      I’m an FA Cup star dreaming of a Man Utd clash – but by day I work as a social support worker helping people with autism

      by

      LAMAR REYNOLDS is the busiest man in Maidstone right now.Before sitting down to speak with SunSport, the 28-year-old was called to film for ITV ahead of Monday’s blockbuster FA Cup clash with Coventry City.

      And prior to that he had spent a full day at work.
      Outside of football, Reynolds is a social support worker. When he isn’t training with Maidstone – usually three-to-four times a week – he spends time providing assistance for young adults with autism.
      “On a normal day I would maybe get in at 9am/9:30am or so and I get the guys ready. We do a bit of stretching and some fun exercises to get them ready for the day,” the forward revealed.
      “Maybe head out, go to a museum or the zoo if the weather is nice. Swimming even, then we go for lunch after that. After lunch we go and end our day with either another activity, like bowling or TopGolf, something that will keep them on their feet and keep them excited.

      “Then we’re pretty much done by around 3pm, get back to the base and let them have their chilled moments. They’re all quite close with each other, there’s a lot of friendship so they have their own time.”
      The group also bond over their love of football, with some supporting both Maidstone and Reynolds’ former club, Leyton Orient.
      Reynolds continued: “They’re big fans, they are big football fans! There’s a few fans of Leyton Orient as well so a few of them knew that I played for the club before and they talk to me about that quite often.
      “They watched the game (vs Ipswich) and they’re buzzing for Monday to come. They can’t wait to see it as well. I’ve got them on my back so that’s another big positive.”

      The Londoner hit the headlines last month when he scored for Maidstone against Ipswich in the fourth round of the FA Cup, sparking wild celebrations from the away end at Portman Road.
      Just before half time, Reynolds was sent through on goal by team-mate Liam Sole.
      He latched onto the pass over 30 yards out, taking a single touch on his right foot before chipping goalkeeper Christian Walton with his left.

      Reflecting on the moment of magic, Reynolds admitted: “Initially I had a very different finish in mind. Once Liam Sole played the ball across to me and put me in on goal, everything went completely quiet.
      “As much as there was so many people around, everything was silent and it was just like me versus the goal and the goalkeeper.
      “It felt a bit slow. It was a bit nerve wracking. But I thought about doing a different type of finish in terms of opening up my body and maybe going for a safer option.
      “But then the keeper came off his line and I think that made my mind up – I had to go high and try to get it over him.
      “Luckily as soon as it left my feet I knew it was going in so I just burst off in celebration. It was an extraordinary moment that I will probably never forget.”

      Jeremy Sarmiento equalised for Ipswich in the 56th minute before Sam Corne scored the winner with less than half an hour to play.
      The following day, Maidstone were drawn against Coventry.
      George Elokobi’s side were last out of the pot, but fans appeared far from pleased.
      Local supporters that had flocked to the Gallagher Stadium on January 28 wanted to see the Stones drawn against a Premier League side.
      And to an extent, so did the players themselves.
      However, Reynolds insists they will travel to Coventry and enjoy the occasion regardless.
      He added: “I mean, to be fair after the Stevenage game we probably wanted a big draw from then because I think we made history from then. So that would’ve been nice to have got a big draw, but hey, we got Ipswich and somehow we got through to the next round so we were more than happy with that.
      “But yeah, we expected a bigger opponent, maybe from the Premier League, but Coventry is still a huge club with massive ambition so we take that as a tough game to go to like any other. We’re just going to go there, see what we can do and most definitely enjoy the occasion.
      “We just have to look at it as another game. It’s 11 men versus 11 men so there’s nothing to fear, nothing to be afraid of.
      “They’ve obviously been in great form so we give them that respect. We have so many people behind us and looking at how far we’ve come already we’re just so impressed with ourselves that right now we’re just ready to go again and see what we can do.”
      Reynolds hopes to face a big Premier League team if Maidstone beat CoventryCredit: Getty
      Reynolds has enjoyed plenty of career highlights over the last 13 years.
      At just 15-years-old he made his senior debut for Barking FC and went on to play for non-league sides Grays Athletic, Aveley and Brentwood Town.
      After enjoying his most prolific season with Brentwood he was invited to Jamie Vardy’s V9 Academy, a scheme set up by the Leicester City legend with the hope of giving non-league players the opportunity to be scouted by professional clubs.
      Reynolds spent five days at Manchester City’s Etihad campus and was scouted by League Two side Newport County.
      He was later loaned to Leyton Orient and played under the guidance of former Tottenham defender Justin Edinburgh.
      A stint at Dagenham and Redbridge then followed before he signed for Concord Rangers.
      The forward helped Concord reach the FA Trophy final at Wembley Stadium in 2021 and remained at the club until the following summer when he joined Braintree.
      Now, less than one year into his time at Maidstone, he is eyeing a spot in the FA Cup quarter-finals.
      Should Maidstone beat Coventry in another huge upset on Monday, Reynolds wants to take on a Premier League giant.

