Okore was watching the game in the stands :)

He was about 5 rows behind us before a steward came along and moved him.

How could you even begin to try to break the roof down?

Okore will not be fit till September after his op Sanchez is on his hols after the Copa, I dont think Grealish has featured in any pre season matches so far?

He was getting mobbed and asked for photo's, so a steward came over and took him to the side stand, where he got mobbed and asked for photo's.

As for the game itself, it was a typical friendly really. Sinclair looked to impress again. The new boy Marvin was pretty good. You could tell Kozak has been out for a long time and it'll take him a while to get back to full fitness and the the young lad Sellars looked very sharp and confident when he came on. I think we might have a player on our hands there.

Grealish expected to start doing ball work this week

Can't see him starting v Bournemouth. Hoping Gil will be fit soon

We do seem cursed, injury wise don't we?
If we can get the midfield right, to allow the likes of Grealish and Gil some freedom, we could be a surprise package.

what position does Sellars play?
And, Calder for that matter?
