Transcript

00:00 Jürgen, quite a bit of team news to get through, first of all, Andy Robertson,

00:03 what's the prognosis for him?

00:05 There's a little bit...

00:09 I think the decision will go towards surgery,

00:14 there was a little chance that we could try without,

00:18 but after talking to pretty much all experts,

00:21 it looks like surgery will be the best thing for, especially in the long term,

00:28 and that means he's out for a while.

00:33 I don't know exactly how long, but shoulder surgery is not an easy one,

00:39 from my experience you can train pretty quickly again,

00:43 but not football-specific, because you have to be careful,

00:48 challenges and all these kind of things, so yeah, he'll be out for a while.

00:53 Any other potential returnees this week as well?

00:58 Cody Gappo, Jota, Mike Cetic, are they available?

01:01 Jota was not injured, he was suspended.

01:04 Yeah, thank you very much.

01:06 Jogo is available again, if nobody tells me differently.

01:10 Cody trained once with the team, so we have to see how that goes for tomorrow.

01:22 Stefan out, Thiago out...

01:25 Who else did you name?

01:28 In our team?

01:30 Oh, Ben Doak from Scotland.

01:34 He has a little muscle thing, so we have to see,

01:39 but he's not available for the weekend.

01:41 Luke Chambers trains today for the first time,

01:48 again after a little ligament issue.

01:53 Conor Bradley still out. Yeah, that's it.
