Very undervalued part of the squad and finally playing his part - with a full role now planned for 'Tomi'!

His international colleague Mitoma hopefully, now, adding another dimension down the left hand side.

Interesting that Barella was meant to be substituted at 60 mins - clearly declined the manager's instructions!

A Norwegian double header... 

The ref blows the fulltime whistle and we'll be right back with the roundup...

Well... mid-season break clearly didn't help the teams initially that's for sure but after running off some mince-pies finally got their acts together (though quite late in some regards).

Plymouth unchanged this week but showing strength off the bench - currently chasing one final piece of the puzzle and awaiting some news with tenderhooks – though the past changes still having some impact on the side it seems. 

Twente come back to win and great to see 18 year old Nusa get on the scoresheet as the team looks to rebuild with a more youthful vibe

After what seems to be 200 games together this week saw the end of the Hummels Ginter partnership with new signing Le Normand coming into partner the younger of the pair. The manager will need to look though at Barella's refusal to give way to KDB.

Independiente - despite a new DY in Palacios - keep moving forward, though a potential defensive departure could see the manager dip into the market for next season. Watch this space!

Thanks for a great week Paul!
