Longass thread on goalkeepers. Turns out that Alisson kid is half decent.

TLDR posted:

Overall Value in Goals ( = Goals Stopped + Prevented + Distributed)

Alisson - 18.94
Lloris - 7.34
Ramsdale - 7.21
Mendy - 5.74
Ederson - 3.88
De Gea - 2.96

According to this chart, Arsenal do not play with a striker. This is consistent with my understanding of Artetaball.

Not Premier League but clearly Liverpool-related and the Champions League is over anyway...

Way to go, the French!

quote:

The French authorities deployed riot police in large numbers at the Champions League final in Paris apparently due to a misconceived association of the 1989 Hillsborough disaster with hooliganism, according to an official report produced for France’s prime minister.

The report by Michel Cadot, the French sports ministry’s delegate on major sporting events, appears to confirm many Liverpool supporters’ bleakest assumptions at the final, that the heavy-handed policing they suffered, including being teargassed, was informed by prejudice about their likely behaviour.

Cadot’s 30-page report, delivered on Friday to the office of the French prime minister, Élisabeth Borne, refers to Hillsborough in a section on police intelligence before the final on 28 May between Liverpool and Real Madrid. The section recognises first that Liverpool supporters have not been known for violence at matches. However, it then continues: “Reference to the Hillsborough tragedy in 1989 – 97 deaths – for which the responsibility of the [police] was pointed out, led however to the drawing up of a firm policing arrangement, to maintain order in riot gear, in order to be able to respond to a risk of collective phenomena of hooliganism and havoc, as had happened in Marseilles on 13 June 2016 during the England-Russia game.”

It's utterly bizarre how the French authorities apparently went, "Liverpool supporters aren't really violent...BUT HILLSBOROUGH!!!" as if the basic truth about the tragedy hasn't been openly available for 30+ years.

Apparently French cops read The Sun.

I think you can basically do what ever you want and if you pay enough it stays completely private. Not every footballer that goes there is up to no good but at the very least there are no photographers when you are having a drink with your mates.

I, for one, can’t wait for this rousing story about how Arteta’s inspiring wolves and bears speech motivated Arsenal to overcome their bad start and have two subsequent utter collapses, resulting in a mediocre finish.

never underestimate the power of footballers and racing drivers to film and distribute footage of them up to no good that would otherwise go completely under the radar

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

Dubai is basically Rich Tasteless Idiots: The Country, and as such is perfectly suited to footballers
