Nottingham Forest boss Vitor Pereira has been speaking to the media before Thursday's Europa League semi-final second leg against Aston Villa at Villa Park (20:00 BST).
Forest lead 1-0 from the first leg.
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Pereira said a late decision will be made on whether Morgan Gibbs-White will be fit to play after the Forest captain was forced off and required stitches after a clash in Monday's win at Chelsea: “We’ll see. We’ll see tomorrow [Thursday], if he’s able to play or not. It is not a question for me, it’s a decision between the player and medical department. We will have a last meeting to decide. We have a plan with him and without him.”
He added that "of course" he has a plan with or without Gibbs-White and that he thinks the midfielder has had a protective mask made in case he needs to play with that protection.
Zach Abbott, who also suffered a clash of heads during Monday's win, is set to be fit to face Villa: "I think he's OK. We spoke yesterday and I think he's in a good condition. He's available I think."
On whether Murillo could feature against on Thursday: "I don't know. I'm trying to be honest, but I don't know. We have a lot of doubts."
On the fitness of the rest of his squad, Pereira added: "There are a lot of doubts. We cannot have doubts about our belief and what we want, but about the players, I have a lot."
On how he wants his side to approach the second leg at Villa Park: "I want to see my team playing without fear, trying to score and win the game. If we are winning or losing, it is exactly the same, we will go there with the same spirit to compete. I forget about the last result. We start at 0-0 and we will fight for the best result."
Pereira was asked about the chance to take Forest into a European final: "Tomorrow is a day to enjoy and to compete. We need to prove ourselves again. This is something to be grateful for, because we'll be in a semi-final to try and reach a final, and we are there. It's a moment to show our mentality, that we are resilient and that we can compete from the first minute until the last minute in a fantastic atmosphere. I just want to be proud of my players, supporters and myself."
He wants his players to be the "best version of themselves" on Thursday: "This is a moment for my players, because they've had tough moments this season, to not feel the pressure to win this competition, but to try and be the best version of themselves."
More on mentality: "The most difficult moments of my personal life were the moments that I became stronger. When we suffer, we remember the pain. When we remember the pain, we do everything to not feel that again. This is fire within us and, sometimes in life, this is powerful, when we want to prove ourselves."