      He admitted: “Personally I would like a Manchester United, Liverpool or Manchester City even. That would be nice.
      “I think we were close to getting one of the big boys but obviously it fell to what it is now. We wanted one of the Premier League big boys but whoever we get we’re more than happy with. It’s a pleasure to be in the position we’re in.” More

      Transfer recommendations ahead of Gameweek 25 – target midweek FA Cup games for bumper points

      by

      MIDWEEK FA Cup fifth round fixtures mean nine teams are set to pull double duty in Gameweek 25.As usual, you should try to ensure your Dream Team contains several players with two fixtures at their disposal in hope of banking plentiful points.
      However, while the short-term focus is on favourable double headers in Gameweek 25, you should probably be plotting to target the upcoming Europa League knockout fixtures – not to mention Aston Villa’s Europa Conference League round of 16 tie.

      PLAY SCORE PREDICTOR AHEAD OF THIS WEEKEND’S PREMIER LEAGUE ACTION – SOMEBODY MUST WIN £500 AMAZON GIFT CARD!

      One of Dream Team’s most in-form players currently features in just 3.1% of teamsCredit: Dream Team
      Here we’ll propose some transfer suggestions specifically for Gameweek 25 as well as some with longer legs.
      Pascal Gross (£4.4m)
      First up, a man who ticks both boxes.
      No midfielder has earned more points than Brighton’s No13 across their last three outings and a home game against out-of-form Everton this Saturday looks ripe for further returns.
      The Seagulls will then face Wolves in the cup on Wednesday night.
      If the combination of good form, favourable league match-up and additional midweek fixture isn’t enough to convince you of Gross’ viability then it’s worth noting that Roberto De Zerbi’s men have four fixtures to fulfil across Gameweeks 26 and 27 once their Europa League opponents are determined.
      Most read in Football
      In fact, Brighton and Liverpool are the only two teams facing three consecutive double Gameweeks.
      Gross has scored scored five goals and provided a whopping 12 assists in all competitions this season.
      He’s also seemingly on penalties while Joao Pedro (£4.3m) is injured.
      The Germany international is comfortably De Zerbi’s most-used player in 2023/24 too – he’s essentially rotation-proof.
      Pedro Neto (£3.4m)
      One of the Premier League’s most-exciting talentsCredit: Getty
      It doesn’t take a genius to see that backing Sheffield United’s opponents is often a fruitful endeavour.
      The Blades are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table having mustered just 13 points since promotion and this Sunday they travel to Molineux to face a Wolves side who beat Tottenham last time out.
      Gary O’Neil’s side have a certain swagger about them these days, mostly because of Neto’s incredible dribbling and counterattacking speed.
      The Portuguese winger has registered 16 goal involvements in just 19 appearances this season and will surely be licking his lips at the prospect of running at the top flight’s worst defence.
      As previously mentioned, Wolves will then host Brighton in midweek.
      Neto averages 6.2 points-per-game this campaign and is therefore on for a double-digit haul in Gameweek 25, he may even manage that against Chris Wilder’s beleaguered troops alone.
      Luis Diaz (£3.8m)
      A man in formCredit: EPA
      Like Gross, Liverpool’s Colombian winger has a lot of things going for him right now.
      Not only is he set to take his impressive form (47 points in five games) into a double header this coming Gameweek, the upcoming Europa League knockouts mean he’ll be extra busy.
      Plus, with Diogo Jota (£4.3m) sidelined for at least two months and both Mohamed Salah (£6.7m) and Darwin Nunez (£4.5m) minor doubts at the time of writing, Diaz is virtually guaranteed substantial minutes in the Reds’ productive front three for the foreseeable future.
      After Wednesday night’s win over Luton, the 27-year-old has now scored ten goals and provided six assists in 2023/24.
      Jurgen Klopp’s side take on Chelsea at Wembley in the Carabao Cup final on Sunday before hosting Southampton on Wednesday night – one suspects Saints will be more focused on their quest for promotion in the Championship.
      Looking ahead, Gameweek 26 looks ripe for points for Diaz and company with an as yet undecided Europa League opponent to follow a game against 16th-placed Nottingham Forest.
      It’s probably spelling out the obvious here: if Salah is good to go this weekend then he’s clearly a fantastic option.
      The Egyptian superstar bagged ten points in just over 45 minutes upon his return to remind us all of his supreme pedigree.
      Rasmus Hojlund (£3.8m)
      Very much among the goalsCredit: AP
      You simply have to consider Manchester United’s in-form striker given he’s scored in each of his last six games in all competitions.
      This bounteous spell has yielded 59 points and so it’s understandable why he’s currently the second-most popular recruit ahead of Gameweek 25.
      The Red Devils play Fulham in the league and Forest in the cup which constitutes a friendly double header on paper.
      However, it’s worth noting they have just one fixture in Gameweek 26 – a trip to the Etihad.
      Pep Guardiola’s side have struggled for clean sheets this season and Hojlund is capable of posing a threat to any opponent in current form but it’s fair to assert that Manchester City away is about as tough as it gets schedule-wise.
      If you’re happy to ride out the Manchester derby then United are also due to play Everton and Sheffield United before the international break.
      Diogo Dalot (£3.4m) also belongs in this conversation although the industrious full-back is certainly more of a short-term punt with that trip to the Etihad looming large.

