Press news in...

⏰ This week's press conference will take place at 5️⃣pm today!
--------------------------------------------------------------

DW: (on Sarg) "He is now in London seeing the consultant at this time, we'll know more tonight or tomorrow."

DW: "All the guys who played plus Kenny and Gibbo are available, no further injuries. Onel is back with the fitness guys but still can't grab and push without issue so we'll use the international break to build up our fitness, the same for some others."

DW: (on transfers) "I know this is the last exciting answer which you like, but I can't tell you anything. Everything I tell you now could be untrue in two hours."

DW: (on Duffy call up) "He really deserved it after what he has shown. He is a top leader, a winner and a very good defender. He has an aura, he is a great character and he loves to play football. He does not like to rest, and Ireland can be very happy that he's back on track. I had a lot of trust and belief in him when we signed him - that he could be a top signing for us, and I think he has shown that."

DW: (on Bristol tie) "I was very satisfied with the performance, and we deserved the win. But it's in the past, and it's all about looking forward to the next game.

DW: (on Nunez) "From my point of view, it's not a question of doubt that he can show it at Championship level. He played very well, less turnovers, he took care of the ball. Set up the goal and ran his socks off, over 13km.""

DW: "Pzremy had anything but luck in the last 10 months, and this pre-season he was completely fit. Credit to our fitness department - he has played a lot of competitive minutes. He's got a goal and an assist, and I'm happy that he is not called up for Poland, because he really needs to rest in this break. Then he will attack the next seven games. The guys are not stupid, they see how their competitors play, and they know that if they get their chance they have to use it."

DW: "Nacho has done great in training, and he deserves a start, but others have as well."

DW: "It is so, so important for us to finish on a high before we go into this break."

DW: "On Saturday it's fight first, then we have to make sure we make good decisions with the ball. I have belief in my players and the supporters that they'll give everything to win. Rotherham at home and Rotherham away are two different teams. At home, they have energy, physicality, and brave as well. I'm happy to hear our away end is sold out, we'll need them."

DW: "It's a direct and physical side, we'll need to be ready for the fight, the hard yards. But we have to make sure we play football in the right spaces. We know everything about them but... it's about us."

DW: (on the cup draw) "Could be worse, could be better. I can't influence it but I'll take it. Everyone would prefer to play at home but we can't influence that."

DW on Jordan Hugill: "I wish him all the best, apart from Saturday. Rotherham are over the moon that they signed him, and he has done a great job for them. He is physical and hard-working, which I like. Jordan fits their team very well."
