00:00 "Just a couple of things to pick up. Injuries, first of all. How are you looking? Who's available?

00:07 Who's not? Where's Luis James? Fernandes? Isedo? Both."

00:13 "You have time?"

00:14 "Both, yeah."

00:15 "No, I think we need to assess now because we finished training session a little bit late.

00:21 We need to assess Axel Nisasi, we need to assess Nico Jackson. We need to assess also Riz.

00:33 Broxah is out because he's a little bit irritated with his knee, but it's another knee. That was a problem in the past.

00:43 We have a few players that we need to assess to see if tomorrow he can be available, can play or can be on the bench or maybe out of the list."

00:55 "So Broxah, out. Everyone else still possible?"

01:00 "There are others. Benoit maybe can be available also to be on the bench. Benoit, the body shield."

01:08 "There's stories about Luis James having a setback. Can you set that straight?"

01:12 "No, no, no. He was training good the last few days. I think it's now to talk about with all the medical staff and everything

01:22 and decide if he can be part of the squad tomorrow."

01:26 "Just finally on this bit, Fernandes and Caicedo obviously got back quite late."

01:31 "Fernandes trained yesterday. Caicedo arrived yesterday afternoon and was checking for the doctor and was in a very good state.
