The pissy thing about is is allies have already about 2,000 of these between them that could be sent straight to Ukraine. Germany don't even need to use there own stock. The whole idea of licencing agreement is bullshit tbh. Especially when everyman and his dog have them in stock. It's not like the tech is that secretive anymore.

Worked exceptionally hard today. Held the ball up really well and deserved his goal.

Even sky still haven't picked up on the heel stamp the clowns. The pen was for the heel stamp, not the push which is why the ref went back to check after originally giving the goal. Anyway, bit indifferent for JJ today. Gave possession away cheaply at times but very involved in much of our good play. Hopefully getting back to match fitness we'll start to see him impose himself in games again.

Him and Boubacar are my favourite outfield players at the moment. Just ooze class in everyway and getting better. What a partnership they are becoming. Absolutely dominated JWP and Co today.

Emerybody just needs to enjoy the ride.

I thought first half we were excellent all over the pitch just missing that killer pass or bit of luck. Second half a thought Buendia, Bailey and JJ switched off at times allowing Southampton to regain possession to easily with poor give aways. The defence along with Kamara and Luiz were excellent all game. Martinez, Luiz and Kamara are on another level to the rest of the team imo. The 3 musketeers. Swagger, composure, just pure class, and most importantly end product on a consistent basis. Luiz stats against JWP at half time weren't even comparable the domination was so one sided.

Nearly double the possession, double the pass rate, a win, away from home. Boom!!!

The ed got you over the line there. Well played

Congratulations on getting pregnant

Ollie Watkins will do!!! Get in

Free Kic. We need an ings, I mean Mings header about now.

Night and day from the first to the second half.

It was a foul end of. Stood on his foot ffs

Kamara, Luiz and Martinez are our Crown Jewels.

I Ollie and Bailey come out up for it and we continue in the same manner of the first half we'll win this. Comon lads.

He's having a great game. What you on about. Nobody is anonymous today. They're all putting in a shift.

I'm really pleased regardless of the result atm. Finally watching us play one touch football with good movement. Just need that end product but really good stuff.

Unlucky

Don't want to jump the gun here but we are looking far better playing out from the back.

I totally agree about the Russian military wanting power back which is why I don't think Russians will get behind Prigozhin. I do however, see someone like Medvedev taking the reins and blaming Putin for everything. Even if others persuaded him on the direction he's decided to take Russia. And I total agree that whatever happens it's hard to see anything other than a shitshow.

I'm not so sure he could become the next Putin or even Russian leader. I think that is well out of his own comfort zone and reach but time will tell I suppose. His background in my opinion is more than enough to keep him away from the throne of Russia. He's a common criminal, a thug and a thief, not a politician and probably doesn't have the kind of personality that would be able command respect in the Kremlin. Especially from those that see themselves as the elite. He might have Putins ear now, but once that is gone I just don't see others standing with him. I think there is more chance of him trying to align himself with someone else than take the hotseat. I don't think any amount of gold mines could save him either if certain entities, not just in Russia but elsewhere want him gone at some point. He owns a mercenary group, not any official title, official position nor have any sort of diplomatic protection to hide behind. The fact that he is now worth billions puts a bigger price tag on his head imo. Like I said, we'll see. He could be the surprise in all this, I may be completely wrong(good chance btw) and somehow he comes out smelling of roses but I have my doubts.

Ukraine war latest: Wagner mercenary group boss writes to the White House; US urges Ukraine to hold off on major offensive | World News | Sky News Head of Wagner mercenary group writes to the White House Yevgeny Prigozhin, financier for the infamous Wagner Group, has penned a short letter to the White House demanding to know what crime his company is being accused of. The US has announced new sanctions on the group, which is fighting in some of the fiercest hotspots in Ukraine. As of yesterday, the Wagner Group has been designated a significant Transnational Criminal Organisation by the US. Mr Prigozhin shared the letter, which was written in English and addressed to White House national security spokesperson John Kirby, on his Telegram channel. "Dear Mr Kirby, Could you please clarify what crime was committed by PMC Wagner?" he wrote. Mr Kirby had called Wagner a "a criminal organization that is committing widespread atrocities and human rights abuses". Wagner is a private military group known for its ruthlessness and for recruiting convicts from Russian prisons. Bit of stupidity in this, but maybe not. I mean what crime haven't Wagner committed would be the more reasonable question to ask. I think Prigozhin is going to eventually become a fall guy in this being one of the potentially dispensable characters. Which I think is the reason he's been trying to create a charm offensive in his treatment of Ukrainian POW's and ensuring his little moments of goodwill are captured on film. Now trying to dialogue independently with Washington whilst becoming more out front in Russia. Back covering at it's finest from both sides probably realising Putin can't be relied upon if Russia folds and even if they don't he'll still be a target for the west.

