Haven't been in here for a while, a few points...
1) Are people still calling Kane a one-season wonder?
He's clearly an excellent player.
2) Kelvin MacKenzie seems like a banana split of the highest order, but anybody crying racism about his Ross Barkley comments are misguided. Presumably anybody who's ever said that Bale looks like a monkey have thoroughly researched his family history to make sure he has no black ancestors, otherwise they're open to the same criticism.
3) I'm sure I read a stat yesterday saying that you could take away all of Lukaku's goals this season and Everton would still be in the same league position. Pretty interesting.
4) This proposed retrospective ban on diving is tackling the right problem, but in the wrong way. It would still mean that teams benefit from cheating through penalties, opposition players being sent off, etc, which is the main goal. Delaying the punishment until after the event is no good. If you dive against one of the top teams, get a penalty, and that gives you a win, knowing you might face a two-game ban against two relegation-threatened teams, are you going to take the risk? Probably, and it would probably be seen as being worth it. Better to have a video-referee to address all difficult decisions and provide live feedback/consequences.
