Matchday chaos = here | YNWA

@nonewthing Way tooo many words to say no PL or CL

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

Our guy Moneyballing without any football context 💀
Missing: stakes, opposition quality, home/away, crowd noise, match importance, fatigue, pressure moments, knockout vs league, rivalry history. Spreadsheets don't do goosebumps.

The Argentina come back against Egypt is one of the best matches in football history.

I analyzed ~50,000 games with Fable to show just how crazy it was.

Of the 10,138 times that a team has been up 2-0 at 79', only SIXTEEN times (0.16%) did they ever make a come back at the end of 90 minutes.

This is the first time it's happened in a World Cup.

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@deedydas @deedydas The list seems pretty irrelevant; List seems to be ignoring real football context. Comparing bundesliga and regular PL games with nothing at stake vs a CL final or world cup finals...

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@GallantSays @GallantSays Judging Thierry Henry on his accent instead of his football IQ is wild ; that says more about the listener than the speaker. Get well soon.

For all the fans who're saying Egypt's goal was correctly ruled out - how far back in the play does VAR go before it feels like a total farce? Feels like VAR is used as a tool to manage the game/story telling.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Incredible Egyptian goal is disallowed because of a foul far away, then same situation a few minutes later and goal for Argentina not disallowed! No VAR, nothing? FIFA again looks like a corrupt joke, playing favorites for stars.

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@MelissaReddy_ @ryan3levis So true. We don't need VAR to be perfect. We need it to stop being more unpredictable than the football it's supposed to fix...Feels like VAR is used to control the narrative. Its so blatant at this point.

History will be kinder to Slot. But it’s the right decision. Luis Enrique- are you free for a quick call? #champi̇onsleaguefinal #lfc

@grok what was my first tweet

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@footy_road @grok is this really true

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@TheKop_com STOP STARTING CODY GAKPO

“arneslotball sounds like a nice username to back the manager, let’s see how this goes…”

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@Watch_LFC I just dont understand this. Yes VVD and Salah arent the same players - but when are others going to step up? Except Szoboszlai- not a single player is playing for the badge and stepping up.

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

I truly believe only one man can put it right for Liverpool long term - build the gameplay around Wirtz. Take the hard calls and drop people who dont fit. #LiverpoolFC

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

Triple captain Rodon? Dark magic #FPLCommunity

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@breathelfc Well...he didnt pass to Wirtz vs united as well. I love Salah but he needs to reinvent his game in this team.

Hey Ty - I too struggled with sleep and in the process of trying to fix it, discovered that the the best solution was to build my life around sleep. That's very counter-intuitive in 2025. Sleep deprivation is seen as strength and virtue and high quality sleep is perceived as weak. The opposite is true. Culture will catch up.

I'm not suggesting that you're part of the sleep-deprivation-is-a-virtue crowd and only mention it because it has this spill over influence into our shared cultural habits. So with that said, I'll share what I'm doing and think works best for most.

- final meal of the day 4 hours before bed
- screens off 60 min before bed
- same bedtime every day
- 60 min wind down before sleep (no work or fights)
- read a book for 10 minutes before bed
- light first thing in the am, either the sun or 10000 lux light to strengthen circadian rhythm
- final caffeine around noon
- liquid intake pushed to the earlier parts of the day, tapering off in the afternoon. I limit fluid intake after around 4 pm. I also make sure my liquids are mineralized with tea or electrolytes. Pure water can make you urinate more, causing you to get up during the night.

You may be doing these things already and if so may have something else going on.

What I've found is that my sleep quality is determined by my resting heart rate before bed. If I'm between 39-44 bpm, I'll have a perfect night's sleep. If I'm 50+, I'll lose some meaningful amount of sleep quality (20-40%).

It is so consistent and predictable.

So the habits above are all about lowering your heart rate, calming your nervous system and preparing your body to sleep.

Making these things habitual allows your body to know what's coming. So that it can excrete melatonin, lower your body temp, and run all its other sleep processes.

One thing that really gets people is rumination. Basically unreconciled things looping in your mind. Could be about a fight you had, or something you're anxious about, etc. I find that if I give myself 60 minutes, without screens, to do calming activities like going for a walk, breath work, talking to family or friends, journaling etc. it helps my body and mind calm down. Then when my head hits the pillow I'm reconciled with the world.

There are other things of course like having a dark room, colder temp (~67-70F) (temp cooled bed is great), making sure no sounds are waking you up, stuff that I'm sure you know. And of course no alcohol.

If you try to do these things for one week, giving your body the opportunity to find a rhythm, it may breakthrough for you.

Noooooooo! How is throwing kitchen sink a tactic here ?

Arne Slot:

“If you told me before kick off that we’ll create these many chances against a low block, I would’ve taken that immediately.”

[TheAnfieldAdda @TheAnfieldAdda]

@LFCLaurie @DONTM1SSS What’s your take on Isak? IMO saying we didn’t create enough to feed him can no longer be accepted. Demand the ball and do something. Ekitike does that.
