Those little touches from Kostas before he passes when he pulls the ball towards his right. No angle to play it forward. Utter momentum killing shite. So easy to read. Am open invite for the press to push up on the backline.

Trent on at half time please.

Jones still doesn't look fully fit. Off the pace.

Nunez been a non factor since winning that free kick.

Get Kostas off at half time. Not with it at all.

Their keeper looks poo. I see a few fuck ups tonight by him.

Should really consider trying a shot on target at some point then 

Head in the game, please, Kostas...

Damn, Elliot, Damn!! 

Unlucky...

FFS

Great, from Jones.

Thank fuck for them fucking about with it.

Holy shit, a properly run advantage!!!

Give the ref a pay rise.

Neat bit of play from Gakpo on the break

Got the first line right at least...

Anyway, beyond the activist spin, I quite like this testimony from the report, hopefully the service improvements help more young ppl get space for the right reflection. There's certainly plenty of cause for concern in the report (leadership, even beyond gids, and the mprg safeguarding concerns pretty damning in terms of process failures), just confusing why so many anti-trans voices seem to want to overlook that evidence in favour of conflating the findings with other related issues.

There are like six reports in the document really, the Cass report, three York reports (maybe more actually, but they're pretty directly reflected in the main body so I didn't dwell on them), the CSU quant analysis and the MPRG audit report. All interesting, none of them answer everything you'd hope, mainly due to the lack of linked data.

Mac Allister is great a double pivot player, so he offers discipline and an ability to add to the attack when there is security behind him. And you can put another creative player ahead of him. 

 

In our system, that's whoever is playing on the right, mostly Szoboszlai, and then you have the front 3, who are goal getters. If you had another creative player in the front 3 like Wirtz, it would likely get redundant, and you're losing some goal threat.

 

I broadly agree, although I think Wirtz would increase our goal threat. Obviously, assuming he'd physically adapt to the league, got a great strike on him. My main thought on him is that if we were to sell Salah, I'd factor him into the plans, with Dom moving more to the right forward role.

Shame we're playing tonight, I'd quite like to watch the Leverkusen and Lille games to see a few players against prem opposition (Yoro and David as well).

So, the answer is try to get Mac Allister into the attacking third on a more consistent basis. Sound.

I'm not reading all that to see what I already know. Current economic systems tend to benefit the already wealthy. No shit. 

Doesn't mean real people don't rely on them.

Musiala and Wirtz are similar to each other but nothing like Odegaard.

Wow. Thanks for the insight. 

Care to elaborate? The former more dribbling focused than dictating play with quick passes? But when we're talking about creative players in the final third, that can creat goalscoring opportunity, they are all capable of filling the same role. 

Anyway, for us it's probably as much about getting the most out of Mac Allister and Dom. Not a single season process, but a good start.

My heart bleeds. Not sure how I'll get over it.

Oh well. I'm over it now. 

The biggest claimant was always the prince of Wales. Don't know if he's still getting that cash with his new role...

But it doesn't change the fact that these payments are also vital to small holdings that have always been a big part of how the country (used to) feed itself. It's part of our economy that is quite deliberately being wiped out in favour of import markets that, again, primarily benefit the wealthy.

Wirtz seems the obvious answer. Probably about as realistic a signing as Odegaard as well...

One step ADHD diagnosis for blokes is to count the number of toilet rolls they have on the go at any given time. More than one suggests a behavioural pattern of being easily distracted...

(this might not be sufficient for a full diagnosis)

I think you're pretty lucky up there with the local options, I don't think I've ever had dim sum tbh, quite like the look of it, but not many options down here and when I was in the South East it generally lost out to other options.

You know fully well I identify as Chinese on occasion.

That's ridiculous, everyone knows that it's a type of traditional Chinese dumpling and in Cantonese cuisine, it is usually served as a dim sum snack. The cognoscenti- like me- also know that in addition to accompanying the Chinese diaspora, a variation of shumai also appears in Japan as shūmai (焼売), and various southeast Asian countries and Australia as dim sim.

Hard to forget since As described by historical materials, shaomai was served in tea houses as a secondary product.^[2][9]

I stumbled across the NHS dataset tracking this last year while doing some research for work and I have never seen a more clearly broken pathway. There is no capacity at all, totally underfunded and over utilised.

Referral guidance needs an overhaul (and I feel safe in the assumption that NICE have done a good job, it's just the landscape has changed).

Now, back to Jota. I don't like him. You dickheads can simply get over it instead of digging out posts from years ago where I think x player might be good.

Hahaha, just on a wind up mate calm down. 

£20m was £15m too much.
