During Covid there was a trend of football fans asking their their non-football-fan relatives to name an XI of players they knew. It was a fun, silly game, so I asked my mum to do one because I missed her.
Two years since her passing feels like a good time to share it. ❤️

This might be the greatest ever community note on the app
Cristiano Ronaldo has never lost a match in which he scored the winning goal.

Community note
Factual Error.
Despite the wording of this tweet making it seem impossible for Ronaldo to lose despite scoring the winning goal, this is still incorrect.
Ronaldo scored the winning goal in a 1-0 defeat to Grenada in 2013. He scored this winning goal in the wrong net.

What a job Frank Lampard is doing up there, by the way. Took over with the club 16th, 5 points off the drop zone and has taken them all the way to 16th, 4 points off the drop zone. 👏

I don’t think Wilf is trying to throw anyone under the bus here - he’s just very emotional and honest. Still, doubt Vieira will appreciate this

The problem with this type of shock humour comedian now is that the jokes are like, fine, 6/10 that nobody would care to complain about. But prefacing the whole bit with 'I'm not allowed to say these things!' sucks 99.9% of the humour out of the joke.

Men of a certain age think these stories sound romantic but they actually just sound really fucking weird
Arteta: “I said to Havertz: things are hard at the beginning. When I met my wife, at the beginning it was hard to conquer her. It was hard, I had to try and message her, and go, and go”. 🔴⚪️ #AFC
“And at the end when she says ‘yes, we can be together…’ it’s beautiful”.

Why has she tagged Martin Keown
Good news. Only another 9 months of Starmer as PM.
He can’t survive the historic humiliation of Labour being smashed in Wales. They may not get a single Senedd seat.
The question is which of the numpties on the frontbench replaces him?
Bereft of leaders.

How can you achieve (almost) everything there is to win in your discipline and still be this insecure
Cristiano Ronaldo: “My decision to join Saudi clubs was 100% crucial to bring in new top players. It’s a fact”. 🇸🇦
“When I joined Juventus, Serie A was dead and then after I signed… it was revived. Wherever Cristiano goes he generates higher interest”.

The best part of this, other than De Jong dismantling their point, and Keys’ pronunciation of ‘FULham,’ is that Keys also calls the Fulham keeper ‘Jay Leno’.

If England win at Old Trafford, the broadcasters would be wise to agree a deal to show the fifth and decisive Test on free-to-air as well - would be a record audience
Sky's coverage of cricket is first class. But lack of free-to-air matches is a serious issue. Previous Channel 4 coverage had 300% more viewers than subscription channel. England’s 2021 Test series defeat in India brought in 9million UK viewers. Sport must remain accessible.

Feels like a lot of England fans are so dug in to being anti Southgate that they are no longer able to enjoy the wins properly. There is a middle ground, where you can have grievances with some selections, and still enjoy the ride. Just relax a bit.

It’s actually far from his most mental selection. Swap Ramsey and Felix and it’s just about passable. Still love the commitment to just getting anyone who scored into the XI

What a finish from Almiron though
Five years ago today, Jamal Khashoggi, a brave and outspoken journalist, walked into the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Inside, a team of killers strangled him & cut up his body with a bone-saw. According to US officials, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman approved the murder.
