    Aaron Lennon not in a good place I'm hearing. Hoping he gets the help he needs:

    Aaron Lennon health fears as Everton and England winger is detained under Mental Health Act
    • Aaron Lennon has been detained by Police under the Mental Health Act
    • Lennon has made 13 appearances for Everton in all competitions this season
    • The winger hasn't played since the 0-0 draw on Feb 11 against Middlesbrough
    • He joined Everton from Tottenham on a permanent deal in 2015 after a loan spell

    Manchester City banned from signing academy players

    May 5, 2017, 10.29 PM IST
    LONDON: Manchester City have been hit with a ban on signing youth academy players for two years after breaching Premier League regulations.

    City were found to have approached the families of two promising young players who were registered with other clubs in a bid to lure them to Eastlands.

    The Premier League club will be unable to sign academy players in the 10-18 age range who have been registered with another top-flight or Football League team in the preceding 18 months.

    The second year of the ban, due to begin on June 30, 2018, will be suspended for three years, while City have also been fined £300,000 ($388,000, 353,000 euros).

    "Following an investigation, the Premier League found evidence that the club's conduct prior to applying to register the players contravened League rules," a Premier League statement said on Friday.

    "This included evidence of contact between the club and members of each Academy player's family while those Academy Players were still registered with their previous clubs."

    In April, the Premier League probed three City signings, including an 11-year-old Everton midfielder and a 15-year-old from Wolves.

    City will not be permitted to retain the players whose moves triggered the ban.



    "In each case, the Academy player was conditionally registered with Manchester City while the Premier League's investigation was ongoing," the statement read.




    "As a result of the club's breaches, the players' registrations will be terminated on a specified date, with no compensation rights retained by the club, and the club will not be permitted to re-register them as Academy players.




    "In addition, Manchester City has offered to pay compensation to each player's previous club, and maintain educational provision for each player until the completion of his GCSEs."




    City's punishment comes after Liverpool were also hit with a ban on signing academy players for two years for a similar breach.

    City and Liverpool now done, won't be surprised to see a few more punished for it.

    The premier league has been awful this season, in fact it's been awful ever since the 13/14 season. I just can't believe Spurs are the second best team when they've got very few actual quality players with real technical ability.

    That's the title race over then. Don't think Spurs would have caught Chelsea anyway though.
