Ange on if Solanke injury timeframe changes anything

All those things are known, nothing's changed in the last 24 hours. We kind of knew with Dom probably a few days back and we've had a press conference in the meantime. All these things are known and nothing has changed the last 24 hours that changes that part of it.

Ange on if Romero will be involved in the squad this weekend

No. Like I said, we got him back training. Him and Micky are the next cabs off the rank in terms of the long-term ones. They've still got a bit to do in terms of getting some training into them with the team. Obviously we haven't been training a lot and because the other day was sort of low tempo session, it was just good to get him involved, not just for him but the players involved because they need a bit of help and encouragement and Cuti training with them gives them a big lift. Micky's not too far away.
