Experienced this at a border and it is exactly as humiliating as you would expect.

If Arteta doesn't fancy Norgaard, then we'd better be signing another midfielder (early) in Jan.

I take it back.
Calafiori hurt, per Benge
December 6, 2025 at 3:33 PM
If we managed to escape with no more injuries, I'm kinda happy to forget that game ever happened, as gutting as it was.

The team's shattered but that could conceivably be the last time we lose in the league this season. Only City away is guaranteed to be a tougher test.

Very good team on paper.

I predict the 5 subs will be...

Gyokeres > Rice (Merino drops into midfield

Trossard > Odegaard (Eze moves infield)

MLS > a defender (probably Calafiori, but that depends on Benny)

Martinelli > Saka

Norgaard or Ethan, depending on game state.

Think this is ultimately the sensible decision. If there was really any concern, the risk of losing him for a big chunk of games needed to be the biggest consideration.
No Saliba again. I'm tired Robbie.

Out of interest, in what bucket would you put today's game?

1. Toughest game remaining this season.

2. 2nd toughest.

3. 3rd-5th toughest.

4. 6th-10th.

5. 11th+

It'd be no. 3 for me without the fitness and fixture list stuff. Think it's no. 2 now (though we could be in crisis by Liverpool (h)).

Yep, he wants nothing but deregulating crypto to help his crypto business and scrapping net zero to help his aviation fuel business. Which by pure coincidence are two of our policies.

Much as a draw would sting, we have to recognise how difficult today's going to be.

Given their style and quality, Villa would be a very tricky side at the best of times. But playing away, on two day's rest, with a squad that's a mix of injured, risking injury and only just fit is a nightmare.

Not at all surprised that a fanbase which draws significant numbers from the London Boroughs of Bromley and Croydon will have a Tommy Robinson problem. Safe to say there are some well flaggy enclaves. And then there's the fans whose families white flighted it to Kent back in the day.

My three-point plan for rehabilitating FIFA.

1. Depose Infantino

2. Put his head on a spike.

3. Make the World Cup trophy a solid gold representation of Infantino's head on a spike.

FIFA awards a trophy that appears to celebrate Donald Trump's groping tendencies.

Look at this creep acting like cheese, drugs and the first two seasons of Arrested Development don't exist.
Infantino with a line he's used before: "Fifa is the number-one happiness provider for humanity for over 100 years"

It may sound radical, but if one guy has so much wealth and power that he can use the large newspaper he owns to publicly threaten to ruin a service we all rely on, presumably as a bargaining tactic to get lower rates, we probably need to tax that guy until he can't do that anymore.

But Amazon may give up its long-standing partnership with USPS to deliver packages itself, which could spell disaster for the mail agency.

So (see @klonick.bsky.social last night) today may be the day that the EU Commission fines X for breach of the Digital Services Act (DSA). Busy day for me, and I expect many questions if it happens, so here's an explanation thread in advance.

First of all, a reminder of the provisional decision
