Really enjoyable first 45 at Villa Park. Chelsea have played some lovely stuff, but it seems like they've got at least two major mistakes in them per half

Wolves score with their first shot in the 78th minute
Chelsea have been as good in the second half as they were bad in the first. Playing with such intensity, restarting the game quickly from dead balls. Testing last 15 minutes for West Ham
PSG are such a good watch when they're on it. Supreme technical quality + relentless tempo. For once it's the Premier League team that can't deal with the opposition's speed and dynamism
That might be the worst decision I've ever seen on a football pitch. Absolutely insane from Brahim Diaz
Extraordinary end to the AFCON final. Whoever resolves this impasse deserves the FIFA Peace Prize
Off to the Stadium of Light tomorrow for Sunderland vs Palace. Now to check Glasner's press conference for the team news!
I raise you Damien Delaney
Utterly dominant display from Nigeria, who look like the team to beat in Morocco. Restricted Algeria to 0.12 xG & no shots until the 80th minute, and created plenty at the other end
Part Four: Ivory Coast vs Burkina Faso in Marrakech, where the Burkinabe striker is wearing No.2. Le foot c'est fini
Part Three: Nigeria vs Mozambique in Fez, where I'm very much regretting not buying a ticket in the stand with a roof
Part Two: South Africa vs Cameroon in Rabat
Senegal vs Sudan in Tangier. Four AFCON games in four cities in four days starts here
Apropos of nothing, Bournemouth's games have contained the most goals in the Premier League this season (3.37 per 90). But their home games have contained the fewest (1.89 per 90) #makesuthink
Burnley vs Palace. Not a classic
Tottenham's first shot of the game - and what a shot
What a dreadful first half from Tottenham. Approaching this like they're a League Two team going for a giantkilling
Jean-Philippe Mateta would be in the Golden Boot race if he could actually score one-on-ones
Wonder who will win this
A 30-year-old Tomas Soucek doesn't seem the best candidate for a one-man midfield
Think Peter Drury might be a golf fan
Just another 2-3 transfer windows until Man Utd get it right
Hadn't seen Ao Tanaka play much before tonight. Very impressed!
You promised me a signed copy, so get back to it!
Jumped on Route One (which is a fine addition to the football podcast line-up) to talk about Crystal Palace's chances in the Conference League podfollow.com/route-one/ep...
The new ROUTE ONE is here:
Could Palace's demotion be a blessing in disguise? We ask @gregleafootball.bsky.social.
What went wrong for Liverpool? I have an idea...
And Bournemouth just spent BIG on a defender. How are they looking this season? Commentator Paul Scott speaks.

What an innings. Good luck sir!
Club World Cup averaging five goals per game so far, Infantino vindicated
