@FromAwaysHFX has awoken again from hibernation and gifted us with this masterfully written squad review.
My favourite line, calling Lorenzo the "The pint-sized Parisian"
Jim Beglin would be proud of that one.
Check it out below and enjoy!

@melaniejoly If only the Minister of Foreign Affairs for a major nation had the ability to do anything about it....
English
We are deeply concerned by reports of an Israeli military operation in Rafah. It would have devastating impact, putting the lives of Palestinians and foreign nationals,including 🇨🇦s, seeking refuge in grave danger and making the vital delivery of humanitarian aid dangerous. 1/2
English
@nonewthing Lol so close to a post that doesn't seem cracked af and then you have to go and add the last bit to be annoying as hell
English
You need to understand why I say what I say.
—TAA is a No. 1 progression machine. He singlehandedly solves the buildup for Liverpool
—Then he produces creative numbers to rival KDB
—Then he handles the setpieces and
—Adds value defensively
Without him, Klopp doesn't touch Pep.

@Stuart_Watson Pablo must have a kid who is almost the right age right?
English
#itfc need to sign at least one striker this month. I’ve picked out 10 potential targets.

@JonnyPotter87 Ok got you. I agree the rule is over the top, especially when there are other things that need cracking down on more. But for me, you can't officiate differently based on someone already being booked. I don't like the rule but that is not the solution.
English
@EuroExpert_ Where did you get the notebook with pitch on right page?
English
@JonnyPotter87 I am also talking about consistency within games.
Unless I misunderstand, you would be ok with a yellow for imaginary card if he hadn't been booked, but think a different standard should be applied if he is already booked.
Sin bin is an interesting and separate point though
English
@JonnyPotter87 I would argue point one directly contradicts point two
If the same infraction is a yellow the first time, but not a yellow the second, is that not the definition of inconsistency?
English
@MoArsenal86 $40m seems like a quite arbitrary number, and if you factor in how long each manager has been there that is more $40m+ signings per year for Arteta than Klopp, and very little difference to Pep.
English
Sick of this Arteta spending narrative. He had to build an ENTIRE SQUAD. They’ll never tell you the difference between Pep, Klopp and Arteta in terms of *significant* investments (40m or more).
Here are the players Pep, Klopp and Arteta have purchased for 40m euros or more:
English
@nonewthing But they didn't have a finishing problem. You truly are on one tonight.

@patrice421 It was the 10th youngest starting XI in Prem history too.
English
Have never loved Chelsea but this team has some very intriguing players who can knock ball . They may be on the verge of something ? Gusto , caicedo , Colwill , Enzo , Nkuku , Gallagher are all young and can knock ball
English
@themoderndaygk Would he not have had more chance to make this save if he gets a step to his left in before pushing? Or is slo-mo deceiving me here and there was no time?
The set (pre-split) looks very wide to me and possibly inhibits his ability to do so? Thoughts? Love learning from yall.
English
Hope this video makes it a lot clearer 👁️ 🧤
The Modern-Day GK@themoderndaygk
Schwarzer is talking about the split step. But it’s so misunderstood. Even by GKs themselves 😅 Right foot sliding out DOESN’T shift weight to his right but is transferring his weight to dive left. Outside leg ALWAYS pushes first to transfer to ball side leg.
English
@BTFR17 Why waste a man on the near post if they are just going to have a nap? That ball is going in like a yard from the post and he's just watching, even after the save
English
That's great refereeing from Ben Hoskins. Patient, and going to talk to the assistant referee to make a final decision.
I think they got that call right as well.

GOAL-LINE CLEARANCE 🧤 @YorkUtdFC goalkeeper Niko Giantsopoulos makes a save right off the line, which was contested by @PacificFCCPL – but the referees wave it off and awards a goal kick 👀 🔴 WATCH #CanPL on OneSoccer

@secondtierpod My lasting memory of him is standing in the North Stand at Portman Road when I was 12 and thinking "Matty Fryatt, Howard eat it" was the funniest thing I'd ever heard.

@thebenesb This thread is the way it should be. Short, simple language, clear examples. No effort to be wordy and over-intellectualize. Fantastic 👏👏
English
@PaddyODurnan @FromAwaysHFX Buddy what are you even on about From Aways isn't an SG it literally is just one person.
"Stop running your personal account like a personal account" 😂😂😂

Off you fuck back to Ottawa. And take that slimy, time-wasting, Simeone wank-fest brand of football with you. The audacity to play that shite at the Grounds. Jesus wept.

⚓️ NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT??? The boys go right back down the field after a goal against for a crucial winner 🤩 #TogetherFromAways #COYW

Here you go - see you in 5 years 🗿

@MosesDuckrell @ReubenPinder Trying to improve your public image is absolutely wrong if it isn't accompanied by an effort to change the substance behind the image itself. That's just empty PR.
And yes, every major Western state is guilty of this too. But there are levels.
English
@ReubenPinder There is no nation that is free of guilt when it comes to immorality and exploitation. However, some are more advanced in their measures in trying to rectify that than others. Saudi still fall short on so many levels but I don’t think trying to improve their public image is wrong
English
I won’t lie to you my brother, Europeans are the LAST people I want to hear that from. The West is still doing that till this day so definitely not in the position take the moral high ground. Especially when they still fact receive COUNTLESS benefits from… the Middle East
Reubs@ReubenPinder
@MosesDuckrell To launder their global image and divert attention from their horrific regime. Also known as sportswashing.
English
@KierDoyle @AFHStewart The use of "almost exclusively" in that tweet can't just be a poor choice of words - it is the premise the whole idea of the tweet is built around.
If it is a poor choice of words, then it just means your point is a poor point.
You move a lot of goalposts.
English
@AFHStewart Almost exclusively probably a poor choice of words - but it’s the same deal as Meslier. If a keeper is conceding 15-20 goals more than their post shot xG and the team chooses not to replace them, they are a huge contributing factor to that.
English
@KierDoyle @JackMcInroy You can't use "rough rules of thumb" when passing off grand assertions as being backed by data. Those are just opinions.
English
@JackMcInroy As I said above, rough rule of thumb.
Southampton being 11 points better instead of 17, still likely surviving relegation!
