Been having a bit of a lousy day but just remembered the game from yesterday and it's cheered me right up.

I think that's a penalty but I'm more than happy for it not to be given.

Arteta needs an ankle bracelet that administers an electrical shock every time he goes outside the technical area.

Why's Tonali on the PSG touchline?

Raya's pretty good isn't he.

Fully agree with this mind.

A foul with no attempt to play the ball equals yellow card. A foul with attempt to play the ball does not necessarily equal a yellow card depending on severity.

I think just a penalty is fair there. It's an attempt for the ball.

I think after 30 seconds he just decided fuck it you had long enough if you wanted to take it.

Haha get in. I'll take the little things.

Booooooooooooo

Be interested to see how he does. I think he's technically limited but perhaps will have more room to breathe in la liga. I wonder if general we might be entering an era where the PL is so physical and well drilled that we see players struggle but flourish outside of it.

It's why at the time when Liverpool and numbers like £100m were being banded about I'd have been more than happy with a sale. He's always been high energy and a good presser. But back then it felt like a purple patch and his end product was lacking. Think over the last 2 seasons this has become quite evident.

Whilst I would have no objection to a fully motivated Gordon staying with us and being part of the squad I can't help but think he thinks he's better than he is. If he is to go then the numbers being quoted sound fair to me and hopefully we also have incomings lined up early as well as outgoings. Main lesson from last season I think was get your business done early.

Went for 4. There were some bright spots in there. The relentlessness of it all eventually caught up with us on top of what now looks like a poor summer (may factors both internal and external).
