…LACK OF GOAL

Some of the performances have been very good, with clean sheets and points in there against tough sides. There are lots of positive signs - we just need to score more goals and I think we all know that.

…ROY HODGSON

Bigger than the game is his health and we hope he comes through that no problem. We want that more than anything.

…ABOUT MATCH

When the game comes round, we have to look beyond that. It is an important game and the points are important so we know that has to be parked. "It's nothing to do with us. If it unbalances the situation at their end it's helpful but equally the other way, will they be galvanised? It is a straightforward game - we are thinking only about ourselves.

Club Statement:

Roy Hodgson will not held press conference due to illness.
