Player Reinvention

The North London Derby looms and will be particularly interesting as diving has now officially been declared fine, Ederson eases Man City’s injury crisis by reinventing himself as a midfielder and David Moyes gets a cheerleader in the form of fun-time Patrice Evra. We also shine a light on the maudlin nature of Antonio Conte’s current work, discover that fruit may work as an injury treatment and peak behind the curtain to meet playground bully Marcus Speller.
