Watching our conduct in the transfer window

In a recent book I wrote with Jonny Reid called Spiritual Game Plan, we included a chapter about godly conduct as a Christian fan.

We draw attention to James 3:9-10, which says: "With the tongue, we praise our Lord and Father, and with it, we curse human beings, who have been made in God's likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be."

Those verses came to mind when I read that Trent Alexander-Arnold was leaving Liverpool for Real Madrid after 20 years at the football club.
