Apparently Henderson has a muscle problem and Wijnaldum has a sore knee. So say the Guardian anyway.

Unlocking and completing the master levels of Super Monkey Ball felt like mastery until I saw what the likes of @hellsbells were capable of. Getting all of the achievements on the original Geometry Wars on the 360 (including 1 million points without dying) felt the same until I looked at the leaderboards. It’s all relative I suppose.

I enjoyed both Sneaky Pete and The Man In The High Castle.

I remember being blown away by Exile on the BBC when my Dad first showed it to me. It was unlike anything I’d played before, particularly the physics. If there was a game that squeezed more out of the BBC, I can’t think of it.

Slightly mixed feelings about the goal after Adam's dive won the free kick. Mind you, Gerrard wouldn't have scored if Giggs hadn't pussied out of the wall.

I felt we lacked width at times and, with Stoke being well organised and getting men back in numbers, things got congested in and around their box. On those ocassions we could have done with pulling them side-to-side more to free up space in the middle. I noticed that Downing seemed to pop up on the right quite frequently which possibly didn't help. That said, we still created a number of chances and on another day could have scored two or three.

Surely he won't leave in this transfer window? The club have been pretty emphatic in rejecting his request and they'll look pretty stupid if they do a u-turn within the next three days.

Rejection of Torres's request is up on the official site now: http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/latest-news/lfc-reject-torres-transfer-request It'll be very interesting to see how he reacts. Surely he'll need to keep trying to play at his best in order to secure a move in the summer?

Apparently the deal's now back on again: http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/latest-news/babel-set-for-hoffenheim

Anyone know what Gillett's doing in all of this? All the reports that I've read have solely mentioned Hicks.

We're saved! Anyone who smokes cigars this big can want nothing but the best for our club:

Just bought this and spent 20 mins or so with it. Initial impressions are good, but I'd echo a few of the comments above. Separating the smaller orbs is too fiddly. A double tap as suggested above might work nicely, although the game would have to be smart in figuring out where to put the newly separated orb. Tap to select the orb, and tap where to put the newly separated one? Means there's not much pinching going on anymore though... The other thing that felt a little clunky is the scrolling. Great to hear that you're looking at it, in my opinion you definitely have to move too far to the edge of the screen before it scrolls. Is the speed at which it currently scrolls controlled by how near to the edge of the screen you've moved the orb? I think that might help the experience.

Agreed. I never did manage Master 3 without chucking myself off the top and hoping I fluked it through the goal. Even that took a stupid number of attempts.

For some, as yet unexplained reason, he can't turn into smoke anymore. At least that's what was said by the woman who collected Jacob's ashes (sorry, forgotten her name).

How on earth did he get down the other end so quickly?
