See how Phil Foden entered the pitch ahead of Saka there. He put the route on a plate for him.

There's a special place in hell for toy designers who design battery powered toys without an on/off switch. Where the only way to immediately shut them up is by unscrewing the battery compartment and removing the batteries! Madness!

That's a great hit from Paqueta, but surely Pope needs to catch that cross in the build-up, rather than punching it? It looped up in the air and he wasn't under massive pressure.

I know the Rice and Trossard red cards last season were ridiculous, but it vexes me no end that they both quite obviously kicked the ball away during that half. Thankfully, the ref dealt with both incidents sensibly. But neither of them could have complained much if they'd been booked #ARSCRY

Looks like Palace have gone fairly strong tonight. Of the usual starters, it looks like only Richards and Wharton on the bench. Let's hope our extra couple of days to recover pays dividends come Sunday!

British.

Marc Guehi: baller! #ENGWAL

Ha, Alan Shearer said he thinks Rice is better as number 8, but that he is "equally" good as a number 6. This on the same day that Michael Dawson said on Soccer Saturday that "both teams have had a lot of possession." 😁

Goal from a DM, is it? #LIVEVE

To be fair, one was a penalty conceded by a young player who made a slightly rash challenge. The other was a freak goalkeeper error that we're unlikely to see again (hopefully!). I don't think there is a systematic issue with the defence. We'll of course look a damn sight stronger once Leah is back.

I am painting every London tube station this is number 96. Highbury and Islington.

So, if I'm reading this right, every fit first team player has been called up except for Kepa. That's mad. I know we usually have a fair few go away with their countries, but there's normally a small handful left behind at London Colney. I hope Kepa enjoys only Inaki Cana for company!

Evergreen.

I tell you what, if/when West Ham sack Potter, they'll be in for Mourinho, I reckon.

Just seen an angry West Ham fan refer to Graham Potter as a nerd, and it's really made me chuckle. Has Potter done anything to be considered a nerd? Or is it simply that he shares a surname with Harry Potter, who wears glasses? Either way, it's very funny.

Don't let your intrusive thoughts win. Under no circumstances is your dentist offering you a drink. Spit that shit out.

I Know What I Did Last Summer #MildHorror

Their rivals on the force: Detective Bishop and Detective King.

Interested, if there's still space

Not cool, Lewis. Not cool. 😁

I know it's easy to say after a penalty shootout with so many misses, but it seemed like players from both sides were rushing a bit. They could have done with taking a couple of more breathes before their run ups.

Get in!!!!!

In hindsight, shaking out my red blanket after a picnic in Spain was a terrible decision.

So these are your pundamentals.

I'm on record as saying that the opening 20 minutes of Casino Royale is an incredible piece of cinema. And I know that it's a two-decade old film. But could they not have hired a Daniel Craig stunt double with the same haircut as Craig? It's so noticeable and distracting, even in the wide shots.

Andrea Berta has the opportunity to do the funniest thing...

Fresh Prince of Repair Hi all. I hope you’re all doing well. I ran into some technical difficulty with my phone recently. Not particularly interesting, perhaps. But, it was the first time I’ve ever had a seri…

New blog, looking at the complicated (or not!) world of phone repair. Also featuring a Reacher review. Enjoy:
