The manager with the most unreliable injury updates in the Premier League was full of confidence when quizzed on the availability of his England World Cup pairing of Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka. “They will be available,” he insisted to assembled media on Friday, “They trained with us today, they will train tomorrow, and if they are in the condition we expect them to be in, they will be involved.”
