Utterly weird. Trafford makes numerous mistakes and keeps his place. Last week he does nothing wrong and gets dropped. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to see Muric play, but still, bloody odd!
Because this is where our 7 game winning run commences keeping us up..😀

The managers decision to bring the players back in for pre season ridiculously early doesn't seem to have done much good either.
