Talking of Semenyo, so lovely of the BBC to reveal to the scum 6 that he has a 65 mil quid release clause that can be activated in January. W*****s!
Hardly an exclusive.

It isn't, but what it does hint at is the propensity of the BBC and other media to see playing for the top 5 + Spurs as the be all and end all, and the sort of thing that excites football fans.

Not really, anyone that would be interested will have alraedy spoken to his agent and know exactly what the clause is so nothing is really being given away by anyone making it public.

That in general, is annoying.

But in this case (and without diving into the horrors of Twitter to find out) I bet that the BBC haven't "revealed" anything . Without much actual football for their bbc.co.uk content slaves to write about in an international week, they've just repeated something that someone else revealed somewhere else about three days ago.

A young centre forward, well scouted, that can actually run, head, score and generally be a useful striker please.

We're not getting anywhere near £40m for Watkins.

West Ham was the club i was thinking of, but assuming you’re right, there’s even less justification for shifting him this January.

There's a lad at Udinese that's doing ok...

There's a guy works down the chipshop, swears he's Elvis.
Saw a Kirsty MacColl tribute night in Brighton last Friday. No sign of Keinan nor Nicólo sadly.
