00:00You spoke previously about you expect players to leave before Monday night. Do you still expect that to be the case?
00:06Probably not so much now. It's still maybe an option for us. Again, it's just the transfer, the winter transfer window, you just have to be reactive sometimes.
00:20It's just such a difficult window. It's a small window and certain players or certain clubs may come for certain players in that
00:29and it could be from one day to the next. So we'll see. I couldn't comment either way. I wouldn't want to sit here and say,
00:36yeah, well, there's players not leaving and they do. And so, yeah, we'll see.
00:40People like Strandy, Sambo, Matrez are not featuring. Can they maybe depart before the window?
00:45Maybe, yeah. Maybe there's a possibility on certain players who obviously have not had a lot of game time or want to get game time.
00:52So, yeah, there could be an option there.
00:54You'll be asked a lot, won't you, about the players that might be signing.
00:56But is it important as well to keep hold of your best players in a window like this with so much on the line the second half of the season?
01:01Yeah, I mean, look, every manager in every football club, that's why it's such a hard window.
01:07You never want to lose your best players and we're in exactly in that same position.
01:12We sit where we do in the league. We've done really well at this point.
01:15We want to keep this group together as much as we can.
