yesterday’s refereeing debacle to refs not having degrees. the most Guardian, Lib Dem brained opinion going.

whatever about the necessity of Arsenal looking at job cuts (always impossible to say from the outside given football clubs are designed to lose money anyway)—it’s clearly a prelude to more price rises. which I think football should expect more generally.

here’s how I’d go against Napoli: Raya White*-Konsa-Gabriel-Hincapie Bruno-Zubimendi Saka-Merino-Tzolis *would rest White for Mosquera if he’s fit again

thought we were markedly the better side and good for the win, but it was hard work and could have gone another way, so that is a gratifying one.

maybe it’s an advantage to play Chelsea today because they haven’t sorted their defence yet. I kinda see it the other way around. would be much better to play them later, once the rhythm of the season has settled in, flaws start to get made obvious, and injuries constrain selection.

what a great lad, and what an underrated player. wish him all the best.

bit of a damp squid to end the window, and I don’t think it reflects massively well on the recruitment ops that they’ve missed all their big targets. but in terms of the overall of it all, I think it was…ok?

I think we are ultimately right not to bring in guys for the sake of bringing in guys. but we are simultaneous injuries to MØ and Tzolis away from some difficult selections.

surely rather than this being a both sidesing (which would be a hilariously bad idea) it’s just someone looking at the Wicked movies’ premise and, like, stealing the core idea.
