  1. I don't hate this move because he clearly wasn't going to play for us this season, but definitely wish it was to an English side.
  2. I don't disagree. I just don't see any fullback being worse. I don't at all think it would be fair to Kenny or help his maturation, though.
  3. I don't think either of you are entirely wrong about the paranoia around p.c. culture, but I also am not convinced you watched the awards. I think context is extremely helpful with this particular example. The entire ceremony played out like a massive celebration of women with the extremely notable exception of who actually received almost all of the most important awards, effectively undercutting the entire effort to empower women. Even if it were true that, as some white male executive said during the ceremony, "women need to step up" in the music industry to beat out men for these awards (which it's not), the general sense of disempowerment that I would feel watching men receive every major award while only lip service was given to my own ability would be pretty fucking strong.
  4. That's kind of silly and dismissive, especially in a category like "Best Pop Solo Performance" (what the hell does that mean anyway), where pop is dominated by women and four women were nominated along with the one man that won. Also, Bruno Mars? Really? That doesn't even dive into the systemic issues behind what you wrote, though Steve touches on them above, but you can continue believing women have equal opportunities if you like.
  5. He's had 3 substitute appearances under fat Sam in his two months in charge (excluding the Europa League game where Sam wasn't even present). That seems closer to not at all.
  6. Garbutt is in the team. One can hope. Or, failing that, fat Sam can make another bad decision and start Coleman, pushing Kenny to the left, which is still a better option than #neverCuco.
  7. Stumbled across this guy a couple months ago... only 18 years old which is kind of absurd and only 17 when he wrote this album:
  8. INFP (- A / - T) / Mediator Type https://www.16personalities.com/infp-personality Says, “Mediator personalities are true idealists, always looking for the hint of good in even the worst of people and events, searching for ways to make things better. While they may be perceived as calm, reserved, or even shy, Mediators have an inner flame and passion that can truly shine. Comprising just 4% of the population, the risk of feeling misunderstood is unfortunately high for the Mediator personality type – but when they find like-minded people to spend their time with, the harmony they feel will be a fountain of joy and inspiration.” Funny because I see myself as quite cynical, and I do love a debate, pissing loads of my friends/acquaintances off. I think that part of me has cooled, and I do think a later bit is quite accurate.
  9. One of the few positive moments of this year’s Grammy’s, minus the opening performance. A little absurd the focus on women and the lack of recognition/awards given to female artists.
  10. To be fair, I think Roberto had some faith in him, and I don’t think any of those managers are particularly confidence-inspiring, either on the part of myself, or in the players who play for them.
  11. Article says it’s because of the opponent. Had the opponent been another youth side, it would have been OK. Does seem arbitrary and idiotic.
  12. Not if he insists on playing Sigurdsson out wide, despite publicly shaming him for his lack of speed. At this rate, I wouldn’t be suprised to see Cuco out there on the left, especially after comments like these (which Romey posted in the Longest Thread): https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/sam-allardyce-ademola-lookman-theo-14213263
  13. It is a shame that they lost their QB Carson Wentz because I think they’d have a much better shot at winning. Foles is an OK game manager, but Wentz can run and has a cannon for an arm.
  14. 7. Leon Osman 8. Antolin Alcaraz
  15. I want Garbutt, but I’d rather Kenny than Cuco.
  16. “Of course, we’ve also got Dom and Ademola but they’re at the younger end and it’s hard for those lads to play every week at this level until they gain enough experience.” How does that make sense? “I’m not going to play them until they gain more experience at this level.” Cool, bro.
  17. A little ridiculous that it took that. Still not even sure it’s the best situation, though, if Sam is going to insist on starting Bolasie in front of him every match.
  18. https://www.si.com/soccer/2018/01/26/fanview-why-playing-everton-will-benefit-ademola-lookman-more-loan-move-away
  19. 1. Sadly, the Patriots. 5. Doubleday 8. Joe Montana
  20. PLEASE let this be the end of Cuco, no matter what the situation. Unsworth does seem to rate him, for what it’s worth.
  21. I jump for joy whenever they lose, especially to a relegation-threatened team. Again, I’ll change my tune if we’re 5 games from the end of the season and we’re in danger, but only then.
  22. I won’t love it if they keep winning, but for now, it’s the small victories. There’s a lot of season left. No time to start rooting for Liverpool.
  23. Not what we need but I will never hope for a Liverpool win unless it guarantees our safety.
