Mikel Arteta drew some unfavourable comparisons after he set his Arsenal side out to play negatively against Bournemouth and lost. But at least Osama bin Laden attacked.

The columnists had a totally normal one this past week.
This Daily Mail back page is an absolute disgrace. I know people will say to ignore it and not afford it oxygen but it’s simply embarrassing.

Everyone should take their lead from Big John.
If you moan about Tuchel appointment you should moan about your club’s lack of English players and managers. The prem hardly has any but people don’t moan. Let’s not be hypocrites bosh. Good luck Thomas. pic.twitter.com/xv9PqcFd05

Imagine it.
Really want Tuchel to win the World Cup. With an entire team of players who could have played for another country. And Shamima Begum is invited on to lift the trophy.

Tuchel can look forward to 18 months of this.

Proper order.
Absolute scenes at Anfield as David James saves not one but two penalties from an 11-year-old boy in the halftime shootout. The little lad is absolutely gutted and James gives not one shit about his feelings or the boos from the Kop.
