Although you imagine that today’s footballers are not as obsessed with their newspaper ratings as older generations, you sometimes receive a reminder that they are always read.
There was once when the representative of a Brighton player called on Monday morning to say that he and his client were irritated with the three he had received, for example.
Apparently, the penalty he clumsy had blinded me at all the good times he had made.
If Eddie Nketiah recovered a copy of the mail this week this week, the summer signature of 30 million pounds Sterling from Arsenal will have seen a number one next to his name.
This came after one of the most unhappy performances we have ever seen by a Crystal Palace player.
It was a cameo in which Nketiah managed as many touches of the ball as yellow cards after stopping when Palace led 2-1.

The first yellow came for trying to buy a penalty at Estupinan Pervis, the second for having stuck his stallions towards the head of Jan Paul Van Hecke. Nketiah knew he had spoiled himself, apologizing while he was moving to the tunnel.
The silver lining is that Palace won despite his red, and that shown in Marc Guehi while the hosts finished with nine men. Brighton also rejected Van Hecke in time.
Nketiah has endured a difficult season since the signing and, unfortunately, it was a performance of one in 10.
