What tragic news, I went all numb when I found out. Thanks for all the memories, Diogo. My thoughts are with the family ❤️

I can not recommend this book highly enough, now available in English. A must-read if you want to understand the environmental impacts from salmon farming in open net pens, and how capital and power is influencing politics and research on aquaculture.

Still one of the best goals of all time - scored by a genius.
Zlatan for Ajax. 🥵 This goal still leaves us speechless 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

This is the “dangerous” man the media has been warning you about. Maybe, just maybe, if mainstream media could embody the same epistemic humility, open-mindedness and grace, they would be just as trusted and their viewership ratings wouldn’t be a fraction of Joe’s.

Nobody has stronger opinions about Joe Rogan than people who have never listened to Joe Rogan.

Having a sense of déjà vu here... In December, 23 years ago, we played away at Spurs, and a skinny but extremely talented teenager made his first PL start for Liverpool in the midfield. #LFC #TOTLIV

I dag skriver blant annet @GeorgeMonbiot, @carlsafina, @shabanarehman, Bjørn Tomren, Henriette Steenstrup, Gert Nygårdshaug og @vedgy under på et opprop for å boikotte norsk oppdrettslaks. Les det, spre det og bytt ut julas gravlaks med noe annet. opstrms.com/artsutryddelse-p…

I’m very sadenned by the news of Gerard Houllier’s passing. I will forever be grateful to him for the faith he showed in me and the opportunities I was given. My thoughts go out to his family and friends.

Finishing off this season, whenever it's safe to do so, is much more important than starting next season on time.

This is absolutely bang on. Gerard Houllier's time as Liverpool manager, what he did in reshaping the club on and off the field, can sometimes be criminally overlooked and under-rated. He also won a few trophies while he was at it.

What a privilege for a young player to undergo some of the most defining time of your professional career and personal development under the guidance and leadership of a manager like Klopp! #LFC #YNWA

"They have won it." "No we haven't." "They think they have won it." "No we don't." "They're planning the parade." "No we're not." "It's over." "Look, just bloody sod off with your reverse psychology and worry about yourself. You're kidding NO-ONE"  x 20 more PL games.

I wonder what he must be thinking now…. But more importantly: congratulations @LFC, Champions of the World! #LFC #YNWA
The Little Magician has given us some fantastic times and I thank him and wish him luck. But his urgency to leave is nevertheless hurtful. Would’ve hoped that the chance to lift the FA Cup, let alone the CL trophy, in the red shirt would mean more to him.

Frode Kippe @Kipdaddy78 retires after this season, at nearly 42 years of age. Well done on a fantastic career, mate. Wish I had some of the robustness that you’re made of!