      Elsewhere, Man City’s double header of Bournemouth and Luton looks appealing on paper but we’ve highlighted this strategy several times in recent weeks.

      About time he got his flowers’, say Man Utd fans after ‘underrated’ star is singled out by Newport player

      In a blockbuster win, United progressed to the fifth round thanks to goals from Bruno Fernandes, Kobbie Mainoo, Antony and Rasmus Hojlund.
      But despite the United goalscorers striker Evans admitting it was Dalot who left him in awe during last month’s game.
      When asked who surprised him the most in terms of quality in the United team, Evans without a doubt said “Dalot.”
      On the Goalposts for Jumpers podcast, Evan said: “There was a ball that came over my head, it was probably like chest height.

      “And I’ve watched it the whole way and I’ve seen Dalot in front of me and he just, in the air back-heeled it, back to the keeper and I just thought what… what chance have I got?
      “And he’s rapid like he is lightning quick, like I was not surprised, ’cause you’re not surprised by it but he was crazy to me.”
      Fans could only agree with Evans as they shared their thoughts on Dalot not getting the recognition he deserves.
      As one supporter said: “About time Dalot got his flowers🙌👏.”

      The 24-year-old has made 32 appearances this term across all competitions playing over 2600 minutes.

      Sheffield Wednesday boss surprised he could field £40k-a-week Premier League star after snubbing him from squad

      NEWCASTLE loanee Jeff Hendrick was left off Sheffield Wednesday’s 25-man EFL registered squad, but still played in an FA Cup game. Hendrick was back on the pitch in last week’s FA Cup match against Coventry, which Wednesday lost 4-1.

      Hendrick joined Wednesday at the start of the season after falling out of favour at St James’ Park.
      In January he reportedly asked to terminate his loan spell at Hillsborough but the request was refused.
      Manager Danny Rohl explained Hendrick’s latest appearance on the pitch, saying he was surprised to discover that players left off the EFL squad registration list can still play in cup games. 
      Speaking to The Star, Rohl said: “He played some minutes in the cup which was good.

      “There is a learning also from my side that you have an FA Cup list and a league list.” 
      He went on to explain why Hendrick had originally been left out of the squad, saying: “We have seven loans and so we have to make decisions, this is part of the reason why.”
      As the rules stand, a club can only register five loanee players and Hendrick did not make the cut. 
      Rohl then said it wasn’t all over for the player, adding: “He is still involved and I think maybe when I look to the next 15 games it could be that he is helpful.

