Do players really get private planes for such short distances at this level?

Players are certainly no strangers to short haul flights...

BBC Sport has now looked into the issue and their research shows that 81 individual flights were taken by Premier League sides during a period which had 100 matches. The period between January 19 and March 19 saw 59 flights taken for Premier league fixtures, as well as 16 for FA Cup games and six for Carabao Cup matches.

The flights ranged from 27 minutes to 77 minutes and included so-called ‘positioning’ flights, whereby often empty charter planes flew to airports in order to pick up teams.

Be interesting to see what he could do with a couple of quality wingers putting the ball in the right spot.

Yep we could watch him miscontrol it , have him bumped and losing it or head it over the bar - I don’t think airborne crosses are Liams style it’s to 60/40 for the defence - Delaps low cross for Tufans goal seems to be what he wants . The Prem teams could put crosses in all game but they almost never do now - and the Champ teams are following . suit
I like his effort and his first time efforts but he doesn’t retain a ball well enough for LR Delap is way ahead BUT will Delap get any goals serving others and nobody serving him?
