Saturday football open thread

Hi, Carty Freebirds! It’s Saturday, three days before Christmas. Is your shopping done?

This will be short and sweet — we have a full slate of Premier League matches to watch, because it’s still the weekend and what else are you going to do except watch football? Shop? HAH, fat chance.

The match thread rules remain the same.
