Death, taxes, etc.

With the possibility of 5 outfield players missing, will Elliott make the bench?

What an odd interview by Ratface - just as they have a level of competence and stability.

Players are always loose-lipped to their home media. While he's always on his best PR behaviour to Sky Sports etc. It's football cliché number 43.

Ok no excuses this time, and we owe them for that last game last season and I'm sure Unai will be reminding them of that.

No Amad, Mazroui, Mbuemo, de Ligt, McGuire and Casimero = no excuses

As long as they're not attached to bodies we should be ok.
