Press Conference: Johnson Pre-Wolves
Wednesday, December 21st 2016
City head coach Lee Johnson met with the media ahead of the Boxing Day Sky Bet Championship clash with Wolves at Molineux (3pm).
Here’s what he had to say…
- Frank Fielding and Korey Smith are both rated 50/50 for the game, with both players suffering the same rib injury
- Johnson believes the January transfer window comes at the right time for City, but points out that 28-day loans are no longer an option under new rules
- Boss reiterates need to add “one or two” new faces in January
- Head coach thanks supporters for their continued backing despite difficult recent run of results
- Johnson calls for perspective: "We're still in a better position than we were this time last year”
- Head coach believes City and Wolves are two teams similar in quality, saying the game will come down to whether his side’s youthful legs can outplay the hosts’ experience
- Johnson vows to stick to his principles and insists the playing philosophy will not change
- Head coach says City must compromise in the transfer market in order to get value for money
- Boss underlines importance of charity work ahead of the club’s visit to Children’s Hospice South West at Charlton Farm
