According to tabloid speculation, the late return of midfield mainman Myhill is due to a summer of over-indulgence. His agent (otherwise known as his missus) claims that the extended rest period was a much-needed recharge of those fading batteries. But rumours of a rift will not go away. Myhill has been known in years past to be the first out there, even for a two-aside hit-the-bin game. The mystery is: why was Myhill still abroad after the season proper has started? Is he sniffing around for a move? Have the knees finally given up? Is he in a huff? A la Beckham, has the flight taken too much out of him?
But now ... He's back!
The question that is on the lips of every pundit is ... will he be match-fit? Will he have the sharpness needed to compete at this level? We shall see, come Wednesday when Myhill's first outing on the astroturf will tell if the wine, the pasta and the camper van have taken their toll on an ageing star.
The cameras will be there to record the moment of truth. Is he over the summer ... or over the hill?

Excellent news - the thing about young Myhill (surely ageing is unfair) is that he doesn't even need to be match fit to play well and have an influential game. Billy's right though - the camera will be there to record the key images of the match as always!
