    Gotta say, if Mason Mount was ever part of a team that beat Forest in a final (like that would ever happen), it would fill me with joy to see something like this.

    Verstappen is a fantastic driver but I will always want Lewis to win a world championship whilst he keeps driving even if it's boring.

    While I agree with petty much all of this, I'd still happily see Hammy smash out 10 WDCs all the same ?

    It's going to be very funny watching Leeds fans realising that it was Bielsa that everyone loved and actually no one likes Leeds utd.

    Easy when the manager gets his minions into the opposition training ground bushes to spy on their tactics.
    Never took that into account.
    Waiting for the day Bielsa leaves so they can follow the Sunderland path.

    Watford's seen the result ?
    For context: When Bournemouth played Watford earlier this season, Jefferson Lerma was a right sod the entire game, diving, picking fights, etc. Bournemouth won and he posted that Emoji after the game to mock Watford fans complaining about his antics. Seems Watford haven't forgotten it.

    Probably is, but then could also be missing friends and family, with a young family of his own fancy being closer to home. He may see this as the perfect opportunity to fulfil a dream of playing in the Premier League, one last crack if the interest is genuine.
    Looks like he's loved over there by the fans, but look at Rooney, they adored him also but talk was his wife wanted to move back. One day you might bag a woman of your own and realise you can't do exactly what you want all the time ?

    I've never understood why British F1 drivers get shade for living in Monaco?
    If my job entailed me living out of a suitcase for 40+ weeks a year, and being paid a fortune for doing so, damn sure I'm going to base myself in a sun drenched enclave a couple of hours from Blighty with a low tax rate.

    In other Mars news, NASA today signed a contract with SpaceX to demonstrate refueling in orbit (space people bizarrely call it "on orbit") by 2022:
    This is important for NASA's Artemis Moon programme and also the Mar settlement plan, as the Starships will need to refuel for both. It comes about because Jeff Bezos and his Blue Origin have halted the main Human Landing System in the Senate, of which this would be a part. NASA can't afford to wait, so is getting the money to SpaceX  by another means to be able to keep the ambitious 2024 schedule on track. That's one possible reading of it anyway.

    Finally SpaceX has posted its own tremendous footage of the successful SN15 test flight:
    SpaceX has designed its own Thunderbirds-style Starship transporter which secured the rocket without a crane and took it back up to the launchpad, where it's currently standing waiting to be prepared for a second test flight. Which would be remarkable.

    Last night Starship prototype SN15 (they skipped forward 4 numbers after SN11) delivered a largely perfect test flight, and landing. A very soft landing too, with the six stubby legs holding up fine. There was a methane fire on the landing pad for several minutes after touchdown, but eventually the automated systems "safed" the vehicle and today it looks almost good to go again.
    There was a lot of cloud cover so the video of the whole flight isn't great, but here are the launch and landing highlights:
    It's a fantastic achievement. There were a lot of improvements on this prototype, preparing for the future orbital flight test. For instance you can see the black band of heatshield tiles. Only one fell off! 
    A Human colony on Mars is a step closer today. As is a return to the Moon now Starship has won the NASA contract for that!

    I agree. Not only that, my perception is that he’s got a lovely-lad temperament about him. I can see him being really polite and respectful to the older generations and being a caring son etc. Bet his parents are mega proud. 
     
    just popped into my head that he plays with a smile and an enthusiasm that is endearing. Made me think of Tom Ince and the perception people had/have of him because he’s got a stern look when playing. 
     
    smile and the world smiles with you.

    It’s weird, I struggle to name city’s star players. Everyone knows Kane, and Salah, but City don’t seem to have just one stand out guy, they’re just all really, really good. And smart players as well, able to play that system and know what they’re supposed to be doing. Imagine Guardiola trying to do that with our players. I think that was Cocu’s problem.

    Good to see Liverpool players showing that the most important thing to them is the supporters, by refusing to wear shirts saying that 'football is for the fans'. I pretty much think that they are all wondering how much more money their agent will be able to get them.
    If the lot of them sat down on kick off, with prior agreement with Leeds, and took off their Liverpool shirts to reveal a football is for the fans statement (possibly with an 'but we all hate Leeds' addendum) then that would show the world what they thought. Instead they are probably calling their social media fixer to ask their personal watch vendor to pop round with something tasteful and gold and diamondy, as they rub their hands with dollar signs in their eyes and sink to their knees to suck down Satan's black worm jism, as Bill Hicks would probably say.
    I truly belong to the generation who has fallen out of love with the game and those involved with it. Give me Gary Micklewhite and Bobby Davison any day of the week.

    Just to demonstrate how angry this European Super League nonsense has made me, I am actively rooting for Leeds tonight. The "big six" have screwed up so much that they've somehow made Leeds the good guys.
    It's a shame this game's behind closed doors, because, give them their dues, I'm sure a packed out Elland Road with a sizeable Liverpool away support would have an awful lot to chant about if they were allowed in.
