Vokins was in the England u17s until he got injured earlier in the year. He's back for us now but I bet he's gutted to have lost his England place.
Poch is hardly in a rush to get Eriksen on. Of course he'll be annoyed at his players for losing a 2-0 lead, but I don't think he'll lose much sleep tonight if they go home. It is Poch and the cup competitions, after all.

He was right about the hard matches he had to play early in the season....glad we didn't have those, but, on the other hand, we have them all to come. Rather have lost to a top club than to the teams we did drop points to. RK says that they nearly had Giroud, but he changed his mind at the last minute as he wanted to stay in London. Giroud would certainly have made a difference. Was going to put this in the PL thread, but then realised that Ron is no longer in the PL.
