I quite like the episodes of this with different footballers as well. I don't mind the imposter episodes and if you want to really see how thick some of them are, watch 'passwords' on the England FA channel.

That was very entertaining.

The England video of Morgan and Ollie asking each other questions was a hard watch. Morgz came across as dumb as Jack!

Just watched Justin's post match short. Said he bumped in to McGinn after the game, apparently said he's hopefully back in the squad next week.

No pressure John, but your parish needs you.

He is without question for me the biggest miss. He might not be as flashy as Tielemans or even as dependable as Kamara, but his leadership and the ability to grab a game by the scruff of the neck, you just can't buy it.

If SJM is only a week or so away from returning then that'll be a massive boost to our squad. Obviously Tielemans returning will also really make a huge difference!

McGinn is our leader. No other player in that squad had those qualities. We can only hope his return is all that we hope for.

Hopefully this will be happening as John McGinn has been a huge miss to the team.
There is still so much we can achieve this season and his return will give us a massive lift.

You only have to watch the Everton game - before he goes off and after he goes off - to see the difference he makes.

Desperate expectations to think that SJM returning will be enough to turn this around, we have developed a habit of losing games.
It is going to need more than 1 player to stop the rot.

It’s not desperate, it’s adding quality, but also a psychological boost.

It’s not just quality we’re lacking, it’s leadership and inspiration. Losing those three has hit us mentally as well, it’s sucked the soul from the side.
