Everton wins the merseyside derby first time in 22 years.

Everton today... 
End a 20 game run without a League win v Liverpool, longest run by either side in this fixture, End record run of 20 games without a League win at Liverpool, Equal club’s best unbeaten away run in PL, 8 games
What a team performance from Everton! The stand out was Pickford who made some amazing saves! Everton finally get their first win at Anfield since 1999. 
Whereas, Liverpool have one point less after 25 Premier League games than David Moyes had in his one season at Manchester United. They've had a brilliant three seasons, and there's caveats, but it's an incredible and compelling decline.
Liverpool lost four consecutive Premier League matches for the first time since 2002. An early Richarlison goal and Gylfi Sigurdsson’s second-half penalty ended a wretched run for the Toffees at Liverpool’s home, winning at Anfield for the first time since September 1999.

The result also brings up an embarrassing stat for the champions, who have lost four league home matches for the first time since 1923. It puts Everton level on points with Liverpool and Ancelotti’s men have played a match less.
Sloppy Liverpool created many chances but were thwarted by the likes of Jordan Pickford and Michael Keane.

They’ll also be sweating on the fitness of Jordan Henderson, who hobbled off in the first half holding both his hamstrings and groin on a night where just about everything that could have gone wrong for Liverpool did.

But full marks must go to Everton, who set up perfectly with talkSPORT’s Sam Matterface labelling it a ‘tactical victory’ for Ancelotti. Ancelotti will be full of praise for his players though, particularly Pickford, who made a number of great saves, including a Henderson volley in the first half and a close range effort to deny Mohamed Salah in the second.Pickford’s opposite number Alisson kept out a point-blank header from Seamus Coleman but could do nothing about Richarlison’s opener.

SHOULD MESSI LEAVE BARCELONA??

Greatest player of all time(G.O.A.T) , none other than Lionel Andres Messi . A prolific goal scorer and a creative playmaker who is outstanding,out of this world in every sense of footballing term he is a pure genius. Hell a lot of joy he brings to the football fans all around the globe by his magical run , dribbling and by his smart tricks and one of those little piece of magic out of his hat when he defy all the top class defenders in the world by putting them an awe, He is not a human he is something else. When it comes to one-club players in top-flight football, few names can match the impact of Lionel Messi at Barcelona. He was the teen prodigy, he joined barcelona at the age of 13, who became a global legend, all within the confines of the Catalan club. From honing his skill at La Masia to leading the team, the Argentine’s path to greatness was laid out in Spain and he fulfilled his destiny by becoming the most successful player for the club. And for (nearly) 20 year...

Why did Luis Suarez join Atlético Madrid?

Luis Suarez joining Athleti makes a lot of sense as he has established himself as a legend at Barcelona , and after spending many years in spain, his family is settled there and kids don't even want to go elsewhere ,so playing for athletico will terminate the chances to settle elsewhere and won't have to face problems to adapt elsewhere . But one of the major factor i see is that his friendship with messi, they are neighbours and he might not want to separate himself from Messi can be a major factor . Coming in to Simeone side ,due to less players at his position at Athleti will certainly be good for him as he will have more playing time considering that Morata will be out on loan at Juventus. Simeone is a great admirer of him, will certainly help him play his final years with joy. As a Barca fan i would've liked if he was given a great farewell ,but due to covid it's impossible. Good bye Legend 💯♥️

What is false nine in football ?

False 9 A false 9 is a player who plays between the midfield and the defense lines. The most prominent example is Pep’s Barca squad utilizing Messi as a false 9. In modern-day football, more and more teams are shifting to a false 9 striker rather than a true 9 with a 10 playing behind. It is like a combination of a 9 and a 10. Also, with the introduction of inverted winger who cut in rather than be in the ‘wings’, it seems more like a favorable option. It is always used in a 4–3–3 formation in football. Qualities It is one of THE HARDEST ROLE to play in a team. This player has to pack a bunch of skillsets. The most important skills are- really good dribbling, good vision and passing and, the most important, awareness and creativity. Other skills include flair, speed, and a hella lot stamina. Quite a lot of qualities to ask for, resulting in a lesser number of these players. Advantages and Disadvantages It is a tricky position to play. The most advantage of playing a false 9 is the mar...
