Next up – the Europa League final (OK so there’s a friendly in the USA next week) !

Our teamsheet showed a last minute change with Pedro feeling a hamstring in the warm-up and being replaced by Barkley. A perfect start – Abraham scoring within five minutes ! I’d barely composed myself and we’d conceded ! Where was our midfield ? Barkley was still struggling to realise that he was actually playing and not warming the bench. A very open game and after 15 minutes we’re ahead again. Mount proving that he really has what it takes in this league. I for one and everyone else, including the commentators, were convinced that there...
