Nick Cushing: "Gray is back, Santi must integrate into the team"

Nick Cushing has revealed that Tayvon Gray is back in action having missed the trip to Chicago through injury, while Santiago Rodríguez is recovering well upon his return.

“Santi arrived on Friday afternoon, then we played on Saturday,” he explained. 'He was here Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and we have another sitting tomorrow. There is plenty of time to integrate it into a new way of working. There aren't many changes, but we played five defenses at the end of the year with him in one of the front three. Now, we've changed a bit: 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3. We still have the opportunity to play three in defense – Tayvon is back – so it's not a big change for him. It's just about integrating him into the group and we're glad we had this opportunity this week."
