Givemesport is a waste of space. Not that being a journalist is necessarily any recommendation, you only need to look at Custis to see that, but on that website basically anyone with an axe to grind can write an article.
It's quite a clever business model. I'm one of a small group who do the writing for one of the bigger cricket blogs, and they kept emailing us asking us to write for Givemesport. For free. We do our blog for the love of it and none of us have the slightest interest in monetising it, or being journalists (we all have good careers), but their proposal was that instead we write for them for free so they can make money. Let's just say that was more than a bit cheeky, and since we get more hits on that sport than they do, highly amusing.
Generally though, they rely on people who want to make a career out of it, and see that as a way of getting exposure. It's rather exploitative, but for a young writer, not the worst way of getting noticed.

Yep.I doubt Phil Foden is going to make any career decisions based on what Sky Sports News say.
I get the feeling it's a quiet news day and they want fillers. They won't debate how shit the England cricket team as it gives a rival free advertising.

Think Brewster and Sancho have made a couple of sub appearances apiece. Sessegnon has been getting games in the lower leagues. 17 year olds aren't as good as their counterparts in their mid 20s, fact of life.How much game time have the rest of that U17 WC team got out of interest?
Only an issue for Foden though apparently, the one playing the most and at the highest levelThink Brewster and Sancho have made a couple of sub appearances apiece.

Of Preston North End: "They only played 22 games, and two of those were against something called Aston Villa!" Fnah.
