Wondering if anyone had any recommendation for people to follow on twitter for any football news, stats or analysis. I guess I'm looking for the football Woj :lol:

Raphael Honigstein @honigstein
Henry Winter @henrywinter
Oliver Kay @oliverkaytimes

I think out of those Honigstein might be the closest to Woj as he covers basically every major European league.

If you can somewhat understand Italian you could try Sky Italia @skysport or @skysports don't remember which one.

Depends on the club/league you follow. There's really no one like Woj because it's impossible to be that connected when there are hundreds of clubs in Europe alone.

For the PL, BBC, Sky Sports, Guardian, Times and Telegraph are pretty good depending on the journalist who's reporting the news.

For Liverpool, see above + Liverpool Echo.

There are also guys like Di Marzio and Goncalo Lopez who are usually reliable when it comes to the league they cover.

Twitter accounts that consolidate rumours from around the world like Sport_Witness are good too if you like reading rumours.

yeah sport witness is a good follow , compiles everything from a bunch of papers around the globe and gives us an idea of how reliable it usually is.

but yeah there's no one really close to woj , everyone has their own speciality league and contacts. I follow team specific journo's and bloggers for all my arsenal coverage.

michael cox(zonal marking) has some good analysis , @optajoe tweets random stats and facts , 101goals for videos of goals , and swiss ramble(business side of football blogger) if you want something different.
