Norman Hunter?

Saw a striker in a French match a few weeks ago get a penalty by kicking the bottom of the defender's foot as he was clearing the ball. I think it was given for a high boot???

Yes, he looked a cracking player when on loan, turning the CH then having a shot from anywhere up to 25 yards, then he signed permanently & nowt!

AGYEI TO SIGN FOR OXFORD UNITED

Burnley's Dan Agyei is close to joining Oxford United on a permanent deal.

The 22-year-old was offered a new contract by Burnley so a compensation fee is likely to be involved.

Have you got one written for Agyei, Tony?

I don't follow him, only check when others have mentioned him. But I assume he gets a lot wrong and so people want him to step down and resign. Somebody posted on here a couple of days ago that he'd been told to step down Frank, so i assumed that meant he was being reassigned, but i haven't got my ...

Just 3 days to go and of course the first season with VAR, who thinks this will be a good thing or be a complete and utter disaster? I like VAR personally, but not the time it takes. I have always said that there should be a time limit for the referee to make a decision, say 2 minutes, and if they ...

Agree but it sounds like they were getting him on loan. The way we get him could be to offer Betis the cash upfront for a permanent deal. I’m sure they would prefer that as would the player. That may be the only way we'd get Camarasa...... offer Betis something that Palace aren't/can't offer, it's ...

I’m not sure left footers are any more one footed than right footers. I don’t see any clear indication of this, nor have I heard players or managers mention it. Could be because there are more right footed players than lefties so they learn to use their left to plug the gaps in the positions that n...

He's a very good ball player so he does create chances. I think a lot of people have seen him today, but he has an eye for goal and good at protecting the defence too.

Absolutely players, who won’t practice on their weaker foot really should be made too by the coach, a nonsense and unprofessional not to do so. It was one of the first things we were told when we joined a local club. Unfortunately some precocious players are indulged by coaches who fear losing them...

Fulham have still got Mitrovic (presumably the "lump up front") but some of their loans have returned home (eg Schurle). They've loaned out some of their big earners (eg Seri and Anguissa) to get them off the wage bill. Babel went on a free too so he's off the wage bill. Kept Mawson, Brya...

At this stage, I think it would be quicker to come up with a list of players that Villa aren't interested in. They've certainly gone for the scatter gun approach, even Nicko couldn't keep up with the players they've been interested in! Here's hoping they do a Fulham, although their manager has a to...
