John Carver: “Papiss Cisse has got a problem with his knee, but it’s not a big problem.
“It was something that we were going to have to do anyway, maintenance that was going to be needed.
“He had a screw in his knee and they have just removed the screw, so that’s been sorted.
“I don’t think his knee is a big issue, and I have said that from day one, really.
“We have always used this word ‘maintenance’, and all it is is maintenance with him, just making sure that everything is right.
“There was a part of the process where we were going to have to do this maintenance on his knee anyway because of the operation he had in the past.
“If anything good has come out of it, it’s actually the fact that we can do it now, in a strange way.”
