Not that it’s the most explosive or devastating interview I’ve ever seen, but isn’t he just being…..honest?

If constituents are bugging their MPs about it then I can see the political logic in campaigning for something which will please/help your constituents without costing you anything. If you’re supposedly against more air travel in general though…

Do you have a link to what he originally said?

All players are mercenaries, there’s no mystery around their motivations. Ironically it’s usually the pure mercenaries who get pilloried while the badge-kissers get celebrated, but for some reason it’s been flipped here and you’re just following the crowd. I’m pretty sure that interview with...

It’s people telling themselves stories about good players moving to better teams for more money.

Dear Rich, I wrote but you still ain’t callin’

I find it odd that a player telling us he doesn’t want to be here anymore is now a display of honourable virtue (as if Hamer and O’Hare’s motivations weren’t also completely transparent, and were monetised by the club to the maximum extent possible). But again - however people want to...

Just like Gyokeres - and yet!

You’re saying fans are upset with him because he didn’t move until a club was actually interested in signing him?

Players don’t always have the same emotional responses to games as the fans (and for good reason). They don’t always run around screaming like lunatics after we score either.

Huh? Green card holders ARE permanent residents.

How did he lead the club on? Did we genuinely think he was going to turn down a £15 million move to a Premier League club?

We have more serviceable backup options for Dovin than we do any other position on the pitch. You never want to lose an obvious starter to a serious injury, but Dovin may be the most replaceable of all of them - this is not the season-ending blow it’s being painted as.

It’s all pantomime really, but I find the people trying to rationalise their different reactions to Hamer, O’Hare and Gyokeres as if they all didn’t do exactly the same thing in orchestrating their moves away to be bizarre.

He signed the best offer on the table. He ended up at a better team, earning more money. What should he have done differently?

The same people who think it’s outrageous to clap a former player will happily throw all kinds of shit at our own players. Baffling.

This is an expansion of the existing rules which means immigrants who are already in the country legally (and to whom First Amendment rights should subsequently apply) will now have to let the State Department go through their private messages. While I know that “But Biden” is what often passes...

No, but if next season is gearing up to be an all-out assault on promotion (and the signing of Grimes suggests it is) then it would seem likely that Lampard would want to sign a true #1 of his choosing, rather than muddle through until Christmas.

Rough timing if true - depending on what we do in the summer he could conceivably struggle to get back into the side.

Yes - terrible keeping. You’d expect a 10 year-old to save this
