is to sign one of the best goalkeepers of the last decade.

 

And literally everyone else in the world, to be fair.

I mean what they've done is pretty much the newly-promoted equivalent to Chelsea. 30 new signings! Insanity.

Try Manchester United - Liverpool rivalry.

How to put it, since you lot lack that sorta thing.

Basically Bear - Packer with fans actually being properly emotionally invested.

First, Packers fans are nuts and probably are the closest example of how you folks in Europe build your identity around your sports team for the NFL. And second, they're not nearly as crazy as hardcore fans of the college game, which I keep telling you guys is as old and as real as how you feel about this sport. We just got better at beating the shit out of each other without actually killing one another over the games before you.

So guns are good I guess? Because the places that love the sport the most also have some of the worst laws.

Nothing about Phil Collins?

I need that to be like the seventh entry on a person's controversy section to really feel alive.

May I introduce you to Nile Ranger, whose wiki has a truly impressive list of arrests, accusations and idiotic acts yet doesn't even get to the part where he once got his own name tatooed on his face and then went on the run from the police like that?

That was quite the read. And while I get tattoos are cool, don't put anything on your face. A friend of mine who is a former rapper turned photographer and painter got one a few months back and I keep sending him pics of Tekashi 69.

I could have told you about him ages ago before he went off the rails. Used to police the little twat and his mates. 

I  gotta ask, what everybody is wondering: Did you ask him for an autograph/to sign a jersey, when he broke into NU's first team?

The extra salt in Liverpool’s many wounds is that City have finally faded just when we’re not ready to take advantage.  All those years of 90+ points just to finish second, but this is the year we’re not able to compete.  Typical.

I hope Klopp sticks around for a proper rebuild.  I have a feeling that after Dortmund he has something to prove in that regard.

Everything Man City has achieved since 2008 has been primarily because of rampant cheating. Their cheating has robbed more deserving clubs that played by the rules from winning trophies. They deserve to have their licence revoked and to be relegated. They'll get away with a slap on the wrist though since financial regulations are meaningless when enforcement is a joke.
