Matt 🚀

It was a wonderful ride x

@LeGrove Not quite sure when Rice or Zubi are ever gonna get a rest this season either 😬 Loving the result but surely Norgaard could have had some minutes in the last 20

@MrBoak Totally unnecessary. Should have started Madueke

Rotation is such a weak spot for Arteta. Bayern is important, but not on the level Chelsea is. 16 points landed top 8 last season: we have 12 now, with 4 games left. Arsenal smacked Spurs with insane intensity… not sure how you get to those levels on Sunday with this lineup. All the more problematic because CFC have had more rotation and had an easier weekend game. It is what it is, but this sort of high risk dice rolling is what lands us massive injury issues every season.

@LordGrimdark Better than a kick in the fruits!

Fancy that...

@LeGrove There was a great piece in The Times a couple of weeks back which highlighted why and how LFC got Slot. And also flagged how his teams don’t tend to fade at season finale and rarely get injuries. The manager’s role is key in all these things. Worth a read if you get 10 mins

Kai out for the season. Forget the January window. The biggest problem we have is Arteta’s inability to keep players fit, even when his team is depleted, even when he’s taking them on a trips designed to recuperate player minds and bodies. A disastrous pattern.

@LeGrove Get your kit on Pedro, you’re up

@pathumster @catmurray Sorry for delay, I’m on daddydaycare for the summer holidays so tricky to meet up this week. And away next week! Rubbish

@MrBoak @catmurray I’m free tomorrow (Wednesday) so will probably be around the old stomping grounds!

X hit me up with your best family friendly hotels near London please 🙌🏼

@pathumster @catmurray What are your movements this week matey?

@pathumster @catmurray Ah maaaan I’m on holiday from next Tuesday 😭

@IainLiddle @bindi Lovely little piece that (and monster report I’ve not read yet but have lined up for Friday morning) Hope you’re both well

@bindi far too kind, Bindo!

I loved reading this and generally love anything @IainLiddle writes. He's also good with the talking, one of the wittiest people I know. One of my favourite people to work with, has been since our days together at "The Twits". 🐦

@brucedaisley Great intelligencer piece that. Fascinating individual old Ray - did you see he tweaked the chances of WW3 up to 50/50 since the Hamas attack on Israel? Rather hoping he’s got that one wrong!

@pathumster @catmurray Came to town with no word to his old homies… 👀

@catmurray Good mate! Just got back from a lovely European Summer. How’re you?? You’ve got kids now !! 🥰

If you were born the year that Red Red Wine came out... UB40! 🤡

@ged You’re welcome

stepping onto the Disney Studios lot never gets old 🎥 🍿

@olisnoddy Yep 😢

@MrBoak Yeah, well there is the Twitter that was, and the Twitter that actually exists now

Twitter sharing ad revenue with creators is both super interesting, maybe genius, and very complex. Are incentives aligned? If I go out and get myself ratioed 24/7, do I earn loads? If brands don’t like being around certain content, how are they going to feel about funding it?

@olisnoddy Barely anyone saw your post because you don’t pay to be verified. The new system weighs heavily on those who are prepare to pay to be noticed. Generally these are people I’m not that fussed about hearing from. I preferred the old system.

@MrBoak Seriously though, what’s the aversion here? Anything Elon / Twitter does now is inherently terrible?
