Press news in... (another very short one today)

Dean Smith's press conference will begin at 9am! Updates to follow...
----------------------------------------------------------------

DS: “Adam will be out for the season, so that’s a big blow for us.”

DS: “Mathias had another 60 minutes in a practice game in the week. He’s getting back to the levels.”

DS: “You have to have belief that you’re capable of going there and getting a result. We’ve had positive moments against top teams.”

DS: “You have to have belief and we have to fill the players with belief.”

DS: (On switching off from footy) “I play a bit of online chess, golf, and walk the dogs to take my mind off things.”

DS: "We had a behind closed doors friendly on Tuesday."

DS: “Ozan is back to full fitness. Tim is doing some handling work and is due another injection into the shoulder. Lukas is back in rehabilitation.”

DS: “Andrew will go back to see a consultant to get further guidance on his injury.”

DS: “Milot is one I’m really pleased with. He only has one FA Cup goal, but has produced a few assists and it won’t be long before he scores in the league.”

DS: “Josh came here as a striker. He can make it stick or run in behind. There’s an opportunity now for him and for others.”

That concludes Dean Smith’s thoughts on tomorrow's match.
