@BradMayorFPL Fading France vs Senegal; starting with Yamal, Oyarzabal, Kimmich, Wirtz, Musiala & Raphinha, but $1.5m ITB so in MD2 I can either sell Haaland & Musiala for Mbappe & Olise w/Vini as 12th man; or sell Wirtz & Musiala for Vini & a 7.0m mid (Paqueta?) and have Mbappe as 12th man
@DjokovicFan_ Even I, with a Fed pp, agree! His inside out forehand is also ridiculous so if Nole is in his backhand corner, you're in trouble....except you need to hit into it to open up the space into his forehand corner. Damn.
The UK working time directive means you can't be forced to work more than an average of 48 hours a week.
Reform's attempts to normalise 40+ hour working weeks are a clear attempt to set an agenda of rolling back on employment rights workers have fought for over the past century
This was pretty difficult, but these are my Top 5 Beatles songs;

The pollen from the London plane trees during these two weeks of the year is like fibreglass, gets in the eyes, throat, lungs. Nobody is immune. It’s not a native tree, it’s a man-made hybrid, even though many of them are pretty old. There ought to be a ban on planting it, and they should be gradually replaced with native trees.
Per @tennisabstract records, in the last 2 years since Madrid 2024 Sinner is 23-0 vs non-Alcaraz opponents. Rafa-like stats - 91.3% service holds, 40.1% return games won - total of 131.4%! 71.1% of serve points won, 46.1% of return points won - total of 117.2%- barely believable
And Sinner has won 57 of his last 61 sets on clay against players not named Carlos Alcaraz - against whom he has won a mere 4 out of his last 12 on the surface. But that would have been 5 out of 11 had he taken any of those championship points at Roland Garros last year