I don't like Eubank Jnr but I hope he smashes Smith. TBH it is disgraceful this is PPV. Not title, no history, no real care. A double knockout would be the best outcome.

It's seems to me that the Minsk agreements weren't really worth the paper they were written on and that Russia decided to manipulate it and the situation in the Donbas by giving Russian citizenship to 720,000 citizens in 2019. Explainer: What Are the Minsk Agreements? - The Moscow Times As tensions between Russia and the West over Ukraine remain at an all-time high, the 2015 Minsk protocols have become a key factor in discussions aimed at resolving the long-simmering conflict in eastern Ukraine. France and Germany-mediated talks between Russia and Ukraine on Thursday in Berlin failed to reach a breakthrough despite nine hours of negotiations, with the Russian and Ukrainian sides disagreeing over their interpretations of the Minsk agreements. Here’s a brief look at the Minsk agreements and why Ukraine and Russia have been unable to find a middle ground: What’s the difference between Minsk I and Minsk II? The first Minsk Protocol was signed by Ukraine, Russia, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) and the pro-Russia separatist leaders in September 2014. Ukraine and the separatists agreed to an immediate 12-point ceasefire deal including withdrawal of heavy weapons and prisoner exchanges. But the agreement failed to stop the fighting, with frequent violations by both sides. Five months later, after Ukraine lost territory to pro-Russia separatists, Minsk II was signed. Representatives of Russia and Ukraine, mediated by France and Germany, signed a 13-point agreement in February 2015. The second agreement also quickly broke down, with the OSCE reporting around 200 weekly violations in 2016-2020 and more than 1,000 since 2021, according to Novaya Gazeta. In addition to the ceasefire, Minsk II’s notable points include the withdrawal of weapons, monitoring of the ceasefire by the OSCE and the holding of local elections in the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics on their future status in Ukraine. Where do Russia and Ukraine disagree? The major disagreements over Minsk II stem from differing interpretations of Russia’s role in the conflict and how the points should be implemented. The Minsk accord does not contain any obligations that Russia is bound to fulfill. Moscow calls itself a mediator, like the OSCE, to help Ukraine and the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics reach an agreement, according to BBC Russia. Ukraine argues that point 10 of the Minsk agreement, which mentions the withdrawal of “all foreign armed forces” refers to Russia, while Russia denies having any military presence on the territories. The implementation order of political and military steps is another point on which Russia and Ukraine disagree. While Russia argues that elections in the separatist republics should come before the withdrawal of military equipment, Ukraine insists on the opposite. More than 720,000 people living in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions have obtained Russian citizenship under a simplified passport regime Russia adopted in 2019 — something Ukraine sees as a violation of the Minsk accord. Ukrainian law recognizes the Donetsk and Luhansk regions territories as occupied by Russia, and as a result Ukrainian officials argue that granting special status to these territories is unfeasible. Who has said what about the Minsk accord? Mainstream Russian and Ukrainian media tend to reiterate arguments made by their countries’ officials. In Ukraine, the widely watched ICTV broadcaster debates about why exactly “the Minsk accord is dead” and news website Censor.net discuss why Russia misinterprets the Minsk agreements and how they should be rewritten. Russian state-run television refers to the Minsk agreements as “the only solution” to Russia-Ukraine tensions, echoing the statement made by Russian President Vladimir Putin in his Monday meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron. Speaking to Macron on Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenksiy said Ukraine is committed to fulfilling the Minsk accords, as long as this happens in the way Kyiv interprets them. Earlier this year, Ukraine’s security chief argued that the full realization of the Minsk accord would lead to domestic destabilization that would give Russia the upper hand.
