      YouTubing has an abnormally low entry threshold. So long as you have a laptop with a webcam, a YouTube account and a flair for endless insincere grinning that barely masks the swirling vortex of abject nothingness that consumes your every waking moment, you’re ready to take your first steps.

      He had discussed joining Atlanta United in MLS and following his retirement, there was an outside chance that Hugo Lloris’ current injury at Tottenham Hotspur would create an opening there.
