Unfortunately my job at VICE is among those affected by layoffs. I built and led VICE World News + VICE News socials, TikTok (3.6M) & IG (3M). In our last month my team and I brought in 160M+ views. If you want to grow your socials and get into vertical video please reach out.

@FootballCliches Sorry if previously covered, but I heard Akanji described yesterday as ‘taking the ball under his spell.” The first Google result for the phrase also applies to Varane. Do you need “magic feet” to emit a spell? Or can it apply to any type of player? Doesn’t sit well with me.

We're recording 𝗙𝗢𝗢𝗧𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗖𝗟𝗜𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗦 on Monday, it's the 𝐴𝑑𝑗𝑢𝑑𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑃𝑎𝑛𝑒𝑙, it sounds like Jonathan Pearce is close to getting his own official Corner, but we'll take your correspondence on absolutely anything. Get in touch!

@SoVeryBritish Batter Sea Cod’s Home.

What’s the best takeaway name you’ve ever seen?

@FootballCliches From my son’s map of UK wildlife, has any animal ever been more suited to a Richard Keys pronunciation than the humble Manx Shearwater?

The slow decline of the Lloris #TimeToHuGo #THFC #MCITOT

@DraftAnswers @alexanderhunn The main context is that I only got Ben Mee on waivers on Tuesday and that Alex dropped Solanke last Thursday. Selling him his own trash. It’s not as bad as the twisted knickers from the other 10 in the league suggest though, I agree!

@SJCullington @alexanderhunn Alex has done you there. Salah flopping RoS

Toggatrax Trade. Get: Tarkowski, Mee + Solanke Give: Salah What would you do? And please give this thought for a second...👀 #HelpMyFantraxDraft

@alexanderhunn Alex’s ‘ticket contacts’…

We can lose a lot of things about this photo of me there, but #WeCantLoseLeadmill 🕺

@hunncut But you love Grease…

@TheFFChaps @FantraxEPL @the_innergeek @DraftAnswers @drafterthoughts @draftgenie @JWillDraft @draftiola Not ideal but I think something we’ll look to do! The theory of my defender conceding a 90th minute penalty at 0-0 and me hoping he gets a red rather than a yellow isn’t something I have the headspace to accommodate! Thanks for the quick reply.

@SJCullington @FantraxEPL @the_innergeek @DraftAnswers @drafterthoughts @draftgenie @JWillDraft @draftiola The way the 'clean sheet' stats are programmed within the Fantrax portal doesn't allow for the person who got sent off to "remain on the pitch" to collect the goals against. The way to do that would be to manually take the 6 clean sheet points off the total score for that team.

Football journalists, if you’re not going with the headline “Fulham nips in for Areola”, can you really be satisfied with your work? #OhhLaAreola #Fulham #PremierLeague #TransferTalk

.@FootballCliches Just me that thinks this sounds like she’s handed in a transfer request?

This is a bit like losing your virginity at 30. You’re understandably happy but everyone else feels a bit sick, unimpressed and wishes you’d stop talking about it... #Liverpool #PremierLeague

@TFTimeMachine A running series of Andy reporting the latest events from Sunderland, horses, murder suicides and all, surely needs to be called ‘Wear Window’?

Any ideas on negative key passes? Passing to opposition who shoot? Don’t mind it one bit, but first time I’ve seen it! @Fantrax @FantraxEPL @TheFFChaps @draft_fpl @draftiola

“Hello, my name is Mr Elad, and I come, er... from someplace far away! Yes, that'll do. Anyway, I... I say we invest that money back out of Bury!” #BuryFC #Bury #saveburyfc #stevedale

Fair to say there’s no messing about when it comes to trades with us, the trust has gone after 5 years together so if it’s not legally binding we’re not interested. Signed, sealed, delivered.
