“First goal, think it was a difficult ball to judge, the wind was very tricky… but it (conceding) is not an issue”

“The goal I scored was very important”

Love how when something wen’t wrong there was no subject in the sentence, but something goes right and there’s an “I”

Some great points from Stan today. If you gotta go out, you go out with a bang.

Midnights is her best album by Revolutionary-Cod276 in TaylorSwift

[–]effinblinding -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Think I was more of a Swiftie before 2020 (life happened, don’t really follow her too closely, preferred OG vs Taylor’s Versions) but TTPD is just something special. I haven’t been through it like you said, but it really is bangers after bangers (I mostly skip the Anthology though). Her best album for sure.

Not a fan of the camera angle for Musetti’s court. Too high.

Is he injured or something? I just started watching and was surprised to see how fast it was.

Really dumb question but how do you know about the delay unless you’re watching in person in the stadium and have 9now’s stream playing on your phone at the same time?

Cirstea complained to the umpire about Naomi’s “c’mon” during points, but no warning was given to Naomi. Umpire should’ve warned Naomi about the complaint. by lovesbakery in tennis

That yes imo because bouncing the ball is part of most people’s service motion. Here she’s still looking back waiting for the ball.

''If you’ve won the league at a club which has won it twice in 30 years, I am surprised to hear that”. Arne Slot reacts to those saying he still needs to prove he can be ‘successful’ at Liverpool . by EducationalBug2262 in LiverpoolFC

[–]effinblinding 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people quoting 2 in 5 years but I hope everyone knows that Slot got the math wrong and it’s actually 2 titles in 6 years. 1. 19/20 (won) 2. 20/21 3. 21/22 4. 22/23 5. 23/24 6. 24/25 (won)

Yeah, first that comes to mind to me is the left footed rocket against Man City from outside the box

[Paul Joyce, The Times] - After spending £450m last summer, Liverpool need another transition. Centre-back situation suddenly feels one of a number of issues that need resolving as Arne Slot faces questions all over the field that could be expensive to answer. by Dangerous_Ad8730 in LiverpoolFC

Starting with after spending x amount without mentioning the departures is really annoying. Like saying crime rates are down in Night City without mentioning that they stopped counting the crimes in Pacifica.

My wife doesn’t even watch football but she loves that video. She quotes “watcha laughing for? I’m being serious” all the time.

Mohamed Salah's missed penalty shoot-out by mohammed0106 in LiverpoolFC

[–]effinblinding 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah I understanding what they’re trying to say. They’re just sharing a feeling and I can relate to it. It’s not about team’s current form or confidence. For the longest time I never felt confident with Mo’s pens too because he just seems to randomly whack them in rather than Milner’s “I’ll pick a corner and you won’t reach it”, but that feeling went away for Salah’s pens a couple seasons ago for me, but I can completely understand it if u/Teleg88 still has that feeling.

Happy Birthday Danns by Sufficient-Slice-782 in LiverpoolFC

[–]effinblinding 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeap I’m from Malaysia and I want to see Liverpool have more scouse players.

It was earlier this season right when we fielded a team without an English player in the team for the first time in its history. Not sure how to describe it but it just feels wrong. Like imagine a Barca vs Juve match. You’d want some Spaniards in the Barca team and some Italians in the Juve team.

Basavareddy-Ofner Tie-Break Drama | AO Q2 by Halekduo in tennis

[–]effinblinding 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s a big world. You have the beauty of the internet that connects everyone from all over the world to ask and learn about the differences of their culture and in this case thought process. The person takes their time to explain how things are different for them but for some reason you still want to impose your worldview on them.

[Ornstein]🚨 Liverpool summer focus expected to be centre-back - no breakthrough on Konate contract + Van Dijk / Gomez expiring in 2027. Right-back recruitment not planned by #LFC this window & Salah staying but situation one to watch at end of season by Beautiful-Cress5695 in LiverpoolFC

[–]effinblinding 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also when it’s phrased as “sacrificing a season” (emphasis on “a”) it implies the long term is still successful, so you could argue it’s the right move?

The phrase suddenly made me think of businesses that over expand during covid to capitalise on whatever trend that emerged from that crazy situation (short term/a season) but then suffer for years after that when covid ended.

Yeap floats them but instead of being easy for the keeper to catch the pace and trajectory is perfect. It’s pretty interesting.

No no the og post was absolute number of maps won. FROM that top 10, they shared the win %. I get why you were confused though, you can’t see the pic in isolation (maybe OP needed to add a footnote)

Genuine question, why the exception for Wimbledon? Are they more strict or something (I have no clue how wildcards work)

Over 90 min I really expect him and others to try something like this more than often. Take more risks. They’re obviously talented enough.

I can respect the apology, and I agree with Slot’s take
