Transcript

00:00A bit of a break since your last game at Brentford and you managed to get the players out to a much warmer climate.

00:05How did that go? Did you see that as being very beneficial?

00:08Yes, I do. I think it went really well.

00:11We had a good few days away.

00:14I think over the course of the year, the players and the staff have had it pretty tough here.

00:18You know, it's been tough how the season started and over recent seasons,

00:22but the players are playing really well, have played really well, got great results.

00:26So, they deserved a little bit of time in the sunshine.

00:30Did it help any of those injured players? Were a number of them able to get over there with you?

00:34Yes, we took all the players.

00:38Good at Seamus Coleman, Brogia in the main, Chimiti,

00:42you know, are all sort of getting themselves closer to getting ready to play again.

00:47Well, we saw Paterson and Chimiti on the bench, didn't we, at Brentford?

00:50So, is Seamus nearer this weekend?

00:52Seamus is much nearer as well.

00:55Whether he's ready to be involved, I'm not quite sure yet.

00:59He's still training.

01:00We're obviously trying not to get him re-injured.

01:02So, we're giving him every opportunity to make sure he's fine.
