00:00I just want to ask about Harry coming back, which is a nice thing to hear, isn't it?

00:04Because it shows how much he really bought into this place.

00:07He wasn't just a lone player here just for the season, was he?

00:09He really bought into this football club and wanted to be a part of it.

00:12Yes, we were delighted when we secured his services.

00:17He was outstanding for us in the first half of the season up to his injury.

00:23His presence was amazing, his performances were really good.

00:27His personality around the place was great.

00:29He had to, and you have to.

00:33I'm delighted with the new players that we've brought in.

00:36They've all signed into it as well and are all in.

00:40You have to be part of the group.

00:43I've kept in contact with Harry.

00:45I think we were all devastated for him because he was in real good, rich vein of form and the team were.

00:54The unfortunate injury and I'm sure he'll get back to where he was for us,

00:59which was a really good player and obviously an international player playing for his country as well.

01:04It'll be good to see Harry.

01:07He's a popular boy, so the players will be keen to see him and meet up with him as well.

01:15Is he someone that you would look to work with again in the future perhaps?

01:18Yes, of course.

01:21All you can do when you come in on loan is impress everybody and certainly impress the supporters

01:26and he certainly impressed me, me and the coaching staff and his fellow players.

01:31I think the first obstacles and hurdles he has to overcome is getting himself back onto a football pitch

01:36because Achilles injuries are not the easiest ones to deal with,

01:40especially when you're six foot whatever you are, six foot six or six foot seven.

01:46So he's got to manage that injury really well and wish him all the best in his recovery.
