Press Conferences

Steven Schumacher: "I think it will be an exciting game. I'm really looking forward to it because it'll be a different style of game than what we've faced in the last few.

"They are probably unlikely to play a back five, which is what we've faced recently, and they're a team who definitely like to attack.

Leyton Orient Boss Richie Wellens: "They have got good footballers. They have two good wingers, whichever two play. They have obviously recruited really well.

"(Mason) Burstow was someone we liked, (Marcus) Forss is an unbelievable signing for the level and they have good midfield players who can handle the ball.
