Building fitness but won't start
Thiago is continuing to build his fitness and remains healthy, but is not yet in a position to start, according to manager Thomas Frank. "Igor is over the worst part and getting into training; now it's just about giving him the right load like with any player. Now he just needs to be fit enough to compete. We pushed him a bit hard to be available for the squad because we needed him. He will not start, but he had a good week of training this week."
ANALYSIS
Thiago is set to make the team sheet once again Saturday after returning from a long-term injury last outing, with the attacker still healthy. However, he has yet to build his fitness levels to a point where he can start, as he will once again only be a bench option. He hopes to at least see more than the nine minutes he saw during his return and then find a starting spot in the final two games of the season, starting in one of his five appearances this season.
