Just seen this in the online store. You need Ultimate Game Pass, though. It's a steal if you use it for the first 14 days – if you wait long enough, you can get all the first six FF by July/August for about a tenner.

Would've loved to go and watch a game in Vancouver. But man, first I failed in the lottery, and now I've been granted "exlusive" 48-hour access to remaining tickets. I have three options: Australia on the 13th of June, New Zealand vs. Egypt or New Zealand vs. Belgium. Ticket prices? Between 380 to 500 USD. For Category 1 or 2. What did WC tickets cost in the 90ies or early 2000s? I have no point of reference.

Adaptation I hadn't seen this in ages. Brilliant film, so cleverly constructed and executed. So many layers. A movie about the struggles of a non-fictional screenwriter with a fake twin adapting a fictional story by an existing writer. Very metaphysical, with that twist at the end. And the cast. Nicolas Cage, Meryl Streep, Chris Cooper, Ron Livingston, Tilda Swinton, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Brian Cox, Cara Seymour. I love Spike Jonze's output.

Bobby De Cordova-Reid. Flair player. Very inconsistent. One good to great game, followed by three to four mediocre ones.

The moment when he was on camera, cursing the shit out of some players whilst analyzing the game made me like him even more.

Have I already mentioned that we haven't kept a clean sheet in 28 consecutive league matches?

Okoli, just Overall, much improved performance, a step up from the previous game. Very impressed by Thomas. I know he gets a lot of stick, but the man's got iron lungs. Unbelievable shift he put in tonight. I just can't stand seeing Ayew in a Leicester shirt for much longer. Guy's an energy drain, sucking all life and attacking intent out of the team. A point is a point is a point. Norwich on Saturday is a must-win game, there's no other way. And how about a clean sheet for a change. It's been 28 games now... Or 31 games where we have conceded a goal or more (out of 34). Horrendous stat.

Luke Thomas has truly put a shift in tonight. Respect. Worked his socks off, played for two.

Saturday. 12.30pm, Norwich (h).

At Rennes?

What they lacked in speed, they more than made up with positioning, anticipation and experience.

On the other hand, Ayew has scored more than twice as many goals than Daka this season. Well, the choices are overabundant...

... less than he worries the supporters of the club he's playing for.

Daka. Do you know? Do you know? Do you really know how to score? Do you know how to score?

Daka: £21m, millions in wages per year, 2 goals, 3 assists in the league so far Mavididi: £7m, 2 goals, 1 assist in 34 league games this season Ayew: £5m+ in transfer fees, *falls to the ground, waves hands*, 5 goals, 3 assists Okoli: Brainfart after brainfart, cost a measly £13m Winks: 1 goal, 2 assists, £10m Skipp: £29m (bonuses included), 1 league goal this season, 0 assists Then the car crash that is/was Wout Faes (£15m). Our scouting and management has been atrocious in the past few years. Just chucking money around for mediocre to sub-par players. We're looking at £100m+ in transfer fees for little to no return. Add to that the poor stats from players such as Ricardo (1 assist all season), De Cordova-Reid (1 assist all season), Monga and the injuries to James and Fatawu. And then our goalkeeping issues... Man, we are so fvcked.

And just before half-time. And Okoli again. And yet another game WITHOUT A CLEAN SHEET. 31 now (out of 34). Ridiculous.

One pass to undo all the great effort up to this point. Just. We have some of the thickest footballers in this league.

Uff.

OKOLI, ALL IS FORGIVEN! (Well, sort of)

Do own goals count?

Juventus 4th:

The best defense against the second-worst defense in the Championship this season. Hmm... MIddlesbrough have only lost twice at home this season, against Coventry and Hull. So, where will our first clean sheet in 28 games come from? This calls for an upset.

One of the LCFC fan pages on FB posted about this: Former youth player Maswanhise is still the Scottish PL top scorer at the moment, with 14 goals. Scored a penalty today. 19 goals in total in all competitions.
