If you’ve managed the chaos that is Real Madrid and you think Chelsea is the answer for your next move, you need your head examined.

Not having this discourse that the Premier League’s physical and mental exertions mean conservative football has to be a given when we’ve actually experienced the opposite. The style is absolutely a choice. Manchester City and Liverpool were involved in the most exacting, no-margin-for-error title races but still played ridiculously good football. Pochettino’s Tottenham were a marvel too. The 2018-19 Champions League was one for the ages: Tottenham 4-4 Man City quarter-final The Spurs 3-3 Ajax semi CORNER TAKEN QUICKLY in the most insane comeback What about the intensity of that LFC-MCFC quarter-final in 2017-18? And Liverpool beating Roma SEVEN! - SIX! in the semis. 2021-22: Chelsea 4-5 Real Madrid, Benfica 4-6 Liverpool, City 5-6 Real Madrid The list goes on. For so long it was held against both PSG and Bayern that they wilted when it mattered in the Champions League because their domestic seasons were a walkover. They didn’t have tough games to prime them. We can’t pick and choose narratives when it suits.

Man’s girlfriend is very annoyed that the free press she champions, despite having emigrated to a dictatorship without one, is investigating her boyfriend for stuff she says people who aren’t her boyfriend, like Angela Rayner, should resign over.

We’re now going to see a sickening display of the media and football establishment giving him all the plaudits in leaving that they couldn’t bring themselves to give him whilst he was here. Fuck them. Best in the world and he was ours and we always knew.

That was utter garbage

Israel can confirm who it killed, exactly where and at what time, to the centimetre for praise. But blow up children by mistake. Fuck Israel.

This is a blatant lie. In July 2024, the energy cap was £1,568. It's now £1,641. Bills have gone up under this Prime Minister. The £117 he talks about has just been moved from your energy bill to your tax bill. And yet he claims he’s saving us money. It’s outrageous.

BREAKING NEWS:⚽️⚽️⚽️⚽️ Haringey Council have confirmed that Tottenham Hotspur’s fire safety certificate has been renewed for another 12 months after observing the perfect and prompt evacuation of their stadium in the 81st minute of their game against Arsenal today.

They will now 😏

Some corrections: You inherited 2% inflation. It doubled in 12 months after you became Chancellor. It is still 50% above the rate you inherited and 50% above target. It should fall to target 2% this summer. So two years to get back to where you started! What’s to boast about that? Interest rates have been falling everywhere. UK cuts, which you don’t control, have been fewer and smaller because of your inflation record. We still have highest interest rate in G7. The Bank has made some cuts for the simple reason the economy is flat on its back. Well done. Borrowing is slowly falling from a very high base. Almost six years after the pandemic-induced recession, we’re still borrowing around 4% GDP. And borrowing costs are the highest in the G7. Retail sales are up in recent months. We’ll see how long that’s sustained. But the hospitality and construction industries are in crisis. Plus our massive services sector is stagnant. UK fastest G7 economy? That’s simply a bare-faced lie. We grew by 0.1% in Q3 2025; and another 0.1% in Q4. End of.

Absolute rat. Arsenal played him every week and they knew what he was being accused of by multiple women. Horrible horrible football club.

Mikel Arteta Probably the most unlikeable manager in the history of the Premier League, nobody comes close to him Arsenal fans aside, every other fan base despises him, and for good reason Firstly he does not know what “stay in your managerial box” means Secondly he contributed massively to how boring the Premier League is these days with his set piece tactics. We are at the stage where most teams are now doing the same thing resulting in a poor viewership for the mutual fans Most importantly is how he handed Thomas Partey. The news broke years ago of his “alleged”multiple rape accusations. Instead of doing the right like Man City and suspending the player he acted like nothing was going on. “Thomas will come back stronger” “Thomas has a minor injury” No mate Thomas Partey was knee deep in accusations and you didn’t act in the correct and proper manner Arsenal fans ask yourself one thing. How would you feel if one of the victims was your relative? Once Arteta is sacked in the summer his legacy won’t be for uniting the fan base and making the club challenge again It will be how he handled the Thomas Partey situation

At the same time as Arsenal were sacking their kit man of 20 years for making pro-Palestine, anti-genocide posts on social media they were protecting, and playing, a rapist

Great observation

Every woman I know who rides has a story about a guy who couldn't handle getting passed Sarah came home from a ride last week and told me about some lad who caught up to her on country lanes, didn't say a word, just sat on her wheel. Uninvited. Silent. Out in the middle of nowhere. I don't think this is a cycling etiquette debate. That's just creepy. Week before that, she passed someone. Just riding at her endurance pace. She got maybe 200 meters ahead when he came sprinting back around her, clearly twisting himself inside out, zone 4 or higher, just to get back in front. I mentioned this to a few female friends who ride. Every single one had similar stories. I've created two new characters in my head. The uninvited wheelsucker & the fragile ego guy who can't let a woman stay ahead so he burns matches he doesn't have just to restore some imagined natural order. I find myself now (sitting on the toilet 😂) scanning Strava files searching for the flat endurance ride with one massive power spike One of the characters has struck 😂 If your sense of self requires every woman you encounter to be slower than you, you might need to reexamine that identity. Wake up call, girls are good at cycling! I won't last 5km in a female world tour race. This is a public service announcement post - don't be one of "those guys" You think nobody notices. Everyone notices. The women you're creeping out notice. Other riders notice and avoid you. Cycling culture talks about respect. About looking out for each other. Competence isn't gendered. Performance isn't gendered. Only insecurity is.

If you go down with a hamstring injury that early in a game; it’s down to pure negligence

Is Gomez a concussion protocol?

The mentality of these players under pressure and when the chips are down is just shocking
