“I think tomorrow might be a little bit too early but certainly he’s going to be close for next week. He’s not trained with us yet but he’s certainly building up to that moment, we’re happy with where he is at and I think mentally he’s getting there, ready to play.” – Eddie Howe on Nick Pope
NOTTINGHAM FOREST
RULED OUT: Ibrahima Sangare (hamstring)
“They were tired and they are recovering now, it was a very intense game but they are okay, they are okay. We play good, we compete very well. Now it’s a moment to recover. Many of them, in terms of distance and intensity, were higher than ever, so that says that we have to be careful and prepare the next one.
“The same dilemma as I have always. Every game, trying to figure out the best decisions and solutions for the game. We have almost every player available, a healthy squad, so the same – but I think in terms of time, we have time to recover well.” – Nuno Espirito Santo
