    Gomez had a poor game but it's likely a one-off. He plays better alongside Virgil.

    Leoni's mother is a physiotherapist so he will have additional medical help. Should get the results of his scan today.

    Yeah, not an excuse as been a yellow for so long and it’s a weird celebration anyway - but no idea why it needs to be a yellow. Such a weird rule to bring in.

    They really did it to stop slogans on shirts but they put it sown to delaying the restart of games.

    It'd a fifa and uefa rule so across all the sport and since 2004.

    So basically Ekitike from the first moment he kicked a ball was subject to this rule and should know better.

    Tearing your clothes off in celebration seems stupid to me but its done by some players to show their abs.

    They should be getting a 2week fine every time by the fa given to a proper charity to soften their cough if its thst big a deal.

    Apparently Ekitike's celebration was a copy of Messi's El Clasico celebration in 2017. The two players had a good connection while at PSG together. Messi nicknamed Ekitike 'el Fierro' which means iron rod in English. And that's the trivia for the day.

    I did say that was the trivia for the day but will add this - that shirt that Messi held up in what has been described as his iconic celebration, sold for $450,000. :eek:
