Lucas Piazon’s loan spell at Vitesse Arnhem has got off to an absolute flyer. And he continued his outstanding form with two more goals in yesterday’s victory over Heerenveen.

Wilfried Zaha is set to be dropped from the England Under-21 setup following his on-pitch scuffle with West Ham’s Ravel Morrison.

[…]

Video: QPR boss Harry Redknapp gets hit in the head by a ball thrown by Millwall fan

Posted: 20 Oct 2013 12:54 AM PDT

It’s safe to say that Harry Redknapp was not best pleased to be hit in the head by a ball during QPR’s draw against Millwall yesterday. The incident, which came seconds before the Lions’ late equaliser, saw Redknapp get pretty irate and hurl obscenities at the fan involved. Of course, it should come as no […]
