Lee Dixon could commentate on a bank robbery, a UFO landing and a T-Rex riding a unicycle at the same time and still sound like he's describing a rainy Tuesday afternoon trip to pick up his dog’s ashes.
BREAKING: Burnley have confirmed midfielder Florentino Luis has joined the club from Benfica on a permanent basis.
The relegated club say the 26-year-old had an obligation to buy in his loan deal which was triggered last season 🚨

Bombshell: The #Browns are finalizing a trade of Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett to the #Rams in a shocker, sources tell me, @TomPelissero & @AdamSchefter.
Cleveland would send Garrett to LA in exchange for star edge Jared Verse, a first-rounder, and more.
The interviews both last week and yesterday sum David Moyes up. He’s done well to steady the ship, but let’s be honest the ship was only sinking because Dyche had thrown in the towel. We finish the season behind Brentford, Bournemouth, Sunderland and Fulham only 5 points above Forest. In terms of ability, no one will convince me that some of our players are indeed footballers. But most of the players are good enough to compete and take us above those teams. In terms of a culture, things need change. The business is (now) thriving, the stadium is world class. This season I’ve been to more games than I have for a long time. Every home game and most away, missing just a handful. I won’t have it that we’re not ready yet and that we should stay in our lane. With that attitude and never believing in investing in younger players, we never will be. And that’s Moyes all over. It was like this first time around - set up not to lose, use your stalwarts - the same now. The club is in a much healthier place now than it was back then. We don’t need safe and we don’t need stability; we need progress, we need creativity and we need innovation. We’ve seen none of that. It’ll be another 30 years before silverware if we stick with this philosophy. Little old Everton perpetually underperforming, staying in lane and suffering imposter syndrome when the ‘big teams’ turn up to play us….. here’s the thing, there’s not a single team I’ve seen us play this season who we couldn’t have beaten. Not one. The business model is sound but the football mentality is rotten - and that needs to change.
Roma securing champions league while Everton are ‘knowing our place’ and letting the big boys walk all over us, because that’s the philosophy that’s now acceptable.
NSNO…. I don’t think so.
Time for a real change.
Have a nice summer all, enjoy the World Cup 👍💙
Sunderland secured (7th) Europa league with 54 points.
With 7 games to play Everton had 46 points. 3 wins from 7 games is all we needed. And they didn’t win a single one.
Just can’t defend that.
🚨REPORT: The BBC plans to skip broadcasting the World Cup final halftime show
The network is expected to continue with its usual blueprint of pundits analyzing the first half
0 wins out of 6 when "chasing Europe".
Out of both cups early.
Two Derby defeats to a poor Liverpool side.
And a one point increase on the past two seasons.
Tell me again about the incredible job the manager is doing...
Great servant and more importantly a great fella. He deserved more than an empty stadium but I wasn’t hanging around to applaud them after today’s display. Quite a fitting end for his Everton career unfortunately.
