James Bond

I am a features writer for Football365 and Planet Football, writing primarily about the Premier League, UEFA competitions and the World Cup.

I write about Tottenham, a club I love and hate in equal measure, as often as I can get away with, especially if there is any opportunity at all to shoehorn some Erik Lamela in there.

My current favourite football rabbit-holes down which to disappear involve the formats for major tournaments such as the Champions League and World Cup, significant recent changes to those formats, why those changes have happened, and what that can and does mean for those events.
