    It sounds common sense to me, and as yourself that's not having a pop, ideal sub on 70 minutes old pro to do what's required slow the game down ETC or maybe as at Carlisle snatch an equalizer.

    I think we’ll do a Man City and play without a recognised striker. Walker the number ten role, and two wingers.

    I think we'll play Tulloch myself.

    He seems to be considered a senior player.

    I expect some City players to perform brilliantly in front of Sky cameras, maybe in defiance of team orders, to get noticed.

    Secondly, I'm concerned that I will oversleep, miss the bus and train to Bradford, because I'm sitting up enjoying my new hi-fi and old music at nearly 2am.

    He should but he won’t, Hughes said in the press conference that we mustn’t put too much pressure on him and introduce him gradually. Meanwhile other teams 18 year olds run us ragged.

    Don't worry, as soon as Eisa puts a foot on the turf at VP, he'll pull up with an injury. That's what he does here, right?

    My concern is more to do with our lack of goals, although I do agree Eisa will be out to show what's he's capable of, Hughes commented about the lad in his latest pre match interview saying what a super lad he was never bellyached about anything just got on with training ETC when fit, he was a pleasure to work with.
    It will be interesting to see if Grimsby can keep the kid fit and playing games then maybe we need to ask why we couldn't as looking at his stats at Scunthorpe he played 67 games over his two seasons with them, so not injury prone there.

    If you're good enough, you're old enough.
    Get the lad in Hughes!

    We live in a land of drainage dykes and pigs and trust me if you get bitten round here some of the infections are scary!

    Barcelona teenager Lamine Yamal became the youngest player and goalscorer for the Spanish national team in a thumping Euro 2024 qualifying win against Georgia.

    Yamal, aged 16 years and 57 days, came on for Dani Olmo just before half-time.

    Worked with a guy recently who taught Eisa at school down in London. Said he was a lovely lad and gentle to a fault. Thought he was too 'nice' to be a footballer and kept stopping to apologise even if he just brushed past someone.

    Eisa 9/1 first goal scorer.

    365 still think Cook is playing, so be quick with those bets if you want longer odds on Eisa!

    There will be no pressure from the fans that is for sure. Let him loose to do his best. If he doesn’t manage to score no problem we are still behind him. He is one of our own.

    Based on injuries etc I can't think of a single valid reason not to play him.
