Jenson Seelt has spoken about his relationship with Regis Le Bris and how the French boss has stuck by the defender during his lengthy injury since arriving in the summer. Seelt has been out for 10 months with an anterior cruciate ligament injury, but made his first appearance for the Under-21s last week against Benfica...
BIG SUPPORT
"The gaffer has been massively supportive. He gave me a really good feeling from the beginning. He was open to speak to, making sure I was always involved."
READY TO COMPETE
"It has been frustrating to be sidelined but also brilliant to see the team succeeding. It is only a motivation to see so many of our young players doing well. We look fresh and I'm excited to fight for my place. I will continue building my minutes after being out for so long. It's small steps but this is an exciting time."
FIRST MINUTES BACK
"It felt amazing. I have worked so hard for this moment. This is obviously just the first steps but to be back out there, doing what I love, is the main thing. The time away from the group was really challenging. I'd like to think I have always had a positive attitude, accepting that the recovery was always going to be slow. When I look back, I have worked really hard. I have proved to myself I can overcome adversity."
GRAEME MURTY ADDED:
"When you look at him, he's worked extremely hard in the gym. You can see through his conditioning. He looks strong. He looks like he's spent that time purposely, and he's been productive in the gym. He's done really well. He's been obviously challenged, he's been tested, but he's made sure that he's put himself in the best possible position to come back really well."
