People who don’t have anxiety don’t understand how it can mess you up. I totally get it. Is the reception in a hotel? If so, get a room so you can step away and unwind somewhere private if you feel it become overwhelming. I’ve found having an escape plan often means I don’t end up needing it.

Srsly, I seen people go from “why hasn’t it happened yet” this morning to panicking “OMG it’s not going to happen” then back again today. It’s a giant deal, w. many moving parts: that takes time. I worry for those fans’ blood pressures. Relax lads. #YNWA

Seems to be a great lad. Although he is a Dutch national, because he was at Man City academy for nine years, he counts as home-grown in the squad. Very useful for #LFC

Peacock (US) is UKP 6 per month for *most* games, but they don’t show big games. Those are not available streaming unless you have cable or pay for fubo. (Or get a free trial month of fubo. *cough*). Fortunately I watch most games at the pub. Unfortunately, that makes the 4.30am games really brutal

(Not a lawyer but…) from my understanding attempted murder is harder to prove legally than GBH with intent, but both carry a maximum sentence of life. Better to get the conviction and argue for the higher sentence than risk an acquittal.

The top charge is GBH *with* intent, which usually carries a 3-16 year sentence but can go as high as a life sentence. Given the multiple victims, if convicted, you’d have to hope it’d be on the high end of the guidelines.

For those worried about no news about Kerkez, Frimpong or Wertz, just remember how #LFC managed the Fabinho transfer. No hints beforehand, just ‘hey guys, here’s your new DM,’ and the pics of him signing. It’s how they prefer to work. Deep breaths…

My point is that just because Saudi clubs wave the cash it doesn’t mean Diaz or any other player will say yes. After that 1st wave of signings a few years ago, a lot of players can see the downsides to the Saudi league. No PL. No UCL. No Anfield. No giant parade. Money isn’t everything to everyone

Yes, I have seen every game LFC have played (some more than once) thanks for asking. I agree we want to keep Diaz. He has been an important player - usually good and often fantastic.

We sang the Arne Bounce song so much Sunday it got stuck in my head. Today, finally, it’s gone! …To be replaced by ‘Liverbird on my Chest’ as today’s earworm. I guess it could be worse… #YNWA #LFC

Saudi clubs have been interested in other #LFC players, not least Salah. It doesn’t mean it’ll be reciprocated.

This is how LFC operates: quietly, efficiently, as under-the-radar as they can manage. There’ll be a lot to discuss with Bayer and Wirtz, and the window isn’t even open yet. I don’t think a lack of “news” is anything to worry about yet.

Is the opposite of doomscrolling ‘joyscrolling’? because I’ve been gorging on #lfc content like a fiend. #ynwa

The sun is out. Lucky Baldwin’s is packed and in full voice. Let’s do this, Reds. #ynwa #lfc

Oh I laughed out loud at that. And I’d lay bets that within a few years he was claiming “I was behind Klopp from the very beginning” #LFC

I meant to watch one and just binged it all. It was lovely hearing Kloppo laugh again.

Michael Oliver had another mare. I’d say it was shocking but it’s entirely predictable

It was in the Weekend Sport, a tabloid that makes the National Enquirer seem like the height of journalistic integrity. I’m going to assume it’s nonsense unless a far better source reports otherwise.

It was in the Sport tabloid. Totally unreliable.

Fulham have a pretty good away record so I doubt it’ll be comfortable. I want to see lfc better first half, not just second but any win will do and is feasible #lfc

I think an entire generation of British kids were traumatized by that. A nice film about bunnies, what could possibly go wrong?

Luxury! 4.30am at the pub. The things we do, eh…

In the pub, I think we whooped and cheered that tackle almost as much as a goal. Bradley is turning into quite some player. #LFC
