Press news in...
Johannes Hoff Thorup will be with us shortly to preview NCFC’s clash against LUFC 🟢🟡
--------------------------------------------------------------
JHT on team news: “It’s the same. Ben (Chrisene) suffered a mild concussion towards the end of the game, so we have to abide by protocol. He will sit out of the next two games.”
JHT on Barnes: “He’s back in his boot, which is frustrating for him. He wants to be in and around the group, and he’s great for the dressing room.”
JHT on Barnes: “It’s three weeks in a boot and then we have to assess if he needs a surgery. It’s the Achilles the same as at the end of last season.”
*Fassnacht and Sorensen are expected back after the international break *
JHT: “When you play three games in a week you have to think about rotations. But most players can play Saturday and Tuesday.”
JHT on Derby: “I think our response after their goal (first one) was fantastic. That was a tough moment for us as the crowd was going.”
JHT: “It was important for us to show we can win back-to-back. It was a difficult pitch as they were unbeaten on it. We don’t talk about results, it comes down to the performance.”
JHT on Gunn: “I think he’s a good keeper and he can still develop and improve. We now have a new goalkeeper coach from abroad, with a new set of eyes. We can make him an even better goalkeeper.”
JHT on Duffy: “I’m so happy you asked me about him. I think he’s been a really important player for our build-up and defensive play. He’s took some steps and been so focused. He’s been positive in his mindset.”
JHT on LUFC: “They are a strong side and I like the way they play. They have pace upfront and can find good spaces between the lines. I like these games as we can see what we are made of. There will be moments when we have to defend and stick together.”
JHT: “It’s going to be a long one at home waiting for kick-off, as it’s an exciting one.”
JHT on Farke: “A lot of people still talk about what he done here. Two Championship titles while he was here. I hope the fans show him respect tomorrow, but we want to put in a fight in.”
JHT: “We need to go out there and play our game, but still take risks. The players need to get back in the dressing room and look each other in the eyes and know they went for it.”
