Socceroos World Cup opener falling at 2:00 PM on a Sunday. These World Cup time slots feel like a little treat for all the years of waking up to watch football at stupid hours in the morning.
The Israel Lobby trying to get a teacher fired because the band he’s been playing in since 1982 have a few jokes at hitler’s expense might be the thing that turn Gen Xs and millennials against Israel. Ludicrous, hateful behaviour. @brooke_gc really is a useful idiot.
One of the signings of the season.
Victor Lindelof, Manchester United to Villa
Transfer fee: Free
Contract length: Two years
First impressions: Hard to pick fault with this one, given Villa’s financial restrictions. Remains fourth-choice centre-back.
Verdict: Easily Villa’s signing of the season. Deputised brilliantly for Pau Torres in defence and then, after Douglas Luiz and Lamare Bogarde had failed to fill the Boubacar Kamara-shaped hole there, stepped up to boss the midfield towards the end of their Europa League-winning run. For a free transfer, this was excellent business.
