Steve Clarke asking McKenna & Hendry, who play for Dinamo Zagreb & Al-Ettifaq, to play out from the back is a sackable offence. Utter nonsense. Just asking for trouble. Coaches asking bad footballers to do things they can't do needs to be stopped. Scotland are very lucky...

[Uche Amako @UcheAmako]

Ban the stutter step. Utter nonsense. Step up and hit the damn ball ffs. Harry Kane & England got very luck there. Good play by Madueke to press Modric quickly and win the penalty...

David Quayle has been helping Serena Williams train ahead of her return to the court

A Chinese robot wearing a clown wig kicked a child in the stomach.

[Thanos Angelopoulos @Th_Angelopoulos]

I call BS.

The facts are these:
Henry Nowak told officers he'd been stabbed. He told them he couldn't breathe. An officer replied, “I don't think you have, mate”. They dragged him along the ground and handcuffed him. He died before anyone called an ambulance.

No DEI course teaches you to ignore a dying man. Officers have a duty to assess injured persons, call for medical assistance, and not take one party's word as gospel. They failed on all three.

This is incompetence repackaged as ideological victimhood. “DEI made us feel certain ways” shifts anger from officers who let a teenager die onto a culture-war target. That's their defence strategy.

Henry told them he was dying. They didn't listen. They didn't follow protocol. That's a conduct and skill problem, not a DEI problem.

[Uche Amako @UcheAmako]

Maybe Serena Williams' desire to return shouldn't be a shock. If she saw the way world No 1 Sabalenka completely unravelled, she must think another grand slam can be done. 57 unforced errors is awful. First time grand slam winners at #RolandGarros is good for the sport...

[Uche Amako @UcheAmako]

Will I watch Serena Williams? Absolutely. Does this comeback make sense? Absolutely not. There's a good reason 44/45 year olds don't compete at the highest levels of sport & I can't see her having a Tiger 2019 Masters moment. She should look at how Venus has struggled...

The regret Arsenal should have is they weren't brave enough on the ball. Barely 200 completed passes is frankly appalling. The few times they got the ball forward, they looked dangerous. PSG created very little. Players needed to show more courage & belief. Big missed opportunity

[Sam Dean @SamJDean]

The Champions League final in Budapest comes 70 years after Istvan Gyokeres, Viktor's grandfather, fled Hungary in the dead of night. It's an astonishing story: uprisings, Soviets, illegal radios, secret letters. This is the tale of the "Black Horseman"

Extraordinary scenes outside the Emirates Stadium. Thousands of supporters have rushed here.

[Sam Dean @SamJDean]

Arsenal are the Premier League champions. This is the story of how they did it. Brainwashing, burglars, families, cigarettes, unity, deception, standards, saunas, board games, slogans, boats, paranoia, grass lengths, body language and more. Long read:

[Uche Amako @UcheAmako]

Lewis-Skelly's performance must end talk of leaving Arsenal. Finally played in midfield & was outstanding, bringing attributes others don't. Takes risks. Confident on the ball. Plays forward. Damning of Arteta that he's run Rice & Zubimendi into the ground when MLS can offer this

They're always so brave on social media but become cowards when
confronted with their own words.

A reform candidate was confronted about his racist social media posts.

[Uche Amako @UcheAmako]

The moment Rosenior was appointed, the timer started on when he'd get sacked. So inevitable. Trophies allowed Chelsea to distract from the fact they're a terribly run club with players of bad character. Liam should've never been hired & should've foreseen this happening...

[Telegraph Football @TeleFootball]

🚨 Liam Rosenior has been sacked as Chelsea head coach.

After a run of five successive Premier League defeats without scoring, Rosenior has lost his job 106 days into the 6½-year contract he was handed by Chelsea

As great as he was, Steven Gerrard can't be the best Premier League midfielder because he didn't win the title. That's a huge differentiator. Keane and De Bruyne are definitely above him. Can make the argument for Toure, Lampard & Scholes deserve to be ahead too... #MNF
