Le Bris on team fitness, 'emotions' and Lech Poznan

Sunderland boss Regis le Bris has been speaking to the media before Thursday's Europa League game against Lech Poznan at Enea Stadion (kick-off 17:45 BST).

Here are the key lines from his news conference:

  • No sidelined players will recover in time for Thursday's European tie in Poland, but striker Brian Brobbey "should be ready" for Sunday's game against Leeds.

  • Le Bris implied there will be squad rotation like there was against Torreense last week as it's "important to balance the workload" with the Premier League.

  • On the squad reaction to losing to Bournemouth: "When we lose games, we are not happy. This team has emotions and cares. It is important to work together and be tough with each other, telling the truth when necessary."

  • He said "the next game is always the most important one" in response to whether the match against Leeds is their main focus given they have six points in Europe already.

  • On opponents Lech Poznan: "They are a good team, so we expect a good game. They have a clear style of play. We know the Premier League and the players more or less, so here is a new experience."
