It happens every time

Every time the ACN is on there’s always at least one player who ‘goes missing’ on his way back to his club.

This time it’s Everton’s Yakubu. He was due back on Wednesday but Everton haven’t heard a thing. Club fines are being mooted, even transfering him out of the club, but Moyes should be more understanding. It’s like a lottery. You have an African player, so do some of the other clubs, you just have to hope it’s not yours that ‘goes missing’.

The question is - where the hell do they go?
