Afcon will be a big opportunity for the likes of Dibling and Rohl to show what they've got with Gana and NDiaye not being available. Could also give Alcaraz, Iro and McNeil more game time with rotation during a busy period.
Not gonna lie, I wanted him straight in the side when we were playing Charly out wide because Charly for all his talent is definitely not a winger.
Ndiaye and Grealish look great together so he can earn his way into the side now.
I think this is the mess we avoided by not rushing the opening of the Bramley Moore Dock Stadium by a season earlier.

What interests me most there, is that of all the venues available in the City they have chosen to do it at the stadium 💙
RAWK will be going full anti monarchy if she doesn’t make an appearance with one of their scarfs wrapped round her heed.
PNE are the only Lancashire team ( of their size ) not to have climbed to the PL . I think Moyes got them to the play offs in the 1990's. Bolton , Blackpool ,Blackburn ,Wigan and Oldham have all been there but never seems to happen for Preston .
That explains the delays in the hospitality areas (apart from the village).
Additional boxes and more separate "restaurant" type places was the result.
They really have improved it.
Not strictly relevant - but its an interesting watch. Seemingly the first truly 'multi-purpose' stadium and the reason we have AstroTurf. They've got plans to renovate the stadium so yeah, may be of interest