      City progressed 1-0 thanks to Laia Aleixandri’s goal but it was a celebrity fan who caught the eye during the match.
      Cameras picked out Scott’s girlfriend and singer Glynne in the stands at Meadow Park.
      As she was shown on screen, Scott could be heard laughing nervously as she explained the match could go to penalties if it remained level.
      She continued by referencing one of Glynne’s songs, saying: “Jess Glynne right there, there’s no place she’d rather be.”

      The pun, which was a nod to Glynne and Clean Bandit’s 2013 single Rather Be, was met with more laughter from Scott and the pundits.
      Her commentary was later shared to Instagram by a fan, who wrote: “Cutest commentary ever.”
      Scott reposted the video, adding: “You lot are killing me with these, going to go crawl under a rock now.”
      She had earlier shared a snap of Glynne at the ground as she took her place in the presenting booth and holding a microphone.

      Alex Scott and Jess Glynne reportedly began dating in the summer.
      Initially, they kept their romance private – enjoying secret dates, away from scrutiny.
      However, they have since confirmed their romance in public.
      It is understood they began a courtship before and after the Women’s World Cup which ran from July to August.
      Right before Scott took on her presenting duties at the Women’s World Cup, the pair enjoyed a pub lunch together in North West London.
      That same month, in August, the famous two both attended a Coco Der Mer party.
      Work commitments meant Alex and Jess were a ‘slow burn’. Their romance was formed organically over time.
      Just a month after they were pictured sitting next to each other at the 2023 Attitude Awards at the Roundhouse in Camden we had confirmation.
      Photographers pictured them walking arm-in-arm with each other in London.

      Alongside the snap, Scott joked: “A new presenter for today’s FA Cup game.”
      The couple, who enjoyed a loved-up holiday in Mexico last month, are understood to have been dating since last summer.

      Their relationship, which was described as a “slow-burn”, began around the time of the Women’s World Cup between July and August
      Scott and Glynne were later spotted at multiple events and parties, having previously sat side-by-side at Wimbledon.
      After keeping their relationship private and out of the public eye, their romance was confirmed in November after they were snapped walking arm-in-arm and sharing a kiss.

      Arsenal cult hero Nicklas Bendtner in hulking body transformation after piling on three STONE of muscle since retirement

      by

      ARSENAL cult hero Nicklas Bendtner has undergone an incredible body transformation after he put on more than THREE stone of muscle.The striker scored 47 goals in 171 appearances for the Gunners, but retired from football in 2021.
      Nicklas Bendtner looked a lot more slender during his nine year spell at ArsenalCredit: News Group Newspapers Ltd
      Bendtner showed off his hulking physique on his InstagramCredit: Instagram

      Bendtner, 36, featured 136 times in the Premier League and notched 32 top-flight goals.
      He won an FA Cup in 2014, and still clearly loves the Gunners, showing up for a clash against Brighton last season in a retro kit.
      The Dane explained in his book that he gained 10kg in muscle mass during his time at Juventus through explosive work outs.
      He unveiled his ripped body, showing off his six pack and huge biceps to his 434k followers.

      He looked almost unrecognisable with his lion chest tattoo and long locks.
      During his playing days, things were not always so straightforward.
      First, he admitted nearly becoming bankrupt after gambling away almost £5.4million in poker, including blowing £400,000 in 90 minutes at a London casino.
      Then, he was placed under house-arrest in 2020 and had to wear an electronic tag for assaulting a taxi driver.

      Since he said farewell to the game though, ‘Lord Bendtner’ is enjoying a gym-packed lifestyle.
      During his up-and-down spell at Arsenal, he left on loan to Birmingham City, Sunderland and Juventus.

      He eventually permanently joined Wolfsburg on a three-year deal in 2014.
      After having his contract terminated, he spent one year at Nottingham Forest in the Championship and Rosenborg.
      He then joined boyhood club Copenhagen in 2019, scoring his only goal in a cup game.
      Bendtner did bag the Premier League record for the fastest goal scored by a substitute in 2006.
      He came off the bench to head in Cesc Fabregas’ corner six seconds later in a winter north London derby.  
      He now hosts Danish TV’s equivalent of the MTV classic Punk’D, playing pranks on celebrities and members of the public.
      His documentary ‘Nicklas Bendtner – The Portait’, will be released as a series in three episodes on Viaplay with a premiere on February 12. More
