Ange on Davies' injury
Ben, that was a week ago and it’s not as bad as we thought. There is a chance he’ll be back, hopefully, before the new year. So, that was positive. Again, initially we were a bit worried but you need to give it a week to settle down. The latest information I got this morning that it’s nowhere near as bad as we thought it was and hopefully a quicker turnaround.
Ange on Romero, Van de Ven and injury news heading into this weekend
No, mate. Obviously guys get injured and without getting too technical, you need to let the injury settle down before you get a real prognosis so it will probably be next week some time with Micky and Cristian. Everyone got through last night, so they are all good to go. Biss is suspended this weekend, so he’ll miss out.
Ange on Southampton's performances this season
Not just at home but in all the games. They've played some pretty exciting football against good teams. Russell will just be frustrated they've not sustained it or got rewards for it.
Ange on playing youngsters in such a difficult situation
You don't want to by design but it will bear fruit for us for sure.
Ange on Werner
Last night wasn't about Timo Werner, it's the situation we're in. There are other players who could also give more to what we were trying to do last night. I just felt last night because he hasn't played a lot there should have been some freshness around him.
Ange on Werner
We've got a limited number of players. It's a great challenge. I want people who are up for that challenge.
Ange on those Werner comments
No. It wasn’t criticism, it was assessment. I’m not going to go around worrying about bruised egos. If somebody who’s fit feels he needs something extra in this moment, he’s probably not the right type.
