How does Yoshida not make the squad? Injury?

Any streams accessible from a golf course? Asking for a friend

"Team walk"... What's that all about?

Draw was the worst result for us. Knocked us back down to 13th

Up to 12th. 3 points off top with a game in hand. Solid start.

Isn't the main reason players are late back after world cups due to them being 'entitled' to a 2 week holiday at end of the season. As such, given the Qatar world cup is mid-season, there's no reason why players shouldn't be back at their clubs as soon as their world cup campaign has finished, is there?

Looking good...

Was there any add-ons for goals scored in the contract when we sold him?

2-0 FT Hesketh our stand out player (perhaps unsurprisingly). Scrappy first goal and good finish from Barnes to secure the victory in the closing seconds.

...

Anyone else wince slightly when Ings slid down on two knees at 7m 34s?

More priase from Klopp in his pre-match press conference this morning (FWIW).... https://twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1YqKDQXamMAGV "What a fantastic person. We miss him already. It's not as if there was anybody in the building opening the door for him, it was the other way around. We were still hoping to avoid the transfer. He's fully fit and in a good shape, so that's nice for him and Southampton"

Little known fact: In 1997, the Chuckle Brothers won the 'World's Biggest Sheep' contest with their two metre ewe.

At least the forum has an active moderator now. Been at least two years since we had one of those. Mind you, we've not really needed one given there's been no WUMs on here in living memory...

I've just got in and started watching the last 5 minutes and we look half decent. I'm assuming one can't say the same about the preceding 70 mins?!

Indeed, and if rumours were circling that we were about to sign a Euros winner and world cup player from Portugal, they'd be plenty of salivating on here too, regardless of recent club form

Chomp

We need to retain players like Targett. Simple as that.
