00:00Check on the squad for now. James Tarkovsky, how is he?

00:04Tarkovsky's out. He's going to be out for the rest of the season.

00:07He'll have an operation in his hamstring.

00:10So it's a big blow to us because Tarkovsky plays such a huge part of what we've done

00:17and how we've done so well in this period.

00:20Should he be back for the start of pre-season?

00:23I think he'll be back, but it could start to eat into that as well, possibly.

00:27How tempted then this weekend are you to play Jake O'Brien at centre-half and see how he goes?

00:33Well, I think Jake is at centre-half, so I don't think it would be...

00:35It shouldn't be anything which we're saying is, you know, we shouldn't be that...

00:40I'm not worried about doing it, that's for sure.

00:42It's trying to get the right balance for the team, which we think.

00:44He's done a brilliant job playing at full-back.

00:48So sometimes you'll get the decision to make,

00:49no, do they change two positions or do they change one position?

00:53So that's it. We've got Michael Keane available as well.

00:56So we've got options and we'll look to play the options between now and the end of the season

01:01and find out which works best for us.

01:04Dominic's still a little bit away.

01:06Dom's very close to coming back into training.

01:09He's not training with the first team yet.

01:10He's doing plenty of work on the grass, but yeah, close now.
