Without Wanyama, Schneiderlin or Cork, and with a makeshift central midfield. Very difficult, but as Lawro would say, the run of bad results has to end sometimes.
Would take those two own goals right now. We need some luck to change our form, and hopefully it comes on Saturday. I sincerely hope Steven Davis is fit.
That's a shaky team. With being low in confidence too......the midfield will be weak and the big lump upfront will get a chance with our two CB's. This is gonna end 1-2. Bollox.

The most worrying is Fonte as Gardos is out after getting a red card at Sheffield United. Also Mane...we can't afford to lose another midfielder. Let's hope we can get over the line without further problems.
Hopeful of a draw and that's about as confident I can get at the moment. Hopefully Mane will not start... RK please play Long (never thought I would see myself making a statement in support of starting a match with Long... heavens... these must be desperate times).
Stuck at work so grateful if some-one could post a summary of what Ron says at this afternoons press conference. Cheers.

Team news (not good news): Gardos, Morgan and Victor suspended. Cork, Rodriguez, Gallagher, Hesketh, Tadic all definitely out. Davis and Pelle doubtful.
