🧵 Pre-match press conference thread Gameweek 18 [Thursday]

🐦 Liverpool

📢 Jurgen Klopp on injuries: "No new injury problems after the [Aston Villa] game [but it's] not that a lot would come back for the [Leicester] game..."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei #fantasypl #fplcommunity
📢 Klopp on injuries: "...apart from Ibou [Konate]. He is now training with us, he will be available now as well.

"So, positive for this moment but we know it will be a tough game."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei #fantasypl #fplcommunity
📢 Klopp on when new signing Cody Gakpo could be available: "There might be a chance for Brentford [GW19] but I think not really, to be honest. Because obviously the first of January is a bank holiday and then all the papers - which we don't have to..."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
📢 Klopp on when new signing Gakpo could be available: "...sign but some other people [do] - will have to be signed on the 2nd [before] lunchtime.

"I'm not too positive that that will happen but we will not rush it anyway. So, probably Wolves [FA Cup]."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
📢 Klopp on Gakpo: "The position he played most often is obviously the left wing, that's clear.

"But he can play different positions. He played for Holland different positions, he played for [PSV] Eindhoven different positions so that's all fine..."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
📢 Klopp on Gakpo: "...he can play all four positions up front, whatever you play.

"If you play 4-2-3-1, he can play all four positions. If you play 4-3-3, he can play the winger.

"In 4-4-2, he can play the wing and the striker position..."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
📢 Klopp on Gakpo: "...so there's so many things he can play. [And] he's still very young. He was in a really good run of form, not only in the league but at the World Cup as well. Obviously Holland had not a striker-friendly approach at the World Cup..."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
📢 Klopp on Gakpo: "...let me say it like this. So it was very well organised, difficult to play against but not creating like 50 chances a game – it was not about that.

"That's why there, in a different role where he had to defend a lot..."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
📢 Klopp on Gakpo: "...he did really well. But the position he probably would say himself he prefers to play is the left wing in a 4-3-3.

"For us it's clear, he can play the other positions. We know that and that's why he was so interesting for us."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei
🔨 West Ham

📢 David Moyes on Scamacca: "Gianluca has done a little bit of training, so we’ll see how he is and monitor him.

"He is probably lacking a little bit of match fitness, which would be my biggest worry but he has done..."

#fpl #gw18 #whufc #WhuBre #pressers
📢 Moyes on Scamacca: "...a bit of training so hopefully he will be okay."

On Aguerd: "Nayef is still coming back from illness, which we are trying to get him over. He’s had a few days training, which is helping him but..."

#fpl #gw18 #whufc #WhuBre #pressers
📢 Moyes on Aguerd: "...he has lost a bit of weight from the World Cup so we’re trying to build him back up. If I can get Nayef involved, I will but I’ll make a decision tomorrow. If you’re asking me if he’s ready, I don’t believe he’s quite ready yet."

#fpl #gw18 #whufc #WhuBre
🐝 Brentford

📢Thomas Frank on Kristoffer Ajer and Aaron Hickey: "They're not ready for selection, unfortunately.

"Ajer trained fully with us today [Thursday], so it’s very nice to have him in the training group..."

#fpl #gw18 #brentfordfc #WhuBre #pressers
📢Thomas Frank on Aaron Hickey and Ajer: "...Hickey is getting closer to full training with us, so they’re progressing well and they’re actually a little bit ahead of schedule. That's positive. The medical guys have done a top job..."

#fpl #gw18 #brentfordfc #WhuBre #pressers
📢Frank on Hickey and Ajer: "...with Hickey, we can hope for something against West Ham [in the FA Cup] but it’ll still be tough to make.

"Kristoffer, he’s more likely to make that West Ham game."

#fpl #gw18 #brentfordfc #WhuBre #pressers
📢Frank on other injuries: "[Thomas] Strakosha is getting closer, he was involved in the bigger squad against Tottenham but didn’t make it to the bench.

"Shandon [Baptiste] is still out with a groin injury..."

