Letter of the day (in the Times)

Look, I have some sympathy for #NUFC fans and know a few myself but don’t you think not having a DoF and CEO is doing more to derail your summer?🤷‍♂️

Seems like the owners are not doing anything to actually help Howe.

I’m pretty sure I was there in 1980. I’ve still not been to the new Wembley … is it still terrible to get into and out of in a car?

Hope you enjoyed your day … if not the result

There are a lot of idiots enraged by this misleading Times headline.

The article itself - yes, the exact same one - points out that:

A) In any typical year, about 50 independent schools close

B) More independent schools opened than shut, so the overall number went up.

But that's far too nuanced.

I thought #MoSalah was very statesmanlike in his comment. Dignified but well aimed

Yes, his reputation will be permanently tarnished with #NUFC fans.

The rest of football will forget it rapidly … yesterday’s chip paper. That’s the way of the world … it hurts if you’re on the “wrong end” of things. #LFC

Palace were strong in the second half. I suspect we would have seen Rio if they had not equalised or we’d taken one of the chances we had

Yes … he’s quick and strong

A more fit MacAllister would have either started or come on earlier. I get your point but we have to judge Slot when he has everyone fit and available #LFC

Left side is the new right side because Kerkez is a very offensive full back. Good enough defensively (witness the outstanding block late on) but likely to be AWOL if the opposition switch and break quickly.

We’ll have to find the balance. Every team needs one or two to do the really hard work #LFC

That was my immediate thought … Barton’s off social media now isn’t he? 😂😂

OK … it’s pre-season and we’re without Gravenberch and it’s hot and we have new players bedding in and we did a lot of good stuff in the first half.

BUT … these second half drop offs are worrying

#LFC

Need to kill more games off by 60 minutes

Fair play to that young lad … best penalty of the lot.

Hope we don’t have many/any clutch penalties this season because, Cody aside, those were shite #LFC

#Isak licking his lips at the chances he might have and #NUFC owners whacking another £50m on the asking price having watched this game

He was ill last week wasn’t he. Likely “knocked him back” a bit but certainly not at his best today #LFC

That’s not a foul on Gakpo … he’s got to do more there #LFC

Outstanding block from Kerkez there #LFC

Nah … he was “looking for it” 😂

He’s looking good but I want to see how he performs one-on-one and “goal poaching“ in the penalty area.

Encouraging

That’s twice that Curtis and Konate have not been on the same wavelength.

We’re electric on the break but, if everyone is going to fly forward, we have to be precise with the passing. Hesitation from Gakpo there and #Palace are away.

We might be winning a lot of games with 2 or 3 goals conceded this season 😱 #LFC
