Fans laud Saiss
“Got to look at the bright points – Saiss was Magnificent. Ki-Jana Hoever has given Nuno a really difficult decision to make on Sunday, he was excellent. Vitinha very good as well. Kilman, excellent. We need player(s) for the now in January, but our future is very exciting #wwfc”

“Devastating Stoppage Time Goal…deserved a point here today. Bright side is deflection aside, Saiss continues to impress, the kids played well and that was Moutinho and Neves best game in weeks. Team just needs to find goals, somewhere, somehow. #wwfc”
