That also means Klich will be getting further forward where he belongs. Feeling better right now, this will be better than what we've seen the past couple of performances.
You would think so Moth :)

I can accept a defeat if we give them a game but another heavy loss and the alarm bells will be just starting to ring.
Our must win games are against the teams below us.
