This is all deflection. He has no idea how to reopen the Strait so he’s trying to blame Europe for not doing its bit. If he knows that that’s what he’s doing then the damage to transatlantic relations should be limited. However, if he actually convinces himself of it, it’s a different matter.

@thearsfamily97 I'm old enough to remember when Scottish clubs who have vastly smaller budgets have been on the end of a hiding from these clubs & the English media, pundits etc eviscerated Scottish football. Looking forward to hearing similar for the self-proclaimed greatest league in the world

@DeadlineDayLive Best midfielder in the league. Only a matter of time before he joins a big European club.

QatarEnergy’s Ras Laffan Industrial City to the north of Doha, Qatar's main site for the production of liquefied natural gas and gas-to-liquid, as well as the largest export terminal for LNG in the world, has been heavily targeted tonight by ballistic missiles fired by Iran. Extensive damage to the site and several facilities are being reported by QatarEnergy.

In terms of financial resources, competitiveness and depth of quality, the Premier League’s strength is unquestionable. And Arsenal, nine points clear, are a top team.

But this Champions League knockout stage has brought sobering illustrations of a gulf in attacking/creative quality between Real Madrid (Vinicius Jnr, Valverde etc — with Mbappe, Bellingham, Rodrygo injured), PSG (Kvaratskhelia, Barcola, Dembele, Doué, those midfielders, those full backs), Bayern (Kane, Olise, Musiala, Diaz etc) ... and teams whose main creative/attacking stars have struggled for inspiration in the Premier League this season.
There are clearly other factors — intensity of the schedule, intensity of the matches, the return to a more physical/attritional playing style — but the lack of elite-level creative/attacking quality in the Premier League has been a concern all season. It has absolutely been underlined so far in the Champions League knock-out stage, where Manchester City (second best defensive record in the PL this season) and Chelsea (joint third best) respectively conceded five goals to Real Madrid and eight goals to PSG.
I wouldn't rule out Arsenal to win the Champions League because, unlike the others, they have an outstanding defence. But right now, with Manchester City and Liverpool in a state of expensive flux and Chelsea fixated on an utterly flawed recruitment strategy, it has hard this season to look at the top end of the Premier League and enjoy or applaud the quality of the football. In the Champions League knock-out stage, a drop in quality, as well as a couple of soft underbellies, has been exposed

@Tarbie82 @KevinSm47300596 @Zilch0284 I reckon he would love to continue playing for Scotland. The move likely determined by the financial incentive. Can't blame him for going for good money to secure himself/family
English

@KevinSm47300596 @Zilch0284 Close to impossible to select a player for 6N and Autumn Internationals when they are playing in Japan. Dempsey will have known that when he decided to move there. I'm sure Townsend (and whoever comes after him) would rather focus on players that want to play for Scotland.

Well this is shit.
If he’s played his last game for Scotland, then he’s been a complete revelation, proper modern day number 8 and a mean bastard. Will be a hard hole to fill.

📰 We can confirm that Jack Dempsey will leave the club at the end of the season in order to take up a playing opportunity overseas. More: tinyurl.com/2rxrvrj4 Thank you, Demmo 🫡 #OnceAWarriorAlwaysAWarrior
