00:00Do we start with good old injury news? Where are you at first of all with David Rye? What are his chances of making the game?
00:08We have to wait another 24 hours.
00:10Is it not looking good?
00:14We have to wait 24 hours to see if he's looking good or not that good.
00:19I guess with PSG not worth taking the risk?
00:25It's not a risk, it's about a player being fit and available or not.
00:29When we have that clarity for Leicester, which is the main thing that we are thinking at the moment,
00:35we will make the decision tomorrow.
00:37White and Timber, where are they?
00:39Durant was able to take part in training today, so that's good news.
00:45He will be available in the squad.
00:47And Ben?
00:48And Ben hopefully as well.
00:51Can you let us know a little bit on the progress of Raquel Mourinho as well?
00:56I'm guessing this week is too soon for him, but how is he progressing?
01:01Tomorrow is too soon, the next week we will see.
01:03He had partial training today, he's been working so hard and he's looking good.
01:10It's just about the healing of that bone and how mature that is to expose him to contact basically.
