Highlights from Farke's press conference:

Krul is fine.

Fährmann is fit.

Amadou is touch and go.

Cantwell has a hamstring issue, also touch and go.

Hernandez is at the hospital as his partner is in labour. He won't travel with the team but he could do a Russell Martin and get there in time for kick off.

Vrancic should be back fo Watford next week.

Oh, and both Hanley and Zimmermann should be back after the international break. That's a huge plus.

Expect Famewo on the bench then. No Argos would be a huge blow.

There are doubts over Cantwell and Amadou for the trip to Brighton. Mario Vrancic is still out but could return for Watford (h). #ncfc Onel Hernandez won’t travel with the squad as baby Hernandez could be arriving soon. Farke is hopeful he could join up in time for the match

 

Farke has joked he might send one of the injured players, possibly Zimmermann, to take over from Onel at the hospital. I think it was a joke anyway....

“Sometimes we have to accept there are bigger things than football, it is not like I call the police to bring him to the training pitch,” DF jokes, still “pretty confident” that Hernandez will be okay to travel, all being well, so they have a travel plan in place for him

 

In each and every game we are the underdog,” Farke continues, saying that he hopes that when Hanley and Zimmermann are back that will allow #NCFC to attack games more.

 

DF also confirms Buendia is fit, despite limping through to full-time v Man Utd, Patrick Roberts fit and available too.

 

Cantwell a doubt, hamstring issue earlier in the week. Amadou similarly has needed knee treatment but trained today and could be okay.

 

Krul fit and trained the last two days after over-stretching his knee, Fahrmann also travels after full training.

 

Finally when questioned re Christoph - Chris Goreham said

Hoping he’ll be back soon. I get the impression they will be thrilled if he’s back in Premier League action this side of Christmas.

So Mrs McLean has just had a baby, and Mrs Hernandez is about to have one. What was happening nine months ago?

Vrancic was so busy scoring he didn't provide any protection for the rest of the midfield.
