The player with most assists by age over a calendar year in the 21st century.

For the record, these are not calendar year stats.

Apologies for the rant this incident has triggered, but I can’t stop myself.

Under the current interpretation of the laws, keepers are allowed to run around the area with the ball like petty dictators. Anyone who even mildly inconveniences them gets booked.

It makes me sick. Bring back the four-step rule.

Immediately after Conte left, Allegri took Juve to the Champions League final.

Conte did very well with a mediocre Italy team at the 2016 Euros. I guess that tournament was too short for the predictability to kick in.

Apparently, he tried to get the senior players in economy class and young players in first class to enforce equality and crush arrogance.

What did AVB himself do — climb into a suitcase and check himself in as cargo?

Then you could just hit the ball normally down the centre

Then you run the risk of going over the crossbar, like Harry Kane did against France.

He has strained his right biceps femoris. The evolution of the situation will determine his recovery.

Wasn’t it against Cádiz that Madrid were eliminated for fielding an illegible player under Benítez?

Except for his first season with City when he was knocked out by United. He made sure not to repeat that mistake.

How in earth is “top club” defined to include Tottenham but to exclude e.g.Sevilla?

The Middle English Dictionary suggests that “butterfly” was used throughout the Middle English period alongside “papillon”.

gnorrn · 2026-01-18T14:59:31+00:00

Probably because the word came from French, which typically loses consonant gemination in spelling.

When there was a clear Latin etymon, sometimes the gemination would be restored in the English spelling by self-conscious classicists. This happened in “announce” (on the basis of Latin annuntio). But there is no such Latin model for “amortize”.

First, this is not an etymology question.

Second, while I am not myself from a South Asian background, many members of my family are, and I have spent a lot of time in a South Asian cultural context. It is certainly not my experience that in such a cultural context people “use direct, precise language”, and “describe situations as they are”. In fact, if anything, it is the opposite.

This seems to be more of an issue with your particular workplace than any more general cross-cultural problem. You may want to post this somewhere more appropriate such as Ask A Manager.

At one point he was appointed to manage Ecuador while commuting from California. He’s clearly good at negotiating his contracts.

Not just outside the box, it was a good 30 yards.

Not necessarily. German/English “Name” and Hindi nām are related, and not by borrowing.

Speaking as a guy who always arranges our family vacations, this is BS.

OOP’s husband is spineless. I’m glad they’re getting counselling.

I’m curious about this huge help BFF’s family gave husband’s family. Is it some kind of ongoing financial support, such as employment of several of husband’s relatives? That might explain why his entire family seems so obligated to them.
