00:00I'm hoping that everyone came back fit and able to take part.
00:04Yes, it's very different to last season, so I'm very pleased with that.
00:08They had a lot of minutes, some very important impact as well in their games,
00:14and everybody's good.
00:15In terms of the injuries we knew about before the international break,
00:19I'm noticed that Bukayo wasn't certainly the filming part of training,
00:24he wasn't out there yesterday.
00:26Now Bukayo is out, still out, and he's trying to get back as quick as possible,
00:32but we need to respect that process.
00:34We lead training today, and the rest as usual, and Ben White as well.
00:39Ben White as well?
00:40Yes.
00:41Because he was out there yesterday?
00:42Yes, Ben is OK.
00:44In terms of Bukayo, he's out then?
00:49He's out.
00:50So, big games coming up obviously in the Champions League,
00:53and then next weekend Manchester City.
00:55Were you targeting either of those?
00:57Let's see.
00:58He's evolving really well.
01:00It was very specific work at the moment,
01:06and the moment that we increase that load, let's see how he reacts.
01:10So, he's not being ruled out as the best game in the game after that?
01:13Not yet.
01:15And with William Saliba?
01:17We did train today, so we have a decision to make whether we play him or not.
01:21Well, that's good news.
01:22Very good news, yeah.
01:23But...
01:25So, for me.
01:28That's a good song for the most, yeah?
01:31Yeah, so.
01:32Hey cool.
