We hope we will see him before the worldwide split, but there’s no warranty. Sven has a knee difficulty, and I do not think we’ll see him in advance of the worldwide break. Hopefully, we’ll see him really promptly afterwards.
‘You can add Joe Willock to that record, so it is a tricky second for us injury clever. It’s that kind of season for us, with the bodily demands we’re likely to experience.
