🔰🎙️ David Wagner's press conference to follow.
------------------------------------------------------
DW on Hwang Ui-Jo: “Hamstring injury and we hope he will be back before the end of the year. He had a scan and no surgery is needed.”
DW: “He was in good form and scored goals. We try to deal with the situation of this injury and find solutions.”
DW on Gunn, Rowe and Forshaw: “All three could be available for Sunday if they train tomorrow without any issues.”
DW on Sargent: “The week leading into Huddersfield we expect him back in team training. He is two weeks ahead of the schedule. We expect Lungi and Gibson back around then. Grant will be the week before that.”
DW on squad age: “It’s obvious. We can and like to reduce the age of the squad. But this means the contracts need to run down or get offers, so this is a plan for the future. This is no secret”
DW: “Some of the signings we done late as we had to react, so I know why we have done this. Experience doesn’t mean they are super old in situations.”
DW: “I met Mark (Attanasio) and his representatives this week. I have already spoken to Ben (Knapper) about the January window. Hopefully, we can do some good things.”
DW on Delia’s negativity commente: “Listen, in general there is frustration. Nobody is happy with where we are at the moment. I think, this is clear. Everyone who feels with this club is not happy. Me, my players, owners or fans. I’m not sure showing this helps.”
DW: “We know a few reasons why we are in this situation we face. We know what we need to do to solve it. I understand and respect the frustration. If we can turn it then the people who are negative will be happy and celebrating for the guys.”
DW: “We were leading 2-0 and we didn’t perform in the second-half. I have the main responsibility for this. I respect the supporters reaction. Do I like it? No. Four months ago I was at the wheel.”
DW: “We will not get driven away by the noise.”
DW: “Four months ago everyone was screaming and celebrating. Hopefully, in four months time they can be screaming and celebrating again.”
DW: “It’s all about the confidence and bravery. Even in this negative atmosphere - the players need to calm it down.”
DW: “We have a chance to get a result in the Championship. We need to be better than we were at Watford. We need to be as clinical as we have been all season as we can score goals. We need to stop making big mistakes.”
