Gills physiotherapist, Steve Allen, told the official site, "Danny ran with me and did some CV work. He is fine and I don't see any problems with him coming back towards the end of the week for selection against Burton, if required.”

However, Allen is cautious and doesn't want Danny doing more harm to himself by coming back to early, "He is a couple of weeks later than expected but sometimes you have to take a step back when things don't settle down. It won't take him long to get back but he needs to condition his body back to playing.”

The experienced Steve Allen continued, "The last thing is for Danny to go back to training too early. We don't want him having three months off and then doing his hamstring so we have to be a little patient."
