00:00Sunderland head coach Regis Labrice has hinted that the team that he selects to play Oxford United in Sunderland's next championship fixture may well indicate who he is thinking of selecting for Sunderland's play-off campaign in their semi-finals against a team that is yet to be determined at this stage.
00:30Many things can happen, so it's not just 11 players who will be involved in that game and also to prepare the semi-finals, I think it's a full group and we need the subs to react from different situations because football is still unpredictable, you can't anticipate a scenario, but if you have everyone available, ready to play, connected with different positions, different scenarios, different problems,
00:59it's the best output we can have. So it's not only 11 players, I repeat, it's a full group and make different decisions to manage the game properly and to try to have the best output.

01:37He's put a lot of work in, there's been so many ups and downs, there's a lot more slog for him, so just having him around the group, training every day, smiling, it's great to see.
01:50So it's nice to have him back around for his experience and his know-how and he's around the dressing room.
01:56There's no getting away from it, probably no other chances, you know, this is it. But it's a chance and I think that after Sheffield Wednesday,
