Playing footie with my 8 yr old son. He scores and says "no wonder Gerard kept scoring on you". I've put him up for adoption.

Having played with Stuart Pearce who tried to run off a broken leg I find Pepe's rolling around hard to stomach.

Cyrille Regis is deserving of every bit of praise he is and has received as an icon in English football and for black players. But he was so much more. Kids like me, the world over, were able to dream thanks to his fearless conviction. RIP.

Seriously. I really don’t know how you listen to what I say on @talkSPORT and come away with “blame Jurgen Klopp”. This is beyond trolling belief.

Whether Mexico 'deserved' the result or not is totally irrelevant. That call was as bad as they come. Conspiracy theorist rejoice.

November 16th. 20 years ago today Jamaica qualified for their first World Cup. 12 years ago it was T&T’s turn. I’m feeling nostalgic. Want, as a fan, to see a Caribbean team in the WC again. I’ll bake a cake.

If a small club does it v a big club it's "19th century football". If a big club does it v a smaller club it's "tactical genius". #confused.

Couple thoughts on #TOTvLIV- Mane on Son WAS a penalty IMO. BUT, Pochettino has been the most vocal opponent to VAR in the PL, so he gets no sympathy from me. Zero. All that being said, LFC were by far the better team. By far. did I mention by far? Deserved the 3 points fully.

GK NERD TWEET ALERT: On the one one save from Navas v Messi, most keepers would need to get their right foot down to change direction (I know I would!). All his weight is on his left leg and he's still able to check back. YouTube Navas's training drills to see why he can do that.

I picked a draw in LFC v ARS. Seems I had more faith in AFC and Arsene Wenger than Arsene had in himself. Wenger out-Wengered himself.

T&T are a very good counter attacking team. Defense needs to regain shape quicker when we lose the ball. If we do we will qualify for WC.
