@Jerseyaffairs @55merlinoa @xGPhilosophy Clearly hasn't been a problem for Man City as he's been the best keeper in the league.

@garethn @55merlinoa @xGPhilosophy His ball claiming ability in set piece situation is very poor for a goalkeeper of his height and caliber. He's an excellent shot stopper by the way. The way he panicks when crosses comes in and his poor ball playing ability is the reason why PSG got rid of him.

🧤 Worst shot-stoppers last season: 🥇 B. Leno: -6.2 goals prevented 🥈 G. Vicario: -5.5 goals prevented 🥉 N. Pope: -3.4 goals prevented

@Jerseyaffairs @55merlinoa @xGPhilosophy He saved his only penalty this season, conceded one direct free kick, a couple from free-kick crosses and a few from corners. I don't think many have done better than that, although it's a team effort for most of these things. His league-leading shot-stopping includes all this.

@garethn @55merlinoa @xGPhilosophy Best goalkeeper that couldn't hold his own in set piece situations. He's always a good goalkeeper until its time to prevent a goal from set pieces.

@55merlinoa @xGPhilosophy He was the best keeper in the Premier League this season tbf

@xGPhilosophy Where's that Fraud fróm Manchester Dogshitnnaruma

@maxmel171 @xGPhilosophy You can't eye test shot-stopping over hundreds of shots across a season.

@xGPhilosophy Interesting because the eye test suggests Leno had a decent season with 1 or 2 errors. Don't really know how that's happened.

@AeroRestore @LeftieStats @Survation A rather subjective source, and depends who is asking and who is being asked. I suspect they'll go sub-5% in reality.

@garethn @LeftieStats @Survation Source: Doorstep responses. Cope.

@AeroRestore @LeftieStats @Survation Source: trust me bro

@LeftieStats @Survation Restore is higher. Much higher...

@SaffronisedTory @PolitlcsUK It wouldn't necessarily be any closer after transfers

@PolitlcsUK Ref + Res + Tories = 49% Lab + Grn + LD =52% But we vote FPTP so this is purely academic.

@davidjohnc @RaggedTP @JoanDevizes Corbyn never had control of the levers of the party, unfortunately

@RaggedTP @JoanDevizes Expelled under Corbyn btw

In April 2016, Ken Livingstone was ambushed by the odious John Mann and a camera crew following factual comments Ken made that Hitler supported Zionism. Ken was subsequently expelled from Labour Party while Mann left the party to become a Tory advisor.

@elonmusk @visegrad24 Floyd died due to fatal police restraint/neck compression.

@visegrad24 Same was true of George Floyd. He died of a drug overdose, but Derek Chauvin, the police officer in that case, was still sent to prison for murder.

🇬🇧 Hampshire police claim that Henry Nowak would have died anyway, regardless of whether he was handcuffed or not. The Hampshire police have issued an official defense for the actions taken by the officers who handcuffed 18-year-old Henry Nowak as he was pleading for help. The medical examiner has testified that Vickrum Digwa’s 21 cm blade had caused a catastrophic wound directly to Henry's heart. Because the blade penetrated so deeply, the blood was pooling inside his chest cavity rather than soaking his clothes immediately. According to the pathologist, the trauma to his heart was unsurvivable from the moment it occurred, arguing that it didn't matter who was handcuffed at the scene first. The Deputy Chief Constable has publicly stated that "the pathologist who spoke in court was clear: there was nothing officers could have done that day to save Henry. His wound was deep and internal, the bleeding extensive but internal." Henry's father, Mark Nowak, stressed that while the wound was fatal, the police's mishandling denied his son the right to die with dignity, care, or peace. Essentially, the British police shifted their narrative on Henry Nowak from "we did nothing wrong" to "he would have died anyway, so the delay doesn't matter."

@ZjonIsHealing @HojaySax Maybe he was trying to bounce the ball to him off the wall

@garethn @HojaySax It’s clear he was just about to kick the ball to him like

Imagine if it was an Arsenal player that did this The media bias on Arsenal is really crazy

@From_The_Wing @NTT20Pod Of course, all these penalties were taken by first choice penalty takers (at least amongst the players on the pitch)

Obviously unfortunate for Arsenal at the weekend, but I couldn't help but think of the @NTT20Pod stat where only 1 penalty in the EFL completely missed the goal this season. Decided to expand to Europe. Just 118 penalties from 4245 taken completely missed the goal!

@sarf_darn @Fr12ee44Spewxh @JackHadders The country isn't angry

@Fr12ee44Spewxh @JackHadders One family can’t control an entire country’s anger

Angry protesters confronted the police in Southampton, demanding they “bend the knee and pay their respects to Henry” Nowak. “What are you gonna do? Put me in cuffs and kill me?” said one after the police told them it was in the hands of the IOPC

@CrankyGuardian @Voyager03 @StephenMossGdn @colinrtalbot nonsense

@Voyager03 @StephenMossGdn @colinrtalbot They actually don't let you touch them in the shops until you've bought them. Then they put it in secure packaging etc it's absurd.

For those proposing banning the Sikh kirkpan on the basis of “one rule for all”. Would that also not apply to the Scottish sgian dubh worn in a sock as part of traditional Highland dress? It’s also exempt but for cultural not religious reasons.

@HojaySax It's a mandatory red card if a team official, substitute or subbed player delays the restart of play by the opposing team.

@garethn Sent off for what ?

@GlynneVW @GainsGinger @RMTunion They do

@GainsGinger @RMTunion Why don't they strike during their holidays?

London tube drivers who joined the strike today, you are the problem with today’s society. I would understand if you as a person could not change employment and therefore would need to strike for change. However, this is not the case for most of you. The demographic is mostly young to middle age and can Easily change career if they desire and reduce their working week. Honestly, it’s like we live in la la land. I don’t know why our government has not addressed this matter directly and stated this, surely this is common sense? This job will be among the first to go to AI and you drivers have no one to thank but yourselves. Jokers 🫵🏻🤣

@KatieCurtis That would make it warmer

If you’re wondering about the drop in temperature tonight, I had my new mobile air conditioning unit delivered today 🙄

@Captain_C2 @alisha_hg I rarely go in grocery stores. I can drive, but I sold my car and just walk, cycle or use public transport.

Thats a horribly inefficient waste of time. You probably end up spending close to 5 hours just in grocery stores every week if you do this (nevermind the extra hours spent walking there and back as well), when you add up shopping+waiting in line. I'd rather just do 2-3 weeks worth of shopping at once in <2hours, drive my groceries right to my front door, and then not have to go to a store again for a few weeks There's a reason no one who gets a license ever uses public transit or walks anywhere ever again if they dont have to - its way worse in every way. Society should be more accommodating to cars, not less. Bike lanes for example, should be illegal

It is fascinating to see people get so close to the point, but not getting it. A selling point of living in a walkable city is that you don’t need to have more than like a bag of groceries per trip.
