I love Arteta but i don't think he is the coach to win us trophies. He has done a lot for this club and now its time to get a coach that will take us to that level where we can win trophies.
Sometimes players move and it just doesn't work out. We bought Pepe after his monster season in Ligue 1 and his form fell of a cliff.
Letting Salah go will be one of the biggest mistakes Liverpool make. He is at the peak of his powers. This is the same mistake they made when they let Mane walk out the door.
Apple's AI currently utilizes 7GB of RAM. I predict the iPhone 17 series will feature 12 or 16GB of RAM. However, we have yet to see an AI feature that appeals to the average user or becomes a daily essential. Right now, AI feels more like a gimmick, consuming RAM without delivering meaningful value
I suspect the profiles will be used to train AI to improve conversational skills. So far, AI hasn't fully captured the human touch in its responses.
The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) hits 109.39, up 7% YoY, reflecting its resilience. Rising rates, economic strength, or safe-haven demand may be driving this surge. Impacts: lower commodity prices, pressure on EM currencies, and trade adjustments. The strong dollar trend remains a key market focus.
Nwaneri needs to have a great game today.
Tough to fit this one in with a million ads in 15 minutes.
Only other option is to convert Amad and Garnacho to wingbacks. Bruno also has to accept and play the number 8 role and pull the strings alongside Mainoo. Rashford, Hojlund and Zirkzee as the front 3
Happy New Year everyone.

Russia, together with Putin, is bursting at the seams!!!
This chart, from the McKinsey Institute, is a reminder that the growth and productivity challenges facing Europe extend well beyond public sector policy making.
It also emphasizes the importance of keeping the “Draghi Report” front and center.

You are definitely getting into top 4.
Lovely scenes.
Thank you Ipswich.
We did see a notable shift away from Brent (white) and toward WTI (blue) contracts last week, which I believe was largely due to the reemergence of a WTI prompt timespread premium (i.e., higher roll yield) which enticed some length to switch between the contracts.
DELAYED CoT DATA
Speculators (MM) were net sellers of Brent and WTI contracts to the tune of 9.3 MMbbl last week, driven by 13.6 MMbbl in fresh shorts blunted by 4.3 MMbbl in additional longs.
Net level is quite high vs recent experience, but more normal vs past two years.
With integrations into products like Google Search and the iPhone, generative AI reached new levels of popularity in 2024, sending big tech stocks sky-high.

Have spent part of the day reading detailed accounts of Carter’s presidency. Of course, as many have observed on this platform and others, no head of empire should ever be deified. I am grateful to be duly informed about Carter’s failings and missteps. Let me keep reading.
US Henry Hub natural gas prices rallied nearly 20% this morning, back above $4/MMBtu for the first time since the end of 2022.
Chelsea poached Omari Hutchinson from Arsenal with the promise of first team action. Chelsea failed to deliver on that promise and sold him to Ipswich. Today Hutchinson has scored against Chelsea in could be the most important goal of the season should Ipswich win today.
John Authers:
"Possibly the most important shift in the financial world is that China and Japan are changing places
Chinese govt bond yields have fallen. In Japan, however, it really begins to look like the deflationary psychology has been licked, and Japanese govt bond yields have started to rise."
A Chelsea loss would go a long way to helping Arsenal.
This picture sums up everything that's wrong with Manchester United.

Cutting our holiday short to take to the streets and protest against government-led abductions is the harsh reality the Kenyan government has forced upon us. Since July, some Kenyans have vanished without a trace.
