Always love the writing, and it's often the prose, rather than the jokes, that make me smile. "Two teams, deeply flawed, going to win, playing attractive and attacking football, while constantly stepping on rakes" |

Northern - "There is now, apparently, a bot that exists that can take every porn video you’ve watched for the last ten years, calibrate your tastes, and produce the perfect 30 minute film for you."
Can you source this!? Would love to know more. Sounds odd I know, but I assure my interest is professional! |

Enjoyable read. Only thing I'd add is I saw the 4321 become a 4312 at times, and in the most recent game (not covered by this?) it was very much a 4231.
It's my impression that in the first games opponents have made easy progress up our flanks as it takes time for the widest midfielder to get out to the ball, and our fullback has held their position. While that's galling to watch, it may be working defensively to some extent as I can't recall goals being conceded from there yet. |

Watching the goals just now, just wanted to add the thought that Moses could have done better for their second, had he not let their two runners get inside him. Had he positioned better I tihnk he could have increased his chances of winning that header / stopping them get a good header. Thanks for the report. Essential reading as always. |

Phenomenal report, thank you. Many great lines and images, but I want to pick out 'like an angry Toby Jug' because it's what I've always thought about our Neil, but never knew I did, nor quite managed to put it into words, and you've crystalised it right there. |

Hemed has been gash up to now, but I actually thought he was better yesterday. He won some headers and held it up a few times and even sprinted which I haven't seen before. I think he hasn't been fully fit and was brought back too early (obviously one of SM's faves). This was by no means a good performance, but I didn't think it was especially worse than anyone else's this time. Thanks as ever for the report. |

I mistakenly went to a thing at the Barbican afterwards in which a squeaky man in tight trousers played music composed by a computer on a harpsichord in an attempt to bring to life Douglas Hofstadt's concept of 'strange loops' with which I was already well aware having seen a long ball headed back into midfield, passed back to a centreback or keeper and hoofed up the middle again at least 288 times in 96 minutes. In exchange for these long-booked pleasures I endured four days of digs and snide remarks from the love of my life who had wanted to sup prosecco surrounded by Damien Hirst skulls (Sheff W?) and Tracey Emin neon that day rather than look after our children. I've had better Saturdays. |
