Dette stemmer ikke. Det har nettopp vært pre match pressekonferanse og der sa TC at Forshaw hadde en småskade.
Pressekonferansen:
As per, for those interested:
Adam Pope:
Leeds United press conference at 12.30 pm with Thomas Christiansen & Liam Cooper ahead of Millwall. #lufc
“I will not accept that any more†. Leeds United head coach Thomas Christiansen on the ill discipline shown by his players on the field which has seen unnecessary red cards & yellow cards. #lufc
TEAM NEWS: Laurens De Bock in squad v Millwall but not Adam Forshaw who Christiansen says needs more time. Striker Caleb Ekuban (foot) will be out for 2-3 more weeks. #lufc
TEAM NEWS: Adam Forshaw has a “small problem†so is not fit for tomorrow. Ronaldo Vieira (knee) is fit.
Phil Hay:
Christiansen very strong on discipline today. Said he’s spoken to players, as a group and individually, to say enough is enough with petulant/avoidable red and yellow cards. #lufc
No Forshaw in the squad tomorrow. TC says he’s got minor injury problems. De Bock will be involved, as will Ronaldo Vieira.
TC said a central midfielder wasn’t a priority in this window but a combination of bans and Forshaw becoming available convinced Leeds to sign him. #lufc
Cooper also said the players are aware of the need to keep a better disciplinary record. On Millwall, said Leeds “owe them one†after their defeat at the New Den in September. #lufc
TC non-commital on the future of Mateusz Klich. “We will see.†TC didn’t say this but there’s foreign interest in Klich and he’s likely to go on loan.

Liam Cooper interview:
Cooper on lack of goals
We have confidence in every player and that will come, it's not like we are not creating chances. I am not worried at all.
Cooper on Toby Nye
I've met Toby a few times and he is a lovely little boy. Always smiling. He is always in the back of our minds. We are so pleased we have managed to raise the money for him.
Cooper on his own happiness
I am in a really good place at the minute. I think the captaincy has really brought a sense of pride out of me. But it's not just me, there's a lot of leaders in there.
Cooper on the new recruits
Andrea has said he is only going to bring in players that are going to improve us and he has definitely done that.
Cooper on discipline
We are not a bad group or a horrible group, we are an honest group. Both lads have apologised and we have got to move on from that. We are not a dirty group and it's about finding a balance.
Cooper on Millwall
Going into the Millwall game at their place, it's a tough place to go and a hostile environment. We definitely owe them one. It's a massive game for us and we really need the three points. We've made a pact and we are going to take each game as it comes. The next game is the biggest game and it's one we want to win.
Cooper on De Bock and Forshaw
They have both settled in well and they are training really well. Hopefully they can bring a lot of improvement to our team. I have played against Adam before and he is a very good player
Cooper on De Bock and Forshaw again
Laurens looks like a very attacking left back and Adam's experience is massive for us. He can be someone for the younger lads to look up to
TC:
TC on the new signings
It's very positive that the club has brought these two players in to the team.
TC on Millwall
We have to come back. I believe that the last few games have not been so bad. Against Ipswich we made the performance that we expected and we deserved better
TC on discipline - strong words
I will not accept this situation. The discipline has to be the most important because at the end of the season if we need three or four more points then we are going to be annoyed. It's not acceptable and I will not permit that any more. From that we close that page and we look positive to the rest of the games.
TC on possibility of further signings
If somebody will come more we will see but now we focus on the players we have. Also a reminder that we have signed 15 players since June so we need to give some trust to them.
Team news
We have only one player out and this is Ekuban. He will still have two or three weeks. Laurens will be in the squad and Adam will need a little bit more time.
TC on Klich
We will see what will happen.
