Nico Elvedi is feeling way better. He is back in training and he will be available for this game as it stands.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;It was also a good training week for Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Noah Okafor, so if nothing happens then they are also fully available.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;Anton Stach is still struggling a little bit with his foot injury so we will see about him. I hope it will get better in the next 48 hours but it is a bit of a question mark.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;There is also good news with Joe Rodon. He part-integrated back into team training on Wednesday, so he is now in his next step of his rehabilitation. He will need session after session following a long period out, though.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">On Dan James&#8217; fitness: &#8220;It is crucial that he stays fit and trains with consistency now. It is his second full training week and each day on the training pitch is important for his belief and his body.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;It isn&#8217;t enough to just be available at this level, you also have to earn your spots to be in the squad or on the pitch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;He was in my mind for our last game because I can see him improving day-by-day, but I decided in favour of Jean-Matteo Bahoya.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/football\/teams\/leeds-united\" class=\"ssrcss-1kfwcbf-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">You can read Daniel Farke&#8217;s full news conference notes here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Elvedi, Calvert-Lewin &amp; Okafor &#8216;available as it stands&#8217;published at 14:53 GMT 14:53 GMT Bournemouth v Leeds United (Sat,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":817674,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[59,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-817673","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-sports","tag-gb","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817673","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=817673"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817673\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/817674"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=817673"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=817673"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=817673"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
