Your Premier League club's best goal (BBC Sport)

BBC Sport's Premier League fan community unearth the best goal they have seen their team score.

I remember the feeling in the crowd of stunned amazement and euphoria - it was simply incredible. But it is a goal that, despite the fact I was born in the year it was scored, can be visualised so clearly. Personally, the best goal I've seen would have to be Dele Alli's away at Crystal Palace in 2016. no goalkeeper was saving that free-kick in front of the away fans. This is the goal most remembered for City racking up 44 passes before it hit the back of the net. It's a left-field choice, but the best team goal I've seen Liverpool score live came against Hoffenheim in the second leg of their 2017 Champions League qualifier at Anfield. When he took that shot and slotted it past Mignolet into the goal sending him flying, the whole of the King Power was bouncing! I was 11 years old at the time, and I saw Jermaine Beckford as a modern-day super hero. It can only be Steve Sidwell's epic strike from around the halfway line against Bristol City, before immediately running to the touchline to hold aloft Anthony Knockaert's number 11 shirt in celebration. A corner was half-cleared from the visitors and Ritchie controlled the ball off his chest, smashing a left-footed volley past goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon. Stan Collymore against Atletico Madrid in the Uefa Cup, March 1998. The best goal I have seen my team score would have to be from Thierry Henry.

Thankfully there isn’t much chance of that because he’s up against United manager Erik Ten Hag and Fulham’s Marco Silva, both of whom went undefeated in February. Now, Conte is a pretty magnanimous guy and I’m sure if he won the award he’d immediately give it to Stellini. There are a bunch of goals to choose from and Spurs wingback Emerson Royal was nominated for [February’s EA Sports Premier League Player of the Month](https://www.premierleague.com/news/3087415) award, and Antonio Conte (lol) was nominated for [Manager of the Month](https://www.premierleague.com/news/3087416). We’ll get to Conte, but first — whom amongst us would’ve thought that Emerson Royal would have gone from a player getting ironic cheers when being subbed off to one with the potential to receive a player of the month award? Meanwhile, Oliver Skipp’s first Premier League goal against Chelsea was nominated for Goal of the Month.

Premier League CEO calls for 'tweak' to FA's visa system for player ... (The Guardian)

Richard Masters said visas contributed to the league's record spend and the system was designed to increase England-qualified players.

What the Premier League needs is more Brightons and Brentfords who are getting up there, providing variety and staying up.” I am not here to defend them but you have to judge these things over a period of time.” Chelsea’s outlay of more than £300m on players in January doubled the previous record and took their spending to more than £600m under their American owners. Within our rules it’s a test over a 12-month period, so the question is whether they are going to sell some of their existing players in the next window. It’s partially to do with the GBE system.” “While we’re totally committed to developing young, homegrown players and we want Gareth Southgate to be successful, when you have a limited supply of players you can go for and you’ve got lots of demand, then it’s slightly inflationary.

The club has moved from the Premier League's relegation zone 17 months ago to contending for a place in the Champions League this season. PIF is chaired by Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman, and six of the other eight board members listed on its website are government ministers. In some games, the team has worn a white and green jersey like the Saudi national team. "They are a sovereign instrumentality of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia,” the filing said, adding the discovery order was “an extraordinary infringement on the sovereignty of a foreign state.” “The Premier League will surely need to re-examine the assurances made about the non-involvement of the Saudi authorities in the Newcastle deal,” Amnesty economic affairs director Peter Frankental said in a statement. “It was always stretching credulity to breaking point to imagine that the Saudi state wasn’t directing the buyout,” Frankental said, adding the deal had “the ultimate aim of using the club as a component in its wider sportswashing efforts.”

In this piece, we have provided a breakdown of the costs their owners have incurred for their Premier League clubs over the past ten years.

Boehly has shown a preference for holding onto some of the most famous sports properties in the world. government for his strong ties to Vladimir Putin, has been replaced by a group led by Todd Boehly, the founder and CEO of Eldridge Industries. The London-based team signed a number of well-known players at this time, including Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang (€63.75m), Nicolas Pepe (€80.00m), etc. Toffees have a strong financial foundation but have not used the funds smartly. Leicester City’s owners wrote off £194 million that they had lent the football team over the previous ten years. They are unable to match many other teams’ transfer expenditures or pay structures, but they have nonetheless developed very effective models, as seen by their standings in the standings and player sales records. Owner Fosun demonstrated his continued support for the team by effectively forgiving £126 million in loans. 80% of the club is owned by the consortium. In addition, each club has a number of wealthy owners who provide financial support throughout the transfer period to help the team get stronger. (The figures mentioned in this article are based on research by The unpopular Glazer family, who are receiving more and more criticism from both fans and commentators.

Premier League clubs spending more due to Brexit, says CEO (ESPN)

The new visa system put in place after Brexit is a factor in Premier League clubs spending record sums on transfers, said CEO Richard Masters.

"Some of this has nothing to do with the GBE system. "Within our rules it's a test over a 12-month period, so the question is whether they are going to sell some of their existing players in the next window." [Enzo Fernandez](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/285450/Enzo-Fernández) -- was more than the combined totals of all clubs in the [Bundesliga](/soccer/league/_/name/GER.1), [LaLiga](/soccer/league/_/name/ESP.1), [Serie A](/soccer/league/_/name/ITA.1) and [Ligue 1](/soccer/league/_/name/FRA.1)1. "They might have bought, but they would probably argue they have a different transfer policy to the previous regime with younger players, longer contracts and lower wages. "Ultimately we have generated an earned advantage over our European investors and a lot of that earned advantage goes to those European investors in transfer fees for players that we can no longer buy at a younger age," Masters added. English clubs cannot sign Europe-based players under the age of 18, however, and Masters said at the Financial Times Business of Football Summit in London that the immigration system "needs a bit of a tweak."
