On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers.

But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.

Just checked - we’re 4th on total xGA, 11th on goals conceded. β€œMore than a little bad luck”, as Slot said

Not even starting to think about how refs have to be to let that happen.

If anything we have too many homegrown players and ones who can run, so this makes sense.

Huge caveats around pre-season, but they knew the impact of that come September and appear to have decided January just isn’t for them. What do they expect.

Leaving Slot with a bare bones squad that can’t play 90 multiple times a week is becoming cruel. He takes all the flack while he can’t even pick a functioning back 4.

you do not, under any circumstances, have to say a certain marseille player has "got that swagger about him" on a live tv broadcast.

Nice one! The part about this being the performance that turned people is something I can’t shake. Why have patience when we looked totally broken and then lose it all when it’s turning around?

I don’t know how similar people have gone from backing him and talking about grief while we were losing 9 in 12 to calling us meek and cowardly by going 12 unbeaten and pretty much any stat you pick having us back to being an elite team. Where are these words and opinions being formed?

And today’s performance was more exciting than many of those! Seeing a lot of chat about the football being negative, which might have been true against Sunderland, but I can’t see it now

There are SO many things wrong with this. More than should be possible in that few words.
