I was deeply insecure and paranoid about what teammates/coaches thought. Therapy helped to put football into perspective & encouraged my journalism. Others have taken different paths since being released from an academy, but experienced similar struggles:.

People boo because Jordan Henderson chose money over principles and in doing that, ended his career at the top level. So the fact he still gets picked for England is jarring. From a purely footballing perspective, I can think of certain other midfielders who deserve their chance.

Apparently, Jhon Duran does this type of thing in training a lot. He can be as good as he wants to be. All three of his goals this season were winning goals from the bench. No player has scored more winners as a substitute in a single Premier League campaign. #AVFC.

A Sheffield United supporter in front of me, who was with what looked to be his partner, stood up and headed for the turnstiles as soon as Bailey scored #AVFC's third. Didn't say a word to his partner, just got up and left.

Ten games unbeaten in London (winning seven of those) and a double against Arsenal this season. Emery doesn’t let excuses filter into the dressing room and even with the fixtures/injuries, this was the result. A word for his talent ID too - Morgan Rogers is a gem. #AVFC.

I’m sorry, but VAR is just trying to find an offside there.

Ben Pearson has just urged #pnefc to let Steve Cook have the ball "as he's shit". #AFCB getting forced to always play out to the left, with Preston allowing Cook, Rico and Riquelme to have the ball. They can't get out at the moment.

Emery has full autonomy at #AVFC. Recruitment often entirely centres around who and what he wants. And as DoF Damian Vidagany told me last year, what Emery wants, Villa try to facilitate. He thinks Rashford can be one of the most dangerous attackers in world football & wants him.
