Xhaka’s red card turned out to be another false positive for Liverpool.

Been fortunate to report on football since 2000 and now work for @TheAthleticFC covering #CFC in the Premier League. Views my own etc

- What a signing Ruben Dias has been for Man City. Doesn’t seem to get the same kudos as Van Dijk’s transfer for some reason.
- Reece James has agreed terms with #CFC over a new long-term contract which will make him the highest paid defender in the club's history. More here:
- I can think of many #CFC managers the club have employed in the Abramovich era who wouldn’t be able to handle the situation as well as Thomas Tuchel is doing right now.
- #CFC will be playing in their PE kit tonight.
- “I won't give up, I'll be professional.” A professional wouldn’t give an interview like this after missing half the season through injury and illness. Poor from Lukaku. At a time when #CFC are struggling & need their record buy to show leadership, he adds fuel to the flames.
- Klopp questioned #CFC’s (among others) spending last week. So far: In: Lukaku, Bettinelli: £97.5m Out (not including add-ons): Tomori £25m, Abraham £34m, Guehi £18m, Livramento £5m, Moses £4.3m, Giroud £2m, Bate £1.5m, Simeu £1.5m, Peart-Harris £1.3m: Min £92.6m. Simple maths.
- Tammy Abraham has just waved to people in the stands at #CFC as he walked slowly round the pitch. Was that goodbye?
