Today is yet another must win game after last week’s defeat at Leicester City.
It’s getting to the point where we could slip in to the bottom half of the table, which would be completely unacceptable when you consider the form we were in at the beginning of the campaign.
So today is a huge opportunity to put some more space between ourselves and the bottom half and start moving forward for a decent end to the season.
