It doesn't look like something will happen over a summer signing, but that doesn't mean that the solutions to the problems in the middle of the park are outside of the squad.

Thiago will be out for up to six weeks after picking up a hamstring injury in the 2-2 draw with Cottagers on the opening day of the season.

Naby Keita will be in the squad for the Monday Night Football game against Crystal Palace, despite being absent due to injury and illness.

It looks like the club won't be dipping into the transfer market for reinforcements in the middle of the field.

"If there was an opportunity, we would have done it, but I don't see it because we had a lot of conversations already and it doesn't seem like something will happen," he said.

We have injuries but I'm happy with the strength and size of my squad. There are many options for it. The transfer market only makes sense if you can find a good player.

The squad has all the other solutions. There are too many injuries. Naby will be back on Monday and Kostas will be training for the first time today.

After the game, we talked about it. He said that they had a slow start.

The best way to fight back is to have intense and concentrated start. It took too much time to switch on. We had to fight back in order to get the win.

You tell me that after 55 games? You can't play 63 games and still be superior. Before it begins, we need to be awake. You find one thing in the statistics and tell me it's the truth.
