Don’t understand all the angst about #NUFC ’s second goal. Aren’t those dreadful offside calls what VAR was brought in to overturn? Teams will have to learn not to switch off when the flag goes up. Shelvey didn’t.

One thought for today - Mike Ashley is owed £111m by #NUFC and is adamant the full amount will form part of his asking price for the club. Ellis Short - generally held to be a complete disaster - wrote off pretty much an identical amount to ensure #SAFC could survive and rebuild.

Genuinely surprised by the negativity towards #England tonight. Yes, they lost their way somewhat. But if you want to see haplessness against North African opposition, watch the 2010 World Cup game vs Algeria. That was awful. This was streets ahead of that. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
