Brentford boss Keith Andrews has been speaking to the media before Saturday's Premier League game against Fulham at the Gtech Community Stadium (12:30 BST).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Andrews confirmed Aaron Hickey will be available for the visit of the Cottagers: "He's been missing for a number of weeks, so it will be nice to get him back involved. He was close last weekend, but he's had a good week's training."
Jordan Henderson is also nearing a return: "Jordan probably back next. I'm not entirely sure. I don't particularly like putting a timescale on things because sometimes it's unrealistic. He's not too far away, maybe over the next couple of weeks."
However, Rico Henry and Vitaly Janelt remain out with hamstring and metatarsal problems respectively: "The other two just aren't ready right now, we'll see. We've got five or six weeks left of the season and hopefully they can play a part."
Mikkel Damsgaard was replaced at half-time in last weekend's draw against Everton with illness but will “come back in this week”, while Kaye Furo missed that game with “a slight groin strain” and “won’t be involved this week”.
Josh Dasilva has been "building really well behind the scenes" as he continues his recovery from a long-term knee injury: "As you can imagine, that's not an easy one for obvious reasons. He's been out for such a long time but he's been working really well. I don't want to put added pressure on him, but I'm really excited about getting him back involved because I value him hugely."
On a big west London derby: "We've got fans that work here who, from the second I came in, were very forthright about the important games. In recent seasons we haven't got the better of them and that doesn't sit well with me."
On the final six games of the season as the Bees look for a historic European finish: "Six really big games left, three at home and three away. A huge London derby tomorrow and we want to go all out to win that. Whatever happens this season we will have achieved a certain amount but I want us to achieve a lot more."
Reflecting on the 2-2 draw against the Toffees and his side's recent good form, Andrews said: "We've been very difficult to beat for a good couple of months but we want more. That's the way we are wired; we want to push and strive to try and achieve as much as we can. We felt like we dropped two points against Everton."
