🇳🇴 Norway coach Ståle Solbakken has spoken out on Somalia referee Omar Artan being denied entry to the USA for the World Cup:

“He is the best African referee, we heard. We can all agree that what happened was unnecessary. A lot of things could have been handled differently for him to be there, but some people are hypocrites.”

A strong statement highlighting growing concerns around off-field decisions affecting the tournament.

🚨 Thomas partey blast Donald trump after not being denied access to USA

"Honestly speaking, USA are really ruining football, at first it was the refree that was denied access to officiate a game, now it's me, I'm sad I can't represent my country Ghana in the world cup".

This is not how football use to be, the US are really ruining the beautiful game for we Africans, it's a thing of shame, I hope nothing of this nature should be hosted in USA again

🚨🎙️Didier Drogba: "African Teams Cannot Keep Paying The Price"

With what I'm hearing, I don't think this is heading in the right direction.

First, Ghana could be without Thomas Partey for an important match because of issues unrelated to the competition. That's a huge setback, not just for the team but for the entire country.

Now we're hearing reports of Senegalese fans facing visa difficulties. How is that fair? Imagine playing one of the biggest matches of your life without the support of your fans in the stadium.

Football is about competition, atmosphere and national pride. Supporters are part of that experience.

I think something has to be done and adjusted immediately because, from where I'm standing, it feels like African teams and African supporters are the ones being affected the most.

O'BRIEN: There've been no US peace efforts in Ukraine. Since Trump became president, he tried to get Putin best possible deal on Ukraine, tried to force Ukrainians give up their territory and people. That’s not peace. United States doesn’t want peace, it wants success for Putin.

Ukrainan iskut aiheuttivat bensiinipulan Venäjän Karjalaan ja kohta koko imperiumin alueelle

Lopun alkua. Venäjä romahtaa aina säännöllisin väliajoin. Nykyään useammin ja nopeammin.

"Germany supports Kyiv in its efforts to achieve peace. We did so yesterday, we do so today, and we will continue to do so tomorrow—for as long as necessary.

To counter Russia's clear willingness to escalate, Germany is strengthening NATO's eastern flank while also supporting efforts to reach a negotiated solution.

A lasting peace can only be achieved through negotiations involving Ukraine, Russia, the United States, and Europe—there is no other way.

Ukraine is defending its freedom, as well as the freedom and security of all of Europe."

Putin on what he would say to Zelensky if they were to sign a peace deal:

"Thank God it's all over..

That's what one would say..."

A person who has been terrorizing a foreign country for 4 years ...? can end that war at any time, immediately, with two words..! 🧐

With just 12 months left on his current contract,Arsenal is set to reward Mikel Arteta with a massive bumper contract that effectively DOUBLES his wages to around £20M per year—a staggering £384,000 a week!

🔹 60.03% win percentage
🔹️ Won the Premier League, an FA Cup, and 2 Community Shield.
🔹 Transformed the club completely.

Eduskuntapuolueen puheenjohtaja on realitysarjan kuvauksissa eikä edes omille edustajille ole asiasta kerrottu. Eduskuntatyö näytää olevan demareille ja vihreille täysin vapaaehtoistyö kovalla palkalla. Näitä jengi sitten äänestää.

Bradley Barcola Situation

• Moussa Sissoko has been trying to renew Bradley Barcola’s contract for the best part of 9-12 months. Talks have been difficult, and it reached a point where both parties agreed to put negotiations on hold so that Barcola and PSG could focus on important fixtures in April and May.

• Soon after the UEFA Champions League final, talks resumed and remain ongoing. The player reportedly told people close to him that he was disappointed not to start a number of important fixtures.

• PSG’s position is clear: renew or we will sell, as his contract expires in June 2028. Personally, I think that is a significant stance for the club to take.

• Barcola’s agent also represents Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué and maintains a good relationship with PSG. The club is also in serious talks regarding Yan Diomande and Maghnes Akliouche, which could further influence the situation surrounding Barcola.

Both Arsenal and Liverpool are interested, but I want to explain Arsenal’s side of the story.

• Andrea Berta made serious enquiries into Barcola’s situation last summer. At the time, Arsenal were informed that the player would stay for at least one more year. Since then, Berta has remained in constant contact with Sissoko and has made it clear that Barcola is of serious interest to Arsenal. He has also asked to be notified if PSG become open to a sale. Should Arsenal make an official approach towards PSG, there will be a further update.

• Arsenal also hold an interest in Morgan Rogers and one other player(sensitive info currently). More on that in due course.

• As always, Andrea Berta is willing to agree personal terms with multiple targets and make a move when the timing suits Arsenal.

Before I sign off, there is something worth noting. Berta is very happy for misinformation to circulate publicly. Berta & Co are busy behind the scenes, and many details remain unknown as Arsenal move silently.

Allow me to provide a free exclusive as an example of that which is unknown. Arsenal made standard checks on Nico Paz. Nico was reportedly left confused following a recent call with Mourinho, although another conversation may be scheduled. Arsenal have also made serious checks on Christos Tzolis, the Greek winger.

My point is that a great deal is happening behind the curtain. Embrace the silence and, as always, choose your sources of information carefully.

Mitä ihmeen yliolentoja nämä k-edustajat kuvittelevat olevansa? Miltä työpaikalta voi olla VAIN ilmoituksella pois viikkoja? Ulos tällaiset edustajat! Eivät kuulu eduskuntaan.

Älkää tulko sanomaan, että ainakaan sitä tai tätä Putin ei tule tekemään. Äijä on aivan kujalla ja suuruusharhoissaan ja tälle ei ihmisten teurastaminen merkitse mitään edes siinä tapauksessa, että päättää hyökätä NATO-maan kimppuun. Ei Putin välitä.

Vihreät näyttävät työmoraalin esimerkkiä puheenjohtajansa johdolla:

➡️Lähdenpä tästä tosi-tv-kuvauksiin ja ilmoitan työnantajalle olevani "saikulla".

Ihan inasen vesittää myös puolueen kirkumista kriisistä siellä ja täällä, kun puolueen keulakuva kuitenkin laittaa oman telkkariesiintymisensä eduskuntatyön edelle...

Eläkeyhtiöiden palkat nousevat. Sinä maksat, halusit tai et. Et pysty kilpailuttamaan etkä irtautumaan järjestelmästä.

Et ole päässyt vaikuttamaan jopa viisinkertaisiksi paisuneisiin eläkemaksuihin. Asia on päätetty puolestasi.

Kallis systeemi on yksi syy, miksi talous ei kasva

🇩🇪🇺🇦 MERZ CALLS OUT THE AfD’S MOSCOW PROBLEM

"Ukraine has been defending its freedom for more than 4 years." - Friedrich Merz 🇩🇪

AfD members laughed.

"That’s a telling sign, ladies and gentlemen. They laugh about it, they laugh about the fate of millions of people in Ukraine and they travel to Moscow for their champagne receptions." - Friedrich Merz 🇩🇪

That moment says more than any speech could. When Ukraine’s suffering becomes a joke to them, and Moscow remains a place for political comfort, the mask is not slipping. It is gone.

Tiedän miten kaupallinen media toimii, mutta oli silti eilen todella nihkeä kokemus katsella #mmfutis avausta MTV:ltä. Jatkuvat mainoskatkot katkaisevat tunnelman niin tehokkaasti, ettei ollut mitään vaikeutta jättää peliä kesken toisen maalin jälkeen.
