00:34I'll leave that to the doctor, but his will, there's no question about that.

00:39He wants to be present in every game, and obviously a big game like this one,

00:49But just to clarify, I know we can't wait too long because of the swelling,

00:52but you're not ruling him out at this stage?

00:54Players with 48 hours are always available, but let's see what happens.
