Two players in the Aston Villa team clashed in the game against West Ham United on Monday night. Anwar El Ghazi tried to headbutt his teammate Tyrone Mings. Villa were under pressure to win the game or at least force a draw as they were in the relegation zone.
As the visitors broke in a counter attack, seeking a goal in the game, Mings was very furious at his teammate for his failure to track back and cover in the attack. The Dutch winger – with dual citizenship but skipped Morocco after Cristiano Ronaldo advice – who joined from Lille this summer has quite a reputation as a hothead but his talent cannot be ignored.

Gareth Barry's younger teammates believe he is capable of playing on until he is 40. The veteran midfielder, who turns 38 in February, is enjoying his first ever campaign in the second tier after 20 consecutive seasons in the Premier League. He’s worked his way into the Baggies team in recent weeks and has started four of the last six games for Darren Moore. In Albion’s last fixture, a 4-1 victory over Reading, he completed the full 90 minutes and started the match as captain.
Harvey Barnes was born just six months before Barry made his Villa debut 20 years ago, but the youngster believes his experienced teammate, who has played 770 senior games, can continue till his 40s. “I don’t see why not,” said Barnes, who is currently away with England under-21s. “He has had a great career and I’m sure he’d like it to continue. He is massive for the team. You can see when he steps into the team it sort of brings a calmness around the place. You see it in training all the time, but when you are out there on a Saturday he just brings that composure and he has got a great left foot. Everyone knows what he has achieved a lot in his career and he is a real asset to the team.”

Everton loanee Kurt Zouma has said that he is confident of making a mark with parent club Chelsea despite going out on loan for the second straight season. The France international only penned a six-year deal with the Blues 12 months ago but he has since failed to make a single competitive appearance for the west London giants.
Despite this, he is unperturbed by the situation and he has the belief that he can break into the Blues setup once he has proved himself with regular gametime, he said: “I will go back, yes. I have always believed in myself since I started playing football at 16. I have always wanted to show myself at Chelsea since I have been there. I want to show people I can come back and play there.

It might have gone unnoticed in the midst of Everton's Europa League progression, but one Blue made history during the Ruzomberok tie. Leighton Baines is now the full-back that has the most appearances in club history, exceeding the great Tommy Wright who was at the top of the list.
The Everton legend, Baines celebrated the 10th anniversary of his arrival at Everton. In a summer of change, he remains a key figure for Ronald Koeman. The £6m sent to Wigan in August 2007 will go down as one of the best pieces of business the club have done. Seems irrelevant but it is not. Everton have had a few cultured left foots down the years – Kevin Sheedy being the most obvious example – but Baines appears first before any name you will care to mention.
