A pre-match tribute

to the key workers who have worked so hard over the pandemic, and also those both sides have lost, before kick-off and supported by both sets of supporters - a nice moment before the game

Slavisa Jokanovic’s pre-match preview...

They are a brave team, they want to play with the ball and enjoy possession. But like all teams they can make mistakes and if they do, we will try to punish them.

Looking forward to hearing the Blades fans in the away end here

Sander Berge speaking pre-match...

We learned from last week and the boys have played one style of football for many yards now so it takes some adapting to how Slav wants to play. The staff are very knowledgeable and worked with a lot of good players before, I’ve seen the boys raise their game already.
