They will attack us early on and it's important to survive that early wave. We also probably need to win but let's not panic. Let's them implode and destroy them on counters. even a draw is enough if villa dont beat united lets see but sometimes its worst play with pressure than play without pressure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,810 Posted May 20, 2025 Share Posted May 20, 2025 The wait to break the Premier League's goal involvement record goes on for Mohamed Salah. But on his 400th Liverpool appearance, he really should have been celebrating equalling the tally. Quite how the Egyptian side-footed Cody Gakpo's low cross wide of an empty net from just yards out in Monday's defeat at Brighton, no-one really knows. His own wry smile suggested his own disbelief. Two months ago, he looked set to destroy Premier League records and produce the greatest attacking individual season in the competition's history. Salah's double against Southampton on 8 March took him to 27 goals and 17 assists in 29 matches, just three goal involvements short of the Premier League record of 47, held jointly by Alan Shearer and Andrew Cole. He also looked certain to beat the record of 20 Premier League assists in a season, jointly held by Arsenal's Thierry Henry and Manchester City's Kevin de Bruyne. Since then, has recorded just one goal and one assist in eight matches, leaving him still one short of the goal involvement record and two short of the assist record.

Vesper 31,180 Posted May 20, 2025 Share Posted May 20, 2025 Scouting Martín Zubimendi A massive profile on Arsenal's likely midfield signing: his fit, function, defensive game, physical profile, press resistance, passing range, untapped skills, and potential to transform Arsenal https://billycarpenter.substack.com/p/scouting-martin-zubimendi “No, there’s nothin’ you can send me, my own true love There’s nothin’ I wish to be ownin’ Just carry yourself back to me unspoiled From across that lonesome ocean.” — Bob Dylan In Thief (1981), James Caan’s character, Frank, is seen breaking into high-end vaults during a spate of nighttime heists. These scenes are not edited for pace or drama, and there’s little dialogue. Everything looks disarmingly practical. Michael Mann lets it play out slowly, clinically, as we hear the grind of the machinery and the hums of the power drills. Our man Frank isn’t improvising. And Caan isn’t using movie props, but actual tools: a magnetic drill press, an industrial torch, and a custom-built thermal lance. The camera lingers as he locks the press into place, adjusts the angle, and begins boring into the safe’s reinforced steel. Sparks fly, and there are no dramatic cutaways or bouts with cheap tension. Just a man doing his job. Screenwriters have a phrase for this kind of scene: “competence porn.” It’s meant to describe the appeal of watching people who are good at what they do, especially when it’s complicated, and especially when they do it with precision and calm. It’s part of why we’re willing to watch Matt Damon read manuals, rig parts together, and shovel shit in The Martian. It’s part of why Hidden Figures and Arrival resonate, or why we watch Sherlock Holmes solve problems we don’t fully understand. The satisfaction is from the stakes, sure, but also … we like watching capable hands. We like watching systems being worked, problems being solved, little mechanics of confusing jobs being revealed by people who make them look easy. It’s also why people like watching Martín Zubimendi. snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
