Klopp’s farewell tour is going well.

We’ve been watching “From” on Amazon Prime - I’m pretty hooked. 

Whilst some of the acting is questionable, I’m really enjoying the mystery around it. Hoping this doesn’t go down the Lost route of too many questions and not enough answers however.

I started it and, to be honest, the first impressions weren't brilliant. It begins with a dull walk-and-talk sequence (you know the ones - slowly following someone down a corridor while they spout exposition) and then runs through the usual action setpiece combination of shimmying along beams, sliding down a slope on your bottom, grappling between platforms and a boss fight that keeps getting interrupted by cutscenes that add nothing. Then you've got several "squeeze through this narrow gap so the game has time to load the next skybox" bits.

Then the story started to get a little more interesting and I landed on the first proper world, so I'm going to give it a bit more of a chance to hook me.

Absolutely stick with it. Even better than the first game.

Downloading it at the moment - hopefully can get started on it tonight.

Fucking massive lads.

Harold Halibut released on Gamepass today. Looks great.

This was an all-time classic skit. Shame they kind of ruin the surprise with the thumbnail.

Fair play to Villa - they deserved that. Especially in terms of the second half performance as we really offered nothing and they were dangerous going forward. 

Still not over, but it’s looking like a fourth straight City win. Congratulations to their playing squad and manager, but as an institution - fuck them and their 115 charges.

Just finished The Traitors Australia series 2 and hahahahaha bloody nora, I've never seen anything like it.

In a good way?

Curb finale was perfect.

Probably because three teams are within two points of the top. It'd be ridiculous to claim Liverpool and Arsenal don't have a great shot at winning the league as well.

I mean, yes and no.

City’s remaining fixtures are Luton, Wolves and West Ham at home with Brighton, Fulham and Forest away. Realistically I can’t see them dropping any - except perhaps at Brighton? 

We have Villa, Chelsea, Bournemouth and Everton at home whilst we still have to go to Brighton, Spurs, Wolves and United. So many more banana skins there for us. 

I’ll obviously remain hopeful until it’s not mathematically possible, but City are too much of a juggernaut (with the asterisk of 115 PL charges hanging over their heads). 

I said this the other week but I don’t understand why anyone other than City are being talked about as potential champions.

I get that at this point of the season it’s encouraging to see three teams this close at the top but look at City’s fixtures. They’re not dropping any points for the remainder of the season - I don’t see it.

Does this one play much differently than last years?

After putting hours and hours and hours into Slay the Spire, I finally beat the heart (with the Ironclad). I feel like he will be the easiest to beat the game at though. 

Knocking Kane and City out on the way to the final would be stuff that dreams are made of.

So, it won’t happen. 

If we do get to the final I would fancy our chances though. 

But I’m not convinced we’re ready for five difficult European games amidst a title push to be honest - although I will happily be proved wrong.

Good way for Ramsdale to end his Arsenal career.

I've seen the first episode and am still at the point where I hardly know who anyone is. Does it all get a bit clearer?

At least they've fixed the 'buy Erling Haaland for 2.5m' glitch.

Yeah but that glitch was an entirely optional thing to do.
