JWP to Burnley (says the Sun )

JWP joins Burnley on loan until end of the season. He could be a perfect fit for them, he will run all day and if ever there was a side that values a set piece delivery, it’s them. Might be too little too late though, as they do look pretty much doomed already.

Alejandro Rodriguez gets his first senior goal for Lyon in the Europa League, aged 17. 

Think he'll be a better player than Ballard over the longer term.

Not for us, of course. Don't be silly.

God they are dull enough under Parker let alone with a crab who just recycles the ball lol.The best he did for me was when Nathan played him forward and he scored a couple, then for some reason he was pushed back again

Not quite a "defector" yet; BBD gets a goal and an assist as Derby win 5-0 away at Bristol City
