Thanks Simon. Scanning is really important. But it’s a bit like telling drivers to keep looking around. It should be second nature. And it’s been around for ages. Gary Neville used to do eye exercises prematch to prepare his eyes. Enjoy the week.

Quality Monday round up as usual Henry. De Bruyne has been a modern day great. What a player. The best forward passer the Premier League has seen. Genius. Decent left foot as you say. But the game has just got to quick for him now and his body can’t cope. Injuries have taken their toll suddenly and yesterday’s game against Man Utd showed this. He was a shadow of himself and really can’t get about the pitch now. Right decision to leave and the US seems the most likely destination. But what a very humble genius. A winner.

Bradford get great support and no other league at the that level int he world gets the crowds what we get in England. We do love supporting our teams. Just like those Southampton fans who have watched some rubbish this season. What was the point in replacing Martin. Who got them up. Juror has made them worse.

A well made point on Esteve at Burnley. Been very impressive at the back for Burnley. Surprised he doesn’t get more attention but I have seen him play a bit and like the look of him.

Henderson is playing well but I don’t think he is a top keeper and not a Man Und number 1. Had his chance and didn’t take it. Good shot stopper but is quite small. Looks small in goal sometimes. But a good goalkeeper nonetheless the less who seems to have found his club at Palace.

Hate the new modern day terms. Drives older players mad. It’s the language of the modern day pundit that lots of woman reporters and pundits like to use to sound extra tactically aware. Graeme Souness laughs at this terminology now.

Nice work.
