How is the fitness of your squad after international break?

TE: They all look good and ready for that last block of games that's coming up. The travel obviously for Cyle [Larin] has been a bit longer than others.

I think they're all happy to be back in here and ready to go.

Did you worry about your players' minutes in international games?

TE: I do watch, but I don't worry. I think they've all been in good shape before. I think the decision is up to the manager of their country.

It's up to how they think they want and need to use them. I think that's not for me to judge. But yeah, they look in good shape.

Have you had words with the Irish lads after World Cup losses?

TE: No, I don't need to. It's for them to close that chapter with the national team. The only thing I can do is open up the chapter for Southampton again.

That's what we've been doing. I can tell you they are ready to go.

How do you...
