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. 
Unfortunately, it looks like Lioni has torn his ACL according to Fabrizio Romani. Really bad news for the lad, he will be out for the season

Hope at some point we’ll see Ekitike and Isak together with maybe Wirtz given a bit of freedom to drift left along with those 2. Almost a diamond 4 in the middle and 2 up but with license to roam
Slot wont do that.
We are actually holding gakpo deeper like.as if mlopp never left.
The real slot change is gluing salah and gakpo to the touchline rather than letting players go where they like.
In that context gakpo is doing what he is doing but he could certainly do better when he finally get a bit of ball he can use.
My chiesa played rw, 10 and lw last night v championship team but worked hard for us and delivered 2 assists.
Best thing for him now, don't try to rush him back.. Let him recover, and take time to regain confidence in his body. It comes as a blow when something like that happens and you don't feel invulnerable any more.
Fortunately he's not a starter (though he would have been important given the number of games), so barring further injury, and a signing or two in January, we should be able to give him the time he needs.
As much as anything, he knew. As I said last night, my niece was in the Main Stand just metres from him, and he was sobbing his heart out. I think Slot reffered to that as well.
I ****ing hate the early rounds of the LC. If we could go back in time, I'd prefer Soton beat us and we that we took Leoni off after 75 minutes for concussion, nd Ekitike missed an open goal and never got to take his shirt off, and...well, I suppose if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle. We had to play the kid sometime, and this was the ideal game. He was playing so ****ing good as well.
I agree. It's such a shame for the lad. At times like this you can try and feel better about the situation by putting things into perspective and wishing that Jota was out just for the season.As much as anything, he knew. As I said last night, my niece was in the Main Stand just metres from him, and he was sobbing his heart out. I think Slot reffered to that as well.

Not immediately, he'll have to wait until the window for squad changes opens
The registration rules were changed just before the current tournament kicked off to allow clubs to make one change to their squad during the league phase in case of injury or illness lasting a minimum of 60 days. Registration valid up to matchday 6 even if it's a temporary replacement.
Yup. Its "up to round 6" so what it actually means is up to the January transfer window when you can reregister anyway.
Chiesa can play cb as well.
Anyone who is that slow but works that hard deserves a break.
Classic cult hero material
he’s not fast, I’ll grant you, but he’s not that slow either, is he? Made really intelligent runs and was great on the ball from what I saw (second half), Isak will play a half, Chiesa a second half vs palace - very tough game for us. Palace are very strong.
