00:00It was great to see Kai Havertz back in training at the Emirates on Wednesday.

00:04Could he be involved on Sunday?

00:06We're going to decide that tomorrow.

00:08He's done certain parts of the sessions in the last two days.

00:12He looks in great shape, but I think it's more a shout of, first of all,

00:16the medical staff, the doctor especially, giving the clearance

00:20and then how Kai actually feels to contribute if he's required.

00:24How much credit does he deserve for getting himself back into a position

00:28that he could play before the end of the season?

00:30Unbelievable. I think he's worked great.

00:32The work that he's done as well, a lot of credit to all the medical staff

00:36for the work that they've done throughout the last few months

00:39because between them they've been pushing each other.

00:41We know how important Kai is for us.

00:43And the fact that he looks in great shape.

00:46I think he's improved a lot of the metrics that are very important for a striker

00:50to give himself the best chance and you see the transformation on him

00:54which has been really impressive.

00:56Once again, there's plenty of injuries you're dealing with right now.

00:59What's the latest with Declan Rice, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Martinelli and Urien Timber?

01:04Again, they've done part of the session, a complete session,

01:08so we're going to have to wait and see tomorrow if they can deal with things

01:12that they haven't done because they weren't ready to that early in the week.
