Looking at Darren Fletcher's analysis on the BBC, it would seem yesterday was some sort of tactical masterclass by the Rice Krispie kid. And there was me thinking Liverpool just didn't play well.

Manchester United have reached an agreement to sign England centre-back Harry Maguire from Leicester for £80m - a world-record fee for a defender. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/48989647

Sorry it's the Mail but I've just spotted this and it's too good not to share. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7049407/Ex-Everton-winger-Andy-van-der-Meyde-brands-club-s-urges-El-Ghazi-not-join-them.html

I really don't get this obsession with Mo and the amount of publicity he gets. Most of the media attention this season has been about how he's a cheat, a diver and not as good as he was last season. I reckon Mo could have done without it.

Don't really understand why he needed to change Arya to Ayoze though. He hadn't changed any of the other references.

Not sure which thread this should go on but this is a great magazine cover.

And they bring on someone who only cost £60 million.

See Meghan Markle is walking round Birkenhead in a red coat. Outrage incoming...

So I received a LFC desktop calendar for Christmas and only just got around to opening it. Nice photo of Karius on the January page followed by Lallana for Feburary. Don't think it'll be on my desk properly until March. (Mo)

To be fair, I’m on my iPad and the screenshot isn’t showing up for some reason.

Looking at the BBC website, everyone else should go home now. England will win the World Cup because they are beating Panama.

Feel sorry for her as it's been basically going on all their married life. She turned him into the global superstar by introducing to people (like her manager)who were able to promote him. It does bug me when people go on about him being one of the greatest players ever. You could argue he was the worst player in United's midfield as Keane, Scholes and Giggs were better than him.

Trying to look on the bright side, I'd be very surprised if Mo wanted to move to Madrid while Ramos was still there.
