Presser:

Joao –
He’s had an injection. Lets see if that does the trick. Better news than a week ago when we thought he might need an operation.

Winnall –
That’s the dilemma I’ve got. He’s come on and played a part. He’s in the reckoning. He’s got goals. Therein lies what I’ve talked about before. He’s a very good striker at this level. But he’s had a horrible injury. But touch wood he’s over that and can have a run in the team.

Onomah –
Won’t be available for Saturday. Might be back for Stoke in a couple of weeks. Be good to see him back. He’s played very well for me. IT’s not gone as well as we’d have liked since he’s been here. But he’s back running.

Van Aken-
Definitely out for the rest of the season. It’s what it is. Injured. It’s plagued the club unfortunately.

We’ve arranged a closed doors friendly next Tuesday. In terms of game-time, Hooper hasn’t played a lot but he’s putting the hard work in training so fingers crossed
