    Where does Norman fit?

    I think he fits in where I would've expected to be honest - a long-term project who will get minutes here or there, will benefit from training with better players, and may well go out and get some loan time next season.

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    I do have to wonder what it is that Starmer's done to persuade Trump to praise him in public multiple times now. Without knowing what it is, I'm genuinely impressed!
