“We are getting players back and it won’t be too long before we are picking from a very strong and healthy group, but then tonight we’ve potentially lost a couple for the weekend,” Edwards told the Watford Observer.
“I’m not going to complain about those things. We have a good squad: I’ve said that all along and I’m not going to change my mind on that.
“I have good players to pick from. There is no excuse there.”
