I've been watching a doco how Liverpool rigged a few games in the early 1900's to keep Man United in the first division.

Then Man United dropped to the second division but quickly rose back to the first division.

This was the start of their rivalry.

This is some amazing historic stuff that went on.

Best player of the year is Lionel Messi.

1. Messi
2. Lewandowski
3. Jorginho
4. Benzema
5. Kante

Where is Salah placed?

Edit: sorry just googled it. Salah is placed at 7th.

He deserves to be in top 3, worst case scenario 4th but alright I guess.

Ronaldo to the rescue... again!
Also a total of
801
goals for him. Wow.

The Arsenal game was Carrick's last in charge and sadly he's decided to leave rather than stay on in a supporting role.

Glad you beat them because we ended up winning against Brentford 2-0 and played some real good football to be honest... Conte seems to have got the best out of a few of the players and I'm hoping it continues as we are 2 points behind top 4 with a game in hand! Norwich tomorrow :)

The organisations that are talking about promoting and developing women's football are the ones that are holding it back.

World cup qualifiers are ridiculous in the men's game (does San Marino need to play England *twice* for a combined score of 15-0?), and it makes even less sense in the women's game when there are fewer developed nations and the gaps in funding etc are even greater.

England's 20-0 victory over Latvia does nothing for England and actually damages development in Latvia, how many girls are going to be encouraged to take up a sport after watching the best players in their country be defeated like that.

Meanwhile yesterday's FA Cup final, was the final from the 20/21 season. On the surface it looked like the FA did a good job by using the fixture as a way of both celebrating the anniversary of the competition and acknowledging the 100 year anniversary of the ban on womens football in England. But the reality is that last season's final is taking place this season because the competition was abandoned last year due to the pandemic, whilst the men's competition was supported to continue. The WSL was also terminated early for the same reason, whilst the PL was celebrated.

The referee missed two incredibly obvious penalties in yesterdays game. This is less about the referee's individual failure but rather the overall standard of training and lack of support, - for example VAR was not made available, despite the game being in a perfectly well equipped national stadium.

The game was good overall, although I was disappointed by Arsenal's poor start.
