"That Jonjo Shelvey panel... it's like jazz, it's not about the picture he drew it's about the picture he didn't draw but that your brain forces you to see nonetheless. That's my Tuesday ruined."

That was great. All the stuff already highlighted plus a jab at the failed takeover.

Last 15 mins of Tenet? The only 15 mins worth watching is the mind-bending car chase down Laagna Tee in Tallinn......and in general yeah Squires nails this entire CL topic with perfect sarcasm

One of the wildest, most abstract ones to date. Squires lockdown sanity under a microscope! Top stuff as ever, the Simpsons/Eric Dier reference excellent, as was 'Big Farmer.'

"Scotty Parker's nan jacket"

"Carousel of Caution"

Was half expecting a Maguire/Albanians related joke in there somewhere.

A gentle dig at some of the players taking part in the protest would have been good for him to do. Such as Gundogan taking part while playing for City.

It's a play on the "Come with me if you want to live" phrase that's said in the Terminator films, but mixed in with England's typical Euro/World Cup performances where they get knocked out by the first decent team they face.

Aaron Wan Bissaka is first on the list, presumably because he's alphabetically first by his first name. Then the next on the list is Jayden Bogle.
