I doubt it. It'll be the usual chase one player and not sign them, that we see every deadline day. They've known since last season we needed a playmaker.

It's one game against a team so much better than us. We beat Liverpool and drew with Man U pre-season and looked good in both games...

A lot of work needs doing next two days, that was plain before kick off. We have to get up to 25 squad which is what we had last season. And if Gnonto is off then he has to be replaced too

Bad hamstring for Rodon could leave us with another player short.


Off comes Bijol who can't play in a 4 Tanaka gives us a 3 in midfield and wilson for aaronson

At least DF has changed it.

It's a miracle we are only 0-1 down.

Still hope 🤞🙏

Can't keep on passing the ball to them.

They don't need help.
