It's Friday, it's Roj, and we've made it to the end of another week.

We've huge relief in my case, as many of you know from our Twitter feed, my puppy, Martin Scorsese, was neutered yesterday, a day.

I've long known was coming, but one, I'll be honest, has filled me with dread on so many levels, and it's a joy to report.

The mart is currently at my feet, shunting a bowl of dog feed around with his dog-cowned head, as I part a sign that he's returning to health, and no doubt will soon be back at full garbage, hound settings please God.

But I want to thank so many of you for your lovely words yesterday, which made a ton to me. It was quite a saga, quite a 24 hours, not least because,

and I didn't really think this one through, I'll be honest, when we named him, the day was filled with a ton of official communications from my vets, who were like send emails in bold, all caps saying,

''Mitran Scorsese, procedure is tomorrow at 8am, make sure he doesn't eat or drink after midnight, and when I read that Martin Scorsese is not well, say one of those Twitter things where you hear something terrible, I always momentarily quake, and fear that the world is in danger of losing another great one.

Not in our case, don't worry, relax, there can be a sequel to the Irishman still to come, and luckily for Marty, and his conehead, there's a lot of football for us to save for this week, and we will revel in much of it here, the return of the Champions League,

and please don't let this be true, what could be one of Everton's last home games as a Premier League outfit for some time, or so, we've only got ourselves a club World Cup final. What? Yes!

Saturday morning, live from Abu Dhabi, I think it's on FS2, that weird phantom tournament, it's more a placeholder right now, in the ongoing dirty war between FIFA and UEFA Chelsea,

face palmeiras, Chelsea having fended off Al Hilal, 1-0, yes, Romelu Lukaku did Scorsese first goal in a month, but if you actually watch the game, there's another 90 minutes in which player and attacking system still seemed utterly mismatched, and two-hulless Chelsea's out with COVID,

have now struggled to overcome League 1's Plymouth Argyle, and a deeply mediocre Al Hilal in consecutive games. South American Champions palmeiras now await that South Paolo team with Italian roots, who seek to become the first winners from the continent since 2012, who's hyped?

Let's attack the weekend, with the energy Wayne Rudy told us he attacked John Terry back in 2006.

I always wore the old plastic studs with the metal tip, and for that game I changed them to Big Long Metal and the Macman lent you for that, because I wanted to tie an air to them, tying into someone.

Did you? So were you getting a camera on there?

Okay, on that note, you were just playing with that angle, were you? Yeah, I had no time. I knew the day we were going to win that game, you could feel the better team there's the time, so I changed my studs, thinking the studs were legal,

thinking if there's a challenge there, I knew I'd want to go in for a properly, did actually John Terry left the stadium on crutches, I left the whole image foot here, and then I signed my share, I'd have to go into him, and that's when he stood back.

God bless you Wade, let's do this, sting me up producer Jonah.
