Important context that he walked into a better squad than probably any LFC manager ever on day one.

Defeat means that Slot boasts 62 wins out of 100 games in charge of Liverpool. No manager in the club’s history has bettered that total in their first 100 games in charge. Slot level with Sir Kenny Dalglish. nytimes.com/athletic/70961…

@KeithCostigan He's not a 6 in any system, lack of one is half the issue with this team

🚨🟥Ryan Gravenberch will receive a total salary of €100 million, spread over the next six years, negotiated by his agent José Fortes Rodriguez.
Other performance-related bonuses can still be added on top.

Exactly 25 years ago today, I scored my first — and only — professional goal.
Contrary to what I believed at the time, goalkeepers are not allowed to handle the ball in both penalty areas.
The goal was disallowed and I was sent off — still it earned me legendary status. 😉

So much to enjoy here. The instinctive hoof upfield, and the keeper losing his mind completely. Lovely stuff.

The US spent 70 years building a country optimized for cars instead of people. This is what that looks like at full resolution.
MetLife Stadium sits on 2.1 million square feet of parking. 28,000 spaces. The parking lots are larger than the stadium itself. The entire Meadowlands complex was purpose-built so that the only way a human being can reach it is inside a 4,000-pound metal box. The New Jersey State Police printed that sign because pedestrians were never part of the design.
And here’s where it gets interesting: the 2026 World Cup Final is being played at this stadium in five months. FIFA’s biggest event on Earth, hosted at a venue where walking is literally illegal. International fans from countries where you stroll to the stadium from a pub three blocks away are about to encounter a place where the nearest hotel requires a car to travel a distance you can see with your eyes.
The US has 700 million to 2 billion parking spaces. Eight parking spots for every car in the country. Parking lots cover more than 5% of all developed land, an area larger than Rhode Island and Delaware combined. Minimum parking requirements forced every building, every stadium, every shopping center to dedicate more square footage to storing empty vehicles than to serving the humans inside. American cities didn’t accidentally become unwalkable. They were zoned that way.
During the recent Club World Cup at MetLife, only 12.5% of fans used public transit to reach the stadium. The other 87.5% drove. Now imagine that ratio flipping for the World Cup, when the majority of attendees will be international visitors without cars. NJ Transit is spending $100 million to try to move 20,000 people per hour through a single transfer point at Secaucus Junction, a system that already had door malfunctions and 13-minute delays during games with 29,000 fans. Scale that to 82,500.
The sign in this hotel lobby is American car culture in a single frame: we built the richest country on Earth, then made it illegal to walk across it.
