Press news in...

Dean Smith will be speaking to the media at 9am to preview our game at Sunderland.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

DS: “I wanted to get through the round, but we didn’t create enough opportunities. I’m glad it gave the young players some minutes.”

DS: “I thought Idah and Pukki livened us up when they came on and showed glimpses of their relationship from last season.”

DS: “Sam’s numbers were high after 45 minutes so we felt it was the right time to bring him off.”

DS: “There are lots of plates spinning and possibilities of ins and outs at every club, whether they’re loans or permanent signings.”

DS: “The process for a left-back is still ongoing. We have six days left in the window.”

DS: “Very rarely have I been sat in an office while the clock is ticking (transfer deadline day). I’m usually tucked up in bed. We like to get our business done before.”

DS: “I told you Andy had an ankle injury, but he came in on Monday morning saying he wanted to train, and medically he was okay to. I love the attitude of the lad.”

DS: “I can see a battle between Tim and Angus throughout the season for the No.1 jersey.”

DS: “Sunderland are a big enough club to be up there in the table.”

Kenny McLean joked with Max Aarons yesterday that he’s only six years away from a testimonial. Smith is impressed with the way he handles transfer speculation.

That concludes today’s press conference.
