We need an international break!

Only 6 more games until the next one!

Just noticed that the Middlesbrough vs Sheffield United game is on. I'll probably watch that game tonight.

Does that mean it is all right for me to SHOUT then? If you aren't watching our match. ;-) :-)

Nah, with our luck we'd lose three more players to injury in friendlies they shouldn't be touching with a ten foot pole

At least all 3 keepers are available.

Get Eddie in midfield then….

 

[chesterbells]

At least he's getting a proper chance. He takes it or not, but you can't really judge a player who doesn't get a full ninety minutes, in my view.

I’m not sure he’ll get that long!

Who is this strange woman on TNT? She is like a fizzing bottle of lemonade with no substance just noise. :-)

So bad that I had to turn it over to the One Show!

Still only the middles of the injury table to be fair apart from 3 or 4 team 5-8 is the range of injured players.

That table can be misguiding.

The drop off in quality when we get a key injury isn't the same as someone like Chaudaray for Leicester or Garner for Everton gets injured.

Just got into the stadium. There’s a small but noisy section of visiting fans just to my left.

As for our starting eleven, our midfield looks a bit thin. How are we getting so many injuries. When did Grealish and Doku manage to get injured?

At least all 3 keepers are available.

There's the positivity of the pre match/match day thread we all know and love :)
