Dean Smith’s press conference ahead of Preston will commence at 9️⃣am
----------------------------------------------------------

DS: "No fresh concerns since Tuesday. Todd trained yesterday, so he is available.”

DS: "We are respectful of the team we are coming up against. I hope they’ll come out and attack us, but I’m not sure they will.”

DS: “We will be guided by the lad and the rehab staff. He is on the grass and striking balls, so he’s getting closer to a return to training.”

DS "“I won’t be putting anymore timelines on Isaac. He is with the rehab team like Dimi.”

DS: (Nunez) “It wasn’t his best game, Nacho. He should have held his ground and made it tougher for Hendrick to get past him. He is certainly learning.”

DS: “Honestly, no. I don’t do outside noise. It’s not about me, it’s about we. If anyone has seen the teams I’ve made before, I make attacking teams.”

DS: “Preston keep two upfront, so no. I think they’ve been one of the better teams in the league. Their performances have been good.”

DS: “Jonny Rowe hasn’t trained yet. Tony Springett is off ill”

DS: (John Terry) “It was just a catch-up. He wanted to come see me and Shakey. He is going to come to Colney to watch training soon.”

That concludes Dean Smith’s press conference for today.
