    just to add hungary joined the EU in 2004 while Howard moved in 2003 so perhaps that explains some.

    He's not, but frankly any league would be a better fit for him than Spain.

    BUT I may be wrong. I mean, in the Segunda, Moore, who is not a technical player and whose ability to step on a ball & make the "pausa" is nil, is having plenty of success with a direct, fast, accurate style. He comes as a surprise to those trying to mark him, who expect a guy focused on ball control rather than getting the ball into the area ASAP.

    Of course, Moore found success as a winger, not a RB, and the Segunda is not La Liga, but who knows. Yedlin could have some success at first surprising those Liga types with his speed and directness.

    But if he moved to say Osasuna or Alaves or Real Betis, wouldnt his wages make him highest paid? That's my point. The clubs that could use him and want him, his low wages by PL standards might still be too much in La Liga.

    I dunno, if they actually wanted him his salary doesn't seem off the mark:

    At this point it's probably MLS or the Championship, the usual suspects. He should stick there until next summer getting the nice money though.

    Completely OT, but you came to mind yesterday. Congrats on Oklahoma.

    Yedlin and reps were supposed to meet with NUFC today or yesterday to discuss future. Seems likely he goes this summer.

    Here are some rumours from sources I don't know.

    Manquillo gifted Watford a penalty with some astoundingly inept defending.

    Newcastle are down 2-1 in the final minutes, Yedlin remains on the bench.

    Hi folks. Please keep your comments focused on Yedlin's club career. I'm deleting off topic stuff, some of which has gotten surprisingly out of hand.

    Yedlin was warming up but never got in. Twiter fans split between him being the worst player in the history of footie and one of the guys they should have brought in to attempt to win the thing...

    Lost 2-1. Takeover seems likely. There's something about a ManU sponsorship deal that is affecting it, it seems.

    Lol I just figured out what you were referencing. You got the wrong McGirt buddy.

    McGirt v Oklahoma. Supreme Court case decided this week. Or in other news, the first time since 1833 that the US Federal Govt actually held themselves to a treaty made with a Native American tribe.

    The elephant in the room is that subjected to their own laws, none of the countries in the Americas is entirely legal since tribes only ceded formally a limited amount of lands to the colonizers.

    That's an issue unlikely to explode until later in the century though.

    (that was my original "joke" ... [I was "wait wutting" that our friendly AZ posters was not *actually* the McGirt in the lawsuit...] and when I have to explain my banter like this, I really have reached boomer humor...)

    What for? There'll be nobody there except the coaching staff and his team mates, and he can say goodbye to them at the training ground.

    Annnd just when you thought things couldn't get more shambolic, the Saudis have torpedoed their own takeover bid by making the ban on all BeIN channels from Saudi Arabia permanent. They've done that just when it looked like they were going to get approval. Mind-boggling

    the Saudi Arabian government permanently barred the Premier League’s Qatar-based Middle East broadcast partner from operating in the kingdom. BeIN’s £500m deal with the Premier League runs until 2022 and there is now no legal way for anyone in Saudi Arabia to watch England’s top tier till then.

    Looks like Yedlin is getting another start.
