Regis Le Bris has provided what has been one of our most positive injury updates this season, with the likes of Alan Browne, Romaine Mundle and Tommy Watson all coming closer to recovery. Le Bris also spoke on deadline day signing, Jayden Danns, and what the next steps in his recovery are.
JAYDEN DANNS
“We don't know at the moment with Jayden. We probably have to take it week by week. He's still a very young player and it's fair to say that we have to protect this player. So, we will work with Liverpool to find the right moment to bring him into the side.”
SQUAD REGAINING STRENGTH
“Browney is available now, he is taking part in full training. Romaine should be involved (in training) by the end of the week, probably. Tommy should be around by the end of next week. Jenson (Seelt) is ready to play, so we have many players available.”
The Danns news is a shame, and without a specific time frame we don't know when we can expect to see him in red and white. The return of Alan Browne mustn't be overshadowed by the pending return of Romaine Mundle and Tommy Watson either. Despite strengthening our midfield with Enzo Le Fee in the winter transfer window, and Salis Abdul Samed returning from injury, Browne's experience in this division as we approach the run in will be vital. Then of course Mundle and Watson returning soon is exciting as both players were in fine form before facing time on the sidelines.
All of this news provides RLB with somewhat of a headache in terms of putting a side out. If Mundle was put back into the starting 11, and Le Fee was moved into his natural role, then one of our key midfielders this season would have to drop to the bench. Although I'm sure our footballing scientist Regis will have this all thought out.
