SOUNDBITE: (English) Francesco Guidolin, Swansea City head coach:

(if his team has any injuries ahead of their clash against Hull City):

"Borja Baston is not available. His injury problem is a little, but he's not available and I have to understand Leon Britton's conditions because he didn't rain in the last two days. Today he trained."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Francesco Guidolin, Swansea City head coach:

(On players returning after playing during the Summer):

"I have to manage my group well. If I can choose, I prefer to play with the players that worked with us since July 1. But, at the moment, we need a number 10, we need Gylfi (Sigurdsson)."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Francesco Guidolin, Swansea City head coach:

(On selling Andre Ayew and him getting an injury on debut for West Ham United):

"Andre (Ayew) sometimes said to me he was happy to stay here with us, but if he could have a new experience to improve his status, this was important for a player and for him as well. He decided to go to West Ham."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Francesco Guidolin, Swansea City head coach:

(On their fixture against Hull City):

"I think Hull (City) is a good, important opponent. For us, the game will be very difficult because I think they have not a lot of players, but an important group of players."
