Cracking end to a curtain drawn on the Merseyside Derby at Goodison, it felt like a battle of old.
Scenes at full-time though, woosh. Every thread I've seen, no matter what media is full of immense bitters though.
How dare the players (and fans) have the audacity to celebrate a game of that historical magnitude!

Ends up draws all round at Goodison. I thought Everton were the better team until our second goal.
Dumb fighting, but I can't help but enjoy a mini pitch invasion over a draw and the red cards all round. It's almost as if it was planned

Meme I saw on facebook or whatever.
Final Merseyside derby at Goodison, against the runaway leaders, and a centre back bangs one in on the 98th minute. If you don't get that, you don't get football.

We're now virtually the same points away from European places as we are from a relegation battle!
Also yes, the fact we're above Spurs and United at this point, I would have taken that at the beginning of the season... Just not thinking they'd be down there

Well we were shafted a well deserved win yesterday, the result was going the same route as Tottenham a few weeks ago.
While a victory wasn't guaranteed with a potential to be given, the opportunity was well and truly stolen from us.
The ref got the decision right with his own eyes but the VAR team mislead the situation. No doubt we'll be getting an apology from it.
Infuriating that there was 3-4 angles one showing it was a dead cert, and that was the angle that wasn't shown. Ridiculous

Maybe if Young hadn't thrown himself to the ground so theatrically they'd have been more sympathetic. If you look at it impartially and take Young's exaggerated dive out of the equation, there was very little actual contact from De Ligt or Maguire, certainly not enough to make him go down like he'd been shot.

Man Utd to build 'iconic' £2bn 100,000-capacity stadium close to Old Trafford
Manchester United announce plans to build the biggest stadium in the UK - an "iconic" new £2bn 100,000-seater ground close to Old Trafford.
www.bbc.co.uk
Looks fantastic. But the mancs are currently £1bn in debt, the stadium (barring cost overruns) will cost £2bn.
I would be very unhappy if a lot of public money was spent on this. But given their debt levels, they'll be pushing hard for it no doubt.

It seems Liverpool are huffing and puffing to the finish line.

I don't think we've played amazingly well for a few months now tbh. And one of my muslim colleagues made the observation that he thinks ramadan really affects Salah and I think he's got a point tbh.
Slot maybe should have gone with a duck-egg team against Southampton, but we weren't great there either. But maybe we'd have had more legs against PSG and then wouldn't have been so mentally affected for this final.

Come The Shots!!
Son is there with his Uncle and cousin. When I dropped them off at the train station everywhere you looked fans were making their way to the trains. They put on extra carriages and a shitload of coaches.
