00:00Looking ahead to this weekend though, squad-wise, I'm guessing Trent probably out,
00:04Canate though, is he fit?
00:06And therefore at right-back as well, is it a straight choice between Joel and maybe Embo?
00:11Yeah, I think maybe even Curtis can play there,
00:16and you can also play with a left-footed defender on the right side,
00:20which is what Newcastle are doing at the moment, but then the opposite.
00:24So Trent is indeed not available, he will not be there at the final,
00:29but he's still to be assessed for how long it's going to take,
00:33but we do expect him back at the end of the season.
00:36And what about Ibu Canate?
00:41We didn't train yesterday, we were a day off, and the day before was recovery,
00:46so I expect him to train with us today, but let's see how he is.
