As Chelsea, Tottenham, Man City and Arsenal line up in the FA Cup semi-finals, it seems the much complained about rotation of squad players used in many Cup games, may be off the mark.
Unusual for all 4 semi-finalists to come from the top 5 EPL teams ?
Torquay born Kieffer Moore was sitting on the bench at Forest Green Rovers in the National League and then joined Torquay on loan, scoring 5 goals in 4 games before returning to the Forest Green bench. Torquay tried to sign him but Championship Ipswich Town snapped him up for a £10,000 fee and wages that were EIGHT times what Torquay could offer. He sits on the Ipswich bench now.
In a different world - an £89,000,000 transfer fee paid for Paul Pogba, £100,000 a week being shunned by Romelu Lukaku at Everton and £500,000 a week being offered to Zlatan Ibrahamovic by L.A.Galaxy !
Well done Leicester City for making the Champions League quarter finals - can they surprise the football world again ?
Love football !
