Only a couple of weeks ago we spent £6 million on a left back because of a serious injury to the previously permanently fit Aaron Cresswell. Yet – fragile though that situation was […]

We haven’t seen much if either tbh. But rumour is Obiang going to be sold off and Nordtveit will officially be his replacement.
