    About time Liverpool got an upgraded stadium. I'm amazed how many clubs try to be competitive in the PL and around Europe with such tiny stadium capacity. So much easier to get revenue for one thing, and unlike West Ham in the Olympic stadium Liverpool can actually get enough fans in.

    The whole thing has been a bit of a debacle. This has been about 12 years in the making, with a few new stadium designs being worked on. But I feel the owners have made the right decision to expand Anfield instead. Far more corporates, which is where the real money is, too.

    I've often wondered why keepers bother with a wall, as 99% of free-kicks scored are due to the keeper seeing the ball too late. I now have my answer

    That#s the 4th or 5th time I've seen a link to that video posted -- but it's blocked in Austria!

    I actually have Calhanoglu on my manager team. Hasn't actually had that great a season apart from free kicks. I'm starting to wonder if he's really anything special in regular run of play.

    I looked at his stats, and he certainly doesn't score many for an AM. Maybe he's tidy with assists?

    4 goals, 3 assists this season. 11 and 4 last season, though that was with an abysmally bad Hamburg side.

    halibut do you have money on Bournemouth to get the win or draw tonight? It's a pretty safe bet.

    Ex-Everton big-head Dan Gosling pulls one back! The comeback starts here!

    And Spurs three-up. Kane with another goal this season. Shouldn't he be given a chance at international level. He's gotta be a better 'big man' option than Lambert.

    But do you want to do it too early? Berihino got the call up and has now become crap. Coincidence or something else?

    Any idea what the fines are like for driving (repeatedly) without a license in England? Spain?

    I read that as "diving" at first. In Spain, you get a raise for that.

    Well, with all Southampton's injuries, who else was going score for them?
