    Injury update...

    Shaun Maloney is expected to be fit for the Tigers’ Premier League opener against Leicester City despite missing this week’s pre-season trip to Austria.

    Maloney is currently sidelined with a groin problem but should resume training next week ahead of the clash with the Foxes.

    Harry Maguire is unlikely to feature in that game, though, with his ankle problem set to keep him out for a little while longer.

    “Shaun isn’t with us in Austria because he had a tightness in and around his groin area,” said Caretaker Manager Mike Phelan.

    “We didn’t want to risk that out here so we’ve given it a week, this week, to settle down and he should be okay after that.

    “Harry Maguire will probably be a little bit longer than that. His rehab is taking place at the moment but we can’t rush it and that is a shame because we wanted him fit and firing for the start of the season.”

    Obviously he didnt have a hernia problem...or at least he showed no sign of it in Austria. Looks like Maguire will be back in two weeks also. If not Livermore could drop back to CH...better choice than Hudd to nullify Vardy's pace.

    Best way to nullify Leicester is to not lose the ball high upfield! :emoticon-0148-yes:
