Totally see Saliba, Gabriel, maybe even Ødegaard and Saka looking at options away this season. Think we're going to sell at least one of them... And not challenge again for a few years.

A point was never going to be enough. Time to put Saka in bubble-wrap, ban him from international play, buy an actual forward, sell #5, buy a midfielder, figure out how to play Saka and Nwaneri at the same time, get a backup keeper, sell about 6 players, figure out the left side, keep the defense

Fact of the matter is, in a Premier League with teams owned by actual countries you have a small window when you can win anything. The Kroenkes lousy history of sports ownership (outside of 1 dodgy NFL championship) does not inspire confidence

This is climate arson, yes, but also the entire value proposition of Tesla, the reason for its insane stock price, is that it would end up the Amazon of electric cars: the only real game in town. Killing off non-Tesla electric car infrastructure is a gift to Musk.

It’s almost like having abortion options are an important part of health care 🤔 Physicians can’t be afraid to perform critical procedures to save a woman’s life just because the government doesn’t understand women’s health issues and has tied our hands in some states. #Medsky

It was not unreasonable to expect Kai Havertz to remain fit in the second half of this season, given his injury record. But it was still a huge gamble, and it has already backfired badly on Arsenal. #AFC rolled the dice and now they must pay the price. www.telegraph.co.uk/football/202...
