Some personal news...
Today is my last day at @GoalNews.
It has been an absolute privilege to cover United and City for four seasons.
It's taken me to more than 170 games, from finals in Wembley, Istanbul and Bilbao to unique grounds like Luton and Newport.
Spoken to five United coaches in that period but just one at City, who happens to be the best ever (after Alex Ferguson)
Have loved every minute and never took it for granted.
Now to enjoy the World Cup and see what the future holds.
And if you happen to know of any opportunities for someone with expertise on City and United or Spanish stuff, please get in touch

Hi all,
My time at @goal has unfortunately come to an end following a round of redundancies. Thanks to everyone’s who’s read and shared my work.
Open to new opportunities, DMs don’t always work here but can email me at [email protected]. Much love.

I'm on the lookout for new opportunities. I have over a decade of experience in football media & worn many different hats in that time.
DMs are open. Shares, RTs etc. appreciated.
Was thrilled to be asked to contribute to this year’s SCOUTED50 - essential reading if you want to know more about the next superstars of the game

Ethan Nwaneri 🔴
Archie Gray ⚪
Chris Rigg 🐈⬛
England have some absolute ballers coming through the ranks right now ✨
Still don't think enough gets made about how young Yamal actually is & what he's producing relative to that.
I never saw Pele play, but feels like only he can rival Yamal for achievements as a 17-year-old footballer.
🇦🇷 Lionel Messi, aged 17 years & 8 months, for club and country:
⚽ Goals: 0
🎯 Assists: 0
🇪🇸 Lamine Yamal, aged 17 years & 8 months, for club and country:
⚽ Goals: 23
🎯 Assists: 32
Football has never seen anything like the NXGN 2025 winner! 🤯

🌟 There are five Tottenham players on this year's NXGN list (and it's not as if I've been fudging with the numbers either)...
