00:00Obviously, Hector Dale-Laurel and Delacroix all involved last night in a great win for the Under-23s.
00:05That's going to be quite the selection headache going forward into Christmas.
00:08So is that something, obviously, it's a good thing, all these players coming back?
00:10Good thing, yeah.
00:11Look, they're the demands of the job and the chair that I sit in,
00:14and certainly the headache's what you want as a coach, really.
00:18You never want people on the injured table.
00:21And we've got three centre-halves that have played last night coming back from injury.
00:25One pleased that all of them got some minutes yesterday
00:29and they're all moving in the right direction, really.
00:31So I'm pleased for that.
00:32And that headache is down to me to obviously manage,
00:35but it gives us that opportunity.
00:36It gives us a real opportunity to use them players when need be, really.
00:42Is there any news on other absentees like Lyle, Manuel and Aaron?
00:47Aaron and Lyle are both moving in the right direction, so is Benny.
00:50Benny's on the grass now.
00:52Same with Lyle.
00:54All of them are probably a few weeks away.
00:59Benny and Aaron are probably a little bit longer than that,
01:02but moving in the right way.
