I'm sure there'll be plenty of people on both 'sides' jumping to conclusions before they've read all 2,000 pages...

Downing Street press conference at 3pm

'Ebola' is a geographical reference, ergo it could be argued that Wes is being consistent by using a geographical reference to describe Covid-19...?

So then... if Ralph gets poached by Man Utd or Arsenal....

Indeed. I'm just genuinely intrigued if they have a sense of self-awareness that it's their holier-than-thou approach to debate that leads to the opposite of what they want happening? Or are they genuinely unaware? Given they're cleverer than those that voted to leave, it seems a tad bizarre to continue with the shooting-oneself-in-the-foot approach to debate, does it not?

Do people that make this kind of comment realise that it's this attitude to towards the 'thickos' that probably tilted the 2016 vote in the favour of 'Leave'? Or are they blissfully unaware? Genuine question from a Brexit agnosticist...

Ralph also says (at 33m 38 secs): "I haven't decided now what I do or who plays in the moment" when talking about Stephens and Salisu as his two Vestergaard replacement options.

Not everyone. Our family have tapped into our collective intellect and decided not to meet up on Christmas day. I doubt we're the only clever family in the land...

https://www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/18962367.tweaking-diet-lockdown-gave-oriol-romeu-lot-food-thought/ Anyone else surprised that the players aren't on a diet / exercise regime dictated by the club rather than having to work out for themselves what's best...? Or am I reading too much into this?

IMO....KWP > Bertrand (in the context of the system Ralph plays), ergo, I wonder if the club are weighing up whether they can source a left-footed version of KWP for the same sort of cash we could get by selling Bertrand. Or... we're trying to convince Bertrand to sign a contract that reflects he's likely to become a back-up player if/when we find another KWP. Or... None of the above... #whatdoiknow?

This chap is destined for big things in football journalism I reckon...

I've heard that Maehle might be off to Atalanta but don't quote me on it yet. Just validating my source. BRB

Nice one Burnley. Next... Come on the Draw! #CHEWHA

Vision

I'm actually happier that we're playing Fulham now that they've picked up a bit. It always feels that we have a poor track record against teams that are in the midst of a bad run... (MLG notes: yes, I know... the stats probably show that we don't fair more worse against teams looking to break a bad run compared to any other team, so my post is indeed pretty pointless. It's a fair cop)
