🚨 Bernardo Silva: “Barcelona is one of the options but I’ve NOT made any final decision yet”.

“There are many options and I have respect for all interested clubs”.

“In the end I'm going to try to find a team where they want me, where I feel they really love me. That is very important and the day I make my decision they will know”.

🚨 Arne Slot: “I can tell you why we have lost 10 times: conceding late goals, today sums it all up with the injury situation”.

“It’s not my job to find excuses, my job is to find answers and that’s what I tried to find today. It worked not too bad in the first 45 mins”.

🚨🔵 Liam Rosenior confirms full trust in Romeo Lavia for Chelsea future: “He is outstanding with the potential to be a world class midfielder”.

“He has to clear a few more hurdles to fully train but I was happy to see him in training, we need to manage Romeo”.

@HMRCcustomers Yes

@Malachians Fear is one of the big boys makes him an offer he can’t refuse Phil. Need to lock him in

@jonoblain Spurs, hold my beer

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@razmo123 Hindsight eh. Same view is save your havertz money and you’d have £80m for a number 9

@razmo123 Ironic how football works behind the scenes (Kalvin Phillips)

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@razmo123 Watch a city player go on loan to West Ham to say thank you

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@Malachians I think he's one of the few that has evolved as a player in the past 12 months, he's a good backup RB, a good plan B. Becoming more hard to beat is the foundation of what we need to build, and good defensive players are key. I wouldn't overpay, but he's a good profile, I'd keep

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@razmo123 I think it’s control of the football side - so recruitment, playing staff, management, infrastructure, youth and reserves. The stuff that’s been neglected. Board seats in return (I think for 4 of the Glazer siblings leaving 2 on the board). It’s a start and a process

Jim, all I want from Christmas is you

[Mark Kleinman @MarkKleinmanSky]

Exclusive: Jim Ratcliffe’s acquisition of a 25pc stake in Manchester United Football Club will be announced today, 13 months after the launch of a review initiated by the Glazer family. Ratcliffe’s Ineos Sport will take control of the football side of the club. More soon.

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@razmo123 Will be interesting to see what they prioritise, how aggressively and how soon

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@razmo123 I’m bored of them papering over cracks. Rip it all up and start again

I'm a Jew in NYC and I made friends with a Palestinian in Gaza this week. Using @Snap Maps I was able to build a personal connection with a complete stranger and learn from their first-hand experience of whats happening on the ground in real-time. Heres the story + some takeaways

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@HamzaChoudhury1 What are you going to do with all your time off?

[Simon Jacobson @simonaldo]

@Malachians I thought about this, somewhat agree. To us fans who follow the club non stop it’s insulting, but to a player who might entertain going somewhere for 3-5 years they have it sold as the journey or project
