Wolves v Everton: Liam Keen and Nathan Judah preview

Express & Star

Transcript

00:00Hello Nathan Judo, I'm here with the world reporter Mr Liam Keenly and this is take two

00:13because I think my camera's just bust so happy days but we just heard from Vitor Pereira at

00:17the big game against Everton and let's go with the big topic the topic everyone's talking about

00:21is Mr Jorgen Strand Larsson is he staying is he going is he starting is he on the bench is he

00:27going to be in the squad tell me so maybe rather conveniently there's a killies issue that Vitor

00:34is talking about that we know that Larsson has got he suggested that might keep him out potentially

00:38tomorrow as I say conveniently maybe slightly skeptical on our part I think both of us and it

00:44may be an easy decision for the club and for Vitor to take just to maybe take about the limelight with

00:49his mentality maybe not quite on the game perhaps I'm being too skeptical but that's currently what

00:54we've been told by Vitor is that he may not be available with that with that injury issue look

00:58we asked him directly as well is the player forcing a move is he refusing to play he said no we're

01:03obviously aware that he's asked the club for that move at the moment the club's answer is no you're

01:07not going anywhere we're not expecting that to change to whether Newcastle come in or not for

01:10another another bid so it's a it's a very messy situation it's difficult for Vitor to answer a

01:15bombard of questions there from us and other journalists that are well within our rights to to ask those

01:20questions um and obviously try to get the answers for for the Wolves supporters yeah look I mean if

01:24this was three or four games to go before the deadline closed then maybe it's a different different

01:30question altogether but with only one game to go before September the first maybe it might be

01:33convenient to at least not start with him even if he probably could do yeah I think so um look

01:39obviously we'll find out more once we see the the squad tomorrow um but it does feel to me that he

01:44probably isn't involved tomorrow um Larson uh which leaves Wolves with just limited options

01:49really I mean Hwang would be the one that probably comes in I think Sasha's potentially likely to still

01:54go out of those available players particularly because Wolves are trying to get forward in and

01:58they need to make a bit of space in the squad so um that may be the direction they have to go in if

02:02Larson isn't available um but look Vitor's going to try and you know play the game a little bit as

02:06well and protect the player and protect himself and the club um and that's why it's difficult to answer

02:11those kind of questions uh with the situation Wolves and Larson find themselves so your prediction

02:15now is that he won't be involved in the squad tomorrow I don't think so um it's obviously a

02:19very difficult one to say because we're having to have information that we're aware of information

02:23that Vitor is telling us with uh questions that we're putting to him and try to come to a sort of

02:28logical conclusion um I think it's very easy for them to to leave him out and give him a break

02:33particularly because the manager has specifically referenced this this injury issue as well um it feels like

02:37a very easy and convenient decision to make I would agree with that to a certain extent but

02:41at the end of the day the most important thing is getting points and when you've lost your first

02:44two games if he is available if you want to take him out the firing line my prediction would be

02:48probably on the bench because at the end of the day that's the most important thing and if you're

02:521-0 down or 1-1 and you want your best player to your best striker to come on who's just scored

02:55two goals on Tuesday night it's very difficult yeah to leave him out if his mentality is spot on

02:59and I think he'll know a lot more about that maybe in two or three hours when these players come in

03:03for training and and he speaks to Jorgen Strand Larsson so I'm not sure that's been completely cut and

03:07dried yet but we shall see let's go from front to back and let's talk about Krejci the new the

03:11new players come in and look you know big loan signing big fee if and when he he completes this

03:17small number of appearances which we're all expecting him to do I don't think he'll be

03:20involved tomorrow but in terms of his position and what he can play in this squad what do you expect him

03:25to what position do you expect him to see him in and do you expect him to start yeah look he may

03:29made the bench tomorrow potentially um but yeah we're not expecting him to to to start be surprised he's

03:34trained yesterday planning to train today as you say they're they're not training until a little

03:38bit late this afternoon as of the time of this recording um but he's a player that because you

03:43know once they do sign him permanently which we expect to be pretty uh easy to reach that those

03:47appearances with 26 million pound total package for that signing uh 30 million pound 30 million euros

03:53sorry uh it's a big fee um walls are not spending that in my opinion on a player that isn't going to

03:58play and isn't going to start and for his technical ability for the reasons of he was describing the

04:02press conference i i see him coming in at the center of defense being an option on the left of

04:06course if totti was to be unavailable for any reason and um and agpadu probably moves over um or if

04:12agpadu continues with maybe a little bit of under par form uh he replaces agpadu as well so that for

04:17me is where i see him coming in and also veto spoke about him being a midfield option which is

04:22interesting um for me probably an emergency midfield option but someone that they they can see

04:26playing there if and when it's necessary yeah which means that he's probably hoping for one more

04:30midfielder to come in before deadline day and also on deadline day and also one striker would you say

04:35two more in yeah that's that's the plan uh that's what was aiming for they're looking for a forward

04:39and a midfielder uh if larson was to go that would be another midfield there's another forward sorry on

04:43top of that um but the club is standing firm he's not going anywhere so um if we take them by their

04:47word uh larson stays which i think is more likely than not um what was we looking to bring two more in

04:53uh they're working on the forward but they do need to have a you know some movement with the

04:56the premier league squad as well in terms of homegrown and non-homegrown players so someone

05:00like asasha as i mentioned could go out if they end up wanting to bring two non-homegrown players

05:04in then they get someone else out on top of that as well um so yeah a little bit of a movement i

05:10think in this squad um over the next few days uh team news everton uh hoover looks like he probably

05:16won't be available he's trained uh yesterday a little bit and veto was a little bit uncertain about

05:20how he'll be trained today so i would suspect he probably isn't there and tatua probably plays

05:24um obviously the last situation we've spoken about otherwise it should be a fit squad provided

05:29there's no issues today in training as we say they're training this afternoon so they you know

05:33hopefully there isn't but there could be some issues there so the squad i think or team rather is

05:37probably pretty easy to pick in my opinion um sarah in goal i think tatua probably starts uh doc agbado

05:44totti back three totti back from suspension i would say wolf probably plays instead of hugo bueno albeit

05:48i think it's a very close one andre jao game is midfield i would say probably minetti and arias

05:53either side of that striker whoever it is i'm going to say probably quang yeah uh score prediction

05:58i've gone 1-1 you've gone stick with the potty prediction 2-2 desmond it's wolves against

06:02everton for the build-up on this one make sure you log on to expressionstar.com
