Dean Smith's pre-Coventry press conference begins at 9am. Updates to follow...
-----------------------------------------------------------------

DS: "John Rowe is due to see a specialist next week, they will reimage the shin and see how it is. We will get further guidance from that."

DS: "Reflecting on the transfer window, we knew there would't be massive changes. We knew the area we wanted to improve and we managed to get three good players in the midfield area in Isaac, although he hasn't played yet, Gabby and Marcelino."

DS: "We did a review of Onel's goal in training and I made sure the analysts carried through his celebration so we could all see it! He was very pleased with it and rightly so."

DS: “Winning breeds confidence. Unlike me, the players will be looking at league tables. They’ll take something from moving up to second place.”

DS: "I've reminded the players Coventry are a good team, so don't get drawn into a false sense of security.
I watched them against Preston, I watched them last season and they play some really good football."

DS: “With the season they had last year, (Robins) almost cracked a smile!”

DS: "I'm looking at getting a game in the international break where Isaac will play. He's on the grass running, so he's on the right road now."

DS: "Gabriel Sara's natural game is getting into the opposition box but he’s disciplined enough to play deeper, however."

DS: "Now that the window is closed, it will definitely help the players psychologically for all players. They know they're here until January at least and they can concentrate on their football now."

That's all from the boss.
