One more wonder save from Pickford in the Park End to keep the clean sheet intact. It has become Pickford End these past few seasons. Final five. One last cry of Grand Old team. Players flirting with another two-goal collapse even at this stage, obviously #EFC

Fair play to Moyes for ending the era with two out-and-out centre forwards up front. About 20 years since I can think of a time it worked at Everton, predating even his first spell #EFC

More than a few Southampton fans have stayed on, long after the final whistle to see how this cathedral of English football is given its fitting farewell, perhaps one or (quite a few) with a blue persuasion. Operation Farewell Goodison the only way to kickstart the party #EFC

David Moyes: “Goodison Park will always be remembered for one thing, the people. We need you all the way to help us (next season). Over the years maybe you have been disappointed, now the job is to try and make you happy.” #EFC

No sleep, no trains, but no chance I’d give up on that seat. Tales in the cab all the way to Goodison with Evertonians added to a special day as it became clear we’d make kick off. Honoured to be among the lucky ones to have been inside for the farewell. Goodbye, old friend #EFC

First and last. Wimbledon (0-0), 29 April 1995. Long-range shot from Joseph Parkinson all I remember. And the noise. Preserved for eternity by ToffeeWeb toffeeweb.com/season/94-95/r… #EFC

Shout out to whoever it was in the Main Stand near the press box who just let Z Cars play out on his phone on repeat for the final minutes of the game on Sunday. Clearly felt it was the right thing not to answer it! #EFC

Arnautovic watching from the bench thinking Inzaghi hasn’t seen the stat about that Stoke City 2017/18 team and Champions League finals.

The one true superstar at PSG is Luis Enrique. Oozes class. Never perturbed by defeat at Arsenal early in the season. Made his point then by dropping Dembele and could afford to with the new format. Has complete control and respect now of Europe’s champions… and never forgets.

The Premier League is finished. Watch Premiership Years all summer to remember what it once was. Ange was for the real ones. The pre-Baller Leaguers. He was the only character we had left. The best in class now all play abroad. The best grounds have all shut down. It’s done.

From the very first game, you knew you were witnessing something extraordinary. Sinner and Alcaraz are not only providing a modern day classic for tennis, but heralding the dawn of a rivalry for all of sport #FrenchOpen

Nice to see Ndiaye and Gueye winning another game at the City Ground. Gueye dominated the midfield from a more advanced pressing position. Has turned into a fairly shambolic start from Tuchel, who at least should now know who he cannot count on #ENGSEN

The simple things feel off with Tuchel that Southgate understood. Even the time it took to speak to ITV when the level of detail under Southgate would have included knowledge the News is at 10.05pm. Be the first to front up and don’t leave it to chance that schedulers make space.
