Disgusting behaviour by the Argentinians at the end, especially Paredes.
Just a bunch of nasty violent thugs, and a disgrace to football. Never been so happy to see a team lose.
You’re all a bunch of fucking bums hating on my brother’s name, especially fighters.
Without Conor McGregor, everyone in MMA would still be making 10K fighting on Spike TV. He changed the game forever.
Watching him fight through things people don’t come back from inspires me to keep facing my own demons. He didn’t have to go for it, but he still did for the love of the game. That’s what separates him. A real motherfucking G.
Nobody knows the real man. He taught me the game, taught me about life, and so much more than I could ever put into words. He taught me how to believe in myself, think bigger, trust my instincts, keep going when the whole world doubts you, and never settle. I’ll always be grateful for everything he’s taught me and everything he continues to teach me. My brother for life. 🤞
If you hate on that, you’ll never achieve greatness.
Always up. The legend. The best ever to do it. McGregor forever.
Manchester United didn’t go from Erik ten Hag straight to Michael Carrick.
We didn’t go from a team that struggled to protect a lead under Ten Hag to a defensively compact side just because Carrick has spent three weeks at the club.
We didn’t go from a squad full of egos, indiscipline, and clubbing addictions to one built on athleticism, focus, unity, and hard work simply because Carrick arrived three weeks ago.
We didn’t go from a team that was consistently outplayed and dominated in possession under Ten Hag to one that now controls games and dominates the ball just because Carrick has been around for a few weeks.
We didn’t go from a team with serious goal-scoring problems under Ten Hag to one scoring for fun just because Carrick took over.
We didn’t suddenly become a threat from set pieces just because Carrick has spent three weeks at Manchester United.
A certain Portuguese coach ensured that ego, indiscipline, and toxicity were completely eradicated from the dressing room.
He made sure deadwood and entitled players were cut loose.
He made sure we became a possession-based team again that could match the athleticism and intensity of any opponent.
He made sure we fought for every ball, scored goals, and converted set pieces.
He made sure the players were united, the dressing room was healthy, and most importantly, that Manchester United became a joy to watch again after years of depressing football.
His name is Rúben Amorim!
Hate him all you want, but the truth remains: he is the single most important reason we are where we are as a club right now.
Diego Simeone’s stint at Atletico will surely go down as one of the great single stints as manager of a club in modern football. Many similarities with Wenger at Arsenal.
Over 14 full seasons, Atlético finished outside the top four just once, recorded eight third-place finishes, twice finished runners-up, and won La Liga twice. Ushered the club into a new modern era and stadium.
Broke the Barça/Real monopoly during the Messi & Ronaldo era, produced some of the finest sides in Europe, 60% win rate in just short of 800 games, 5 major trophies. From a club mid-table when he took over to a European heavyweight.
Fair play to Rio Ferdinand for calling out pundits like Carragher, Gary Neville during Amorim's time at Man Utd.
"They had Amorim straight away getting rinsed under pressure. I'd like to see the same energy for Arne Slot. Worse start since Brendan Rogers"

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you Arsenal football club, aka We Tried FC
Today, I’m officially announcing my retirement from the UFC. This decision comes after a lot of reflection, and I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the journey I’ve experienced over the years.
From the first time I stepped into the Octagon, my goal was to push the boundaries of what was possible in this sport. Becoming the youngest UFC champion in history, defending my title against some of the best fighters in the world, and sharing unforgettable moments with fans across the globe—these are memories I’ll cherish forever. I’ve faced incredible highs and some tough lows, but every challenge has taught me something valuable and made me stronger, both as a fighter and as a person.
I want to thank the UFC, Dana, Hunter, Lorenzo, God, my family, coaches, teammates, and all the fans who have stood by me through every chapter. Your unwavering support and belief in me have been my foundation. To my fellow fighters, thank you for bringing out the best in me and for the respect we’ve shared inside and outside the cage.
As I close this chapter of my life, I look forward to new opportunities and challenges ahead. MMA will always be a part of who I am, and I’m excited to see how I can continue to contribute to the sport and inspire others in new ways. Thank you all for being part of this incredible journey with me. The best is yet to come.
JUST IN: Singapore women’s national team have withdrawn from ASEAN Women’s championship. Timor-Leste replace the Lionesses.
What a brilliant way to find out ; while watching the draw and reading an email from AFF
They had earned a berth last December:

Finals reached by the "Big Six" clubs since Mikel Arteta became Arsenal manager:
Chelsea –7
Manchester City –6
Liverpool –5
Manchester United –5
Tottenham –2
Arsenal – 1
During this period, the other 5 clubs have made it to a European final except Arsenal.
What’s our excuse?
Btw, Klopp also lost the Europe league final in his first year at Liverpool.
They bought Mane, Wijnaldum and Matip and sold 6-7 players in his 1st summer.
They didn't do the sacking nonsense.
Give a manager proper time.
