Use Of "Literally"
Sorry, this is pedantic and petty but that word is so overused!
"There was literally no reports linking them with a move to sign the Kosovo international before the deal was confirmed yesterday".
There either were reports of us signing him or there weren't. In this case, just write "There were no reports..." etc etc.
Its like when people write "It was literally raining cats and dogs" -no, unless you are next to Battersea Dogs Home and its just exploded.
Sorry, I'll f**k off now. Other than that, good to see us showing the Hammers how its done.
