Hi JR bor, it takes an outsider to view in perspective the vagaries of the Premier League. A brilliant review by an unknown American who clearly knows the English football scene. Have been watching a clip of a soccer game played in America. A throw in. What was so special about a thow in ? The player taking the throw stands about six feet from the line, moving forward at pace he completes a somersault (still with the ball in his hands) and delivers the ball complying with football rules. Brilliant.
