Following Newcastle's sixth win in the Champions League this season, Eddie Howe now has the most victories by an English manager in a single season 👏

He's moved ahead of Bobby Robson in 2002-03 (with Newcastle) and Graham Potter in 2022-23 (with Chelsea) - both five.

Our position on Greenland is very clear – it is part of the Kingdom of Denmark and its future is a matter for the Greenlanders and the Danes.

We have also made clear that Arctic Security matters for the whole of NATO and allies should all do more together to address the threat from Russia across different parts of the Arctic.

Applying tariffs on allies for pursuing the collective security of NATO allies is completely wrong. We will of course be pursuing this directly with the US administration.

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

Britain should repurchase America. After all, it was ours once, and it would enhance our North Atlantic security. If you don’t sell it to us, President Trump, we’re going to impose tariffs on the U.S. and any country who supports you in resisting this very good deal. Fair?

Alexander Isak is the first Liverpool player in history to lose each of his first four Premier League starts for the club. 😬❌

[Luke Edwards @LukeEdwardsTele]

Broke the British transfer record twice in one summer. Spent £450m to supposedly improve a squad that won the league last season. A squad he inherited. He’s starting to sound a little desperate. Six defeats in seven games…

[Luke Edwards @LukeEdwardsTele]

People called it an agenda, but perhaps now they can see why I - and others - have said going on strike, forcing his way out of a club that didn’t want to sell him, betraying the people who supported and improved him for three years, is having a lasting, damaging impact on Alexander Isak 🤷‍♂️

[Luke Edwards @LukeEdwardsTele]

🇸🇪 Alexander Isak got what he wanted this summer. Went on strike to force a £130m move to Liverpool. Sweden have not got what they needed from their star striker as a result.

😫 Harsh? Not really. A home defeat to Kosovo tonight, he’s missed crucial games and now no goals in three appearances in World Cup qualifiers. Sweden bottom of their group.

Alexander Isak’s struggles for club and country highlight the dangers of strike action https://t.co/G90hPAanWC

[Sav Mondo @SavMondo]

Isak trying to make sure that Sweden don’t qualify so that he can force a move to current World Cup holders, Argentina.

[Andrew Musgrove @ADMusgrove]

Yoane Wissa has delivered a heartfelt message to Brentford staff and fans upon his departure.

Alexander Isak hasn’t made a single reference to a fan base that worshipped him, nor the manager who turned him into the player he is.

Such a lack of respect.