#fpl #gw18 #brentfordfc #WhuBre #pressers
📢Frank on other injuries: "...and Frank [Onyeka] won’t play - he’s got a hamstring injury."

#fpl #gw18 #brentfordfc #WhuBre #pressers
🌲 Nottingham Forest

📢 Steve Cooper on Morgan Gibbs-White: "We’re working with him hard and we’re trying to push him without risk of further damage, because that wouldn’t be good at all. It’s a little bit ongoing..."

#fpl #gw18 #nffc #NfoChe #pressers
📢 Cooper on Gibbs-White [calf]: "...in terms of getting him back. We’ve got a game in a few days but we’ve also got a busy period after that. We have to bear all of those things in mind."

On Lingard [hamstring]: "Jesse walked off..."

#fpl #gw18 #nffc #NfoChe #pressers
📢 Cooper on Lingard [hamstring]: "...the other night and we’re still waiting for that to settle down, in terms of the exact damage, if any at all..."

#fpl #gw18 #nffc #NfoChe #pressers
📢 Cooper on injuries: "...we’ll give everybody - those two boys [Gibbs-White and Lingard], plus some other kicks and knocks from the [Man Utd] game - the best chance we can to get them available for Chelsea..."

#fpl #gw18 #nffc #NfoChe #pressers
📢 Cooper on injuries: "...it’s something you don’t want, an injury list.

"Unfortunately Cheikhou [Kouyate] is going to be out for quite a little while with the injury he picked up at the World Cup..."

#fpl #gw18 #nffc #NfoChe #pressers
📢 Cooper on injuries: "...and those two guys [Gibbs-White and Lingard] maybe.

"And some of the longer-term ones are maybe taking a little bit longer than what we would have liked to get back - [Moussa] Niakhate, Omar Richards..."

#fpl #gw18 #nffc #NfoChe #pressers
📢 Cooper on injuries: "...and Giulian Biancone has picked up a long-term injury as well."

When speaking about January transfer window: "The reality is, Morgan Gibbs-White is injured."

📢 Jurgen Klopp on Andy Robertson: "Funnily enough, Harvey [Elliott] - before the game - injured Robbo..."

📢 Klopp on Robertson substitution: "...a little bit. In our warm-up game, he hit him with a knee at the hip so it was a dead leg.

"[Andy] could play but then at one point the muscle closed and he couldn’t play on."

#fpl #gw18 #lfc #LivLei #gw19 #BreLiv
📢 Klopp on Elliott: "Harvey got a knock, which was quite painful.

WWhen you see the situation, it is clear that it's painful but that’s it, I think."

📢 Jones on Bella-Kotchap, Lavia: "...than [Romeo] is. We’ll have to wait and see."

On availability: "We've had people away, people injured. We've probably had six or seven that haven't trained that would probably be starters."

#fpl #gw18 #saintsfc #FulSou #fantasypl #pressers
📢 Jones on defensive issues: "We have to pick a side that hopefully can defend better because one clean sheet in 17 is not good enough.

"We know there are defensive deficiencies and that's not just individuals, it’s as a team."

📢 There's going to be a real lack of team, injury news before Gameweek 19. Deadline is 4pm gmt on January 2, less than 24 hours after the final kick-off in Gameweek 18.

Most press conferences will take place immediately after full time in gw18, then embargoed...[1/x] #fpl #gw19
📢 ...a lot of managers tend to be coy anyway but in fairness, it's hard for them to know much about injuries straight after a game.

We will definitely hear from Thomas Frank and Jurgen Klopp in some capacity, with Brentford v Liverpool the first #gw19 kick-off...[2/x] #fpl
📢 ...we should also get something from Mikel Arteta, Eddie Howe [Arsenal v Newcastle], Frank Lampard, Roberto de Zerbi [Everton v Brighton], Brendan Rodgers, Marco Silva [Leicester v Fulham], Erik ten Hag, Gary O'Neil [Man Utd v Bournemouth].

📢 Guardiola asked how close Haaland was to starting XI: "...but he's on the bench, in case we need him.
