Worth pointing out that for all the gnashing of teeth over the scares he gives people, the first goal yesterday started with Ali making a tool of Fernandes.

That clearance on the stroke of half time was also missed but vital.
That move mocking Pickford’s time wasting might be my single favourite moment from him - and we’re talking about a man whose save against Napoli ultimately led us to CL win and whose goal at WBA after his father’s tragic death lead a patched-up side to CL qualifications.
In that single moment, he became the embodiment of thoughts of fifty thousand people in the stadium and who knows how many who watched on TV. The ingenuity to react that way, though, and give all of us the last laugh over that grinning, reckless prick… Timeless.

That’s the one where you raise the grill height to manage temperature? I fucking love those.
Also called a Gaucho grill, you can buy them readily in the US. the firebox on the left is where you burn your dried wood splits to create lumps of charcoal, which you transfer under the cooking area for grilling. Some guys will raise the grill out of the way and just create their coal base right there as well. I’d build one but it just rains too much here.
If you’ve ever had a proper bistecca ala Fiorentina, well this is your stairway to heaven.

Kids who want to be top goalies should watch this, the level he gets and yet is mobile to react is quality.
Alisson is for me the best goalie we have had, his whole feature set is excellent, positioning, bravery, shot stopping, catching, passing he has it all and now for me he intimidates the opposition as they know 9 times out of 10 they have to be perfect when through on goal. Just a machine

Few days gone and I still can’t decide between Alissons ‘time wasting’ and Luis Suarez dive celebration in front of Moyes.

Alisson for me, this lot are far more horrible than that lot were and this gets to mock Pickford again.

Alisson Becker is the first goalkeeper in Europe’s top five leagues to reach 20 clean sheets this season.
