Howe said of Trippier and Wilson: “Of course we don’t rush them to come back. We won’t let them risk it. But if they are fit we will use them like any other player. I think that’s the important thing. they have goals and send to-do And when they are injured it is imperative that you act on these matters.”

“Kieran, we saw him coming out on the pitch. And he rehearsed with us for one session. Callum hasn’t gone down there yet. but he is very close and is doing a lot of work with the sports science team.”

He went on to say “Ryan is already on the field. But he hadn’t rehearsed to take care of him carefully. Because hamstring injuries are quite difficult. Will we be able to play again this season? I’m not sure at this time But it wasn’t a serious injury.”
