This whole debate is so dumb. I propose we all start referring to vilk, veat, vausages and vurgers until they're the accepted terms and the meat/dairy industry can stop whining

If the person becomes a citizen of their new country they are an immigrant. If not, they are an expat

Not the main point, but worth acknowledging that the top 3 are all summer recruits

Just because they're not talking about doesn't mean they wouldn't act on it given the chance

Honestly I always assumed a British person had to use their British passport to enter Britain. Making that the actual rule makes a lot of sense, but it does sound massively rushed and very poorly communicated

Especially if they want to make 'screentime' a thing... how is this child basically the same age she was back in 2010?

It bothers me that TS 1 to 3 happened in 'real time', but since then time has barely passed at all. Presumably Andy is still at the college he went off to back in TS3

At 58:53 it's 0-2 and Gabriel plays a completely unnecessary long ball to the left wing, when all we needed to do was keep possession and kill the game. Wolves win the ball, then a corner, and less than 90 seconds later it's in our net. Unforgivable

Not allowing dual nationality in the globalised 21st century is barbaric. The EU should enforce it in all members

Another half with zero shots on target. Teams that don't test the goalkeeper don't score goals

The bit that's revealing is he simply made up some numbers. Maybe 12 million extra people in four years *would* be a concern for national infrastructure. But it's not true. So if you don't know the truth, maybe you don't get to make provocative statements

Weirdly I've not seen any international coverage of this, but the Socialist candidate destroyed the far right guy in the Portuguese presidential runoff yesterday. So that's nice πŸ‡΅πŸ‡Ή

Well, it exists.

Paperback sales peeled away by ebooks, audiobooks and hardbacks? I wish! It's all people watching videos and playing games instead of reading, surely...?

Can they tell a story? Can they explain what they're trying to achieve, and how that will make the country better? That's been Starmer's biggest failing

I met a guy who voted for brexit because he wanted the EU to collapse and a new more connected Europe government rebuilt in its place. Magical thinking

Don't forget Villa & Wolves at home, also Palace in the cup. We got away with them all, but the trend is upsetting

Great analysis. So many times I've been wondering why our centre halves are again being asked to thread the ball through 10 opposition players on the edge of the box while our forwards stand around waiting. Just doesn't make sense

And I really like Zubi, but he's been caught out in a dangerous area like that many times

Half the goals scored against us this season have come from Arsenal messing around with the ball in defence. I cannot understand why they put so much pressure on themselves!
