Q: Nicolas Kuhn – there was a photograph of him in training this morning?

Brendan Rodgers:  “Yes, he done it the other day actually. He jumped for a header and he got five stitches just down below his eye. He’s fit to play. He’s trained well this week so he’ll have the warrior spirit for tomorrow.”

Q: Is Darren O’Dea possibly leaving to Swansea?

Brendan Rodgers:  “I spoke to Darren yesterday on that. He came to see me and get my thoughts on what that would be, what it would look like. Obviously I know Swansea is a club in the city, better than most. So yes, I think there may well be a possibility of him to go as a coach I think. In his heart, he still sees himself as that. Probably the role he’s in now he’d probably only do that at a club like Celtic. But I think in his heart is in coaching and maybe the possibility to manage later on. So yes, he just asked my opinion on it. So we’ll see what happens on that.”
