Press news in...

DF: There were a few hits in the game, it was intense and aggressive but all the players who were involved in the game [Wycombe] are available for tomorrow.

DF: Alex Tettey and Todd Cantwell are also available for tomorrow. Ben Marshall was out for 10 or 11 days with illness and he wasn't involved in a few games before the international break. So for six or seven weeks he's been without a game. It is important for him to get some minutes and be fully fit, so he is involved with the U-23s today.

DF: I hope to have Onel back the middle of next week, so he might be an option for Stoke. We have to decide from day-to-day and he's done some running on the pitch and has looked good.

DF: It's important when you are on a run that you feel this joy and are in a good mood so you don't lose motivation. It is important that you feel the joy when you are successful. But we know how close all the games are and we have both feet on the ground.

DF: Wigan have started well so they will be in a good mood and our players know that you have to fight to win each and every game in the Championship.

DF: When you join a team in the Championship playing before in a different country he has to adapt a bit to the different style. But I think Emi has handled it pretty well from the start. From game to game we have given him more minutes in the last weeks.

DF: It is important for him to have self-confidence rather than freshness. So we got the feeling it was important he had a good game with some assists.

Additional:

Daniel Farke has no new injury concerns ahead of the visit of Wigan Athletic to Carrow Road this Saturday (3pm).

The match this weekend is City's fifth in just 14 days but the Canaries Head Coach says everyone who featured on Tuesday at Wycombe is available for selection.

Alex Tettey and Todd Cantwell were both left out of the match at Adams Park but Farke said they are both available for selection this weekend.

"Alex Tettey had a swollen knee after QPR, he has had lots of load recently. But he's available for tomorrow," he said.

"Todd had a dead leg after QPR. We didn't want to risk him. But he's been back in team training since Wednesday and therefore available for tomorrow."

Ben Marshall has missed all action since the international break through illness and he racked up some important minutes for the Under-23s on Friday.

"Ben has missed a lot of football over the past 6-7 weeks. It was important for him to get some minutes and be fully fit, like Ivo Pinto last week. So we felt it was important he got some minutes for the Under-23s.

To finish, Farke issued updates on the fitness of Kenny McLean and Onel Hernandez.

"Kenny is still not back in team training but Onel is making good progress in his individual rehab. We hope to have him back for the middle of next week, perhaps back for Stoke [next Saturday].

"He's been doing some interval running but now needs to work on change of direction and high-speed running and then obviously work with the ball."
