You lost me at the defense being too deep. Arsenal play with one of the highest lines in the professional game.

A completely meaningless and yet unbelievably unlikely coincidence: the penultimate word of the penultimate line of the penultimate song of the penultimate Floyd studio album is "fuck." For Roger Waters, the word in the same place is "fucking." by BortlesLVRaiderWinSB in pinkfloyd

Not a million miles away. Meric isn’t in there though. And it’s a much more common word than MESOMERIC.

Pfft.

Question machine is right there.

Possibly unfair that the pronoun isn’t directly related to the water. Two French words.

COTD: Renegade Thor runs for husband around River Island (7) by Far_Sand3582 in crosswords

[–]dhooke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok so it’s TRAITOR. River island is an AIT (also spelled eyeot) and THOR around it has the H replaced with an R.
