According to reports, Harvey Barnes of Newcastle United is thinking about supporting Scotland rather than England at the international level. The Times reports that the 25-year-old, who is entitled to represent Scotland through his grandparents, is now open to the idea of being called up to Steve Clarke’s team despite previously rejecting Scottish offers. Barnes has represented England at every level, from U-18 to senior, but his only senior debut came in a friendly match as a substitute against Wales in October 2020, so a move to Scotland is still an option. His chances of being called up to the…

Since acquiring Oleksandr Zinchenko from Man City in the summer of 2022, Arsenal has advanced significantly, and they can thank a “secret agent” for helping them do so.

Since joining the Gunners last summer for £32 million, the Ukrainian has been a revelation. Zinchenko won four Premier League championships with City, but he bravely chose to join Arteta’s project in order to have a bigger impact. It’s safe to say that the decision has subsequently paid off, as Zinchenko…

The R’s might try to bring in Lyle Taylor while he’s still available if they really need to address their forward area. Queens Park Rangers strengthened a number of positions during the summer transfer window, with player sales allowing them to bring others in. Gareth Ainsworth always seemed to need the summer to make his mark on the R’s team since the group from previous season needed to be changed. Although they may have been at the top of the Championship early in the season, their inability to rally until the very end of the campaign was a major concern…
