After watching the training video on the website, it seems we have pretty much a full squad to chose from for the weekend. Even saw Cav and Kongolo. Only one I didn't see was Chalobah but I'm assuming he was there based on what Silva said last week
The boys coming out to training wrapped up with all kinds of layers reminded of the 90s film Cool Runnings, when the Jamaican bobsleigh team first arrive in Canada.

I didn't spot mitro but one or two of them were so wrapped up. Was he there?
A fully fit squad heading toward the middle of December is as good as it gets in this division.

Yes briefly - I have to say I realised on second watch that Silva went around all the squad to shake hands (in modern form) to welcome them. There really does seem to be a joy in the camp that had been missing in recent times. Hope we do see Chalobah very soon with Seri leaving us for a while
A fit squad and a full week of preparation against a mid table team, no excuses for a poor performance and really a must win if we are to continue as table toppers.

Yup. This^^^^^
Don't fully trust this team away from home.A point on the Road never a disaster! Particularly if the Home form remains strong.

I know that feeling as well enough as any long term FFC supporter. However, I do see signs this season that, although we have dropped six points in the last three games, when the intensity of play is on the money we are very lethal at scoring goals and much less vulnerable to conceding. It's a difficult fixture tomorrow and one that offers Silva and his charges a chance to show they are the real deal and a Championship title chasing unit. I am hoping our midfield has recovered fully from the 'sickness saga' and poses problems for our opponents that they cannot counter because that is where it has mainly fallen short in the last three games. Last week Cairney produced the one cross that was so lethal it was simply begging to be put away. Perhaps he'll get a start tomorrow.
