Absurd
Lionel Messi will be available for Inter Miami’s game against New England Revolution on Sunday night despite receiving his fifth yellow card of the MLS season, which would typically trigger a one-game suspension.
Ordinarily, five cautions would keep him out of his next game.
But for years, MLS has had a disciplinary provision that can reduce a player’s yellow-card tally if he has gone a sustained period without one.
It is a rule that usually goes unnoticed, but given Messi’s stature, it has come to light again, and it has proven particularly useful for the player and Inter Miami as the MLS regular season comes to a close.

‘Of all the books I have ever reviewed that purported to offer a serious thesis, this is without question the most deranged.’
Simon Heffer gives zero stars to a ‘preposterous’ rant by a crank conspiracy theorist who for a few days was once PM, @trussliz. telegraph.co.uk/books/non-fi…
Cheers @EE Been a customer for 10 years, pay a chunk every month and hardly get a decent signal (do any of us?). Now I’m about to go to America, and you want £160 EXTRA for me to be able to use my contract. Haha. What a set of jokers.
Context here. Arsenal turned into Arsenal once we’d taken the deserved lead. It’s disappointing, but let’s not lose our heads. #LUFC
Did Keown just say ‘that was a very good Leeds team’ when talking about the 2-3 win before Arsenal went on their invincible run? The same win that kept Leeds in the Prem because we were on for relegation? #LUFC
Why does Ally McCoist assume that anyone he’s talking to are going to make a mistake with their views? #TNTSport
Pickford is a good keeper. Trafford is a good keeper. One of them will be Englands number one. The other will be just behind them. That’s the story. Bored of the ‘debate’ going on.

I disguised £625.72m of owner money as "sponsorship" in Sham Pain Super Nova before the commission caught me. City managed £830.69m. Evidence found: 7/10. Beat that: leedsthat.com/shampain @leedsthat so close!

If you have a spare 3.5 seconds, feel free to read the FA's statement on Manchester City.
Haha. Hooked me in then dropped the ‘Troy Deeney’ bombshell.
Thanks @talkSPORT Haven’t laughed like that in a while.

‘Billions of people…’
4 Reasons why City can't be relegated
1. Billions of people will stop watching the Premier League and switch to the Championship just to watch City play.
2. The Premier League will lose relevance because people will lose interest in it.
3. The Premier League won't be able to compete in Europe properly, because we were the ones giving them PR on the biggest stage.
4. The Premier League will lose billions in revenue because City has one of the strongest fanbases in Europe.
So if you're thinking Man City should be relegated, I'm sorry 😂. The Premier League can't risk all this.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There are not billions of viewers in the first place. Let alone for one club. Estimates around 1.87 billion viewers worldwide.

🚨 🚨💣 𝐌𝐀𝐉𝐎𝐑 𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆: Leicester City are preparing to seek more than £1 Billion in damages after missing out on Champions League football in 2019/20. 🧑⚖️🔵
That was the season Manchester City were first formally pursued over their finances.
Leicester missed out on the Champions League in a campaign when City spent over £400m on players.
The club believes the Premier League should have done more to protect the integrity of the competition.

Raphinha was a RW his whole career at Rennes, Sporting & Leeds and done well there which is why he earned a move to Barça after his stellar performances with Leeds.
Barça randomly spawned the best right winger in the world & Nico Williams decided to ruin his career and sign a 10 year contract at Bilbao so Raphinha gets converted to a LW for the 24/25 and drops 56 G/A in 57 club appearances & was undoubtedly the best LW in the world.
25/26 he was injured a lot, but still got 21 goals and 7 assists in 2200 minutes which is insane from LW.
This season! Barça lost Lewandowski and Ferran Torres whilst also missing out on Jullian Alvarez so had no choice, but to play Raphinha as a 9 & he’s producing some of the most insane numbers you’ll every see every 3 days.
What an incredible footballer he should be an example for any aspiring pro.

James Trafford has made the most saves (20) and has the highest save percentage (87%) in the Premier League so far in 2026/27. #LUFC
