Lee Johnson was delighted with the 3-0 victory over Doncaster, but also took the time to discuss injuries, Covid and the transfer window…
COVID
“Aiden O'Brien was out today after testing positive. We've also had Jordan Willis and Ellis Taylor testing positive. It is tricky because you don't know what your team is going to be. I hardly slept last night because all I could think about was people mixing, the lateral flows etc. We've just to be agile and the good thing is we have got players who can be tactically flexible.”
WINCHESTER’S INJURY
“He twisted yesterday in training, it was pretty much the last action of the day. Something happened in the sort of bottom of his calf, top of his Achilles, we're hoping it's not too bad. The bruise has come out pretty quickly, he might even have taken a knock without realising. I don't expect that one to be a long one.”
WINDOW
“It's a disaster, we're going to need help in January. We've got ourselves in a position where we're in the coattails of the leader, with Wigan obviously having games in hand. There's big expectations here and we're going to need to produce. I still think we've got another gear in us, I think we can hit top gear by adding quality (in January), getting players back, and keep hammering down on the philosophy. When we played simply today, which is the hardest thing to do, we looked a really good side.”
