Monk available for Royals clash

24 December 2009 10:45
Monk has not featured for Paulo Sousa's men since October 31 because of a calf injury but is back in training and poised to make his comeback against the Royals.[LNB]Another to return is midfielder Mark Gower who has also been out of action since the end of October with a troublesome hamstring injury.[LNB]Sousa has no other injuries or suspension problems to contend with as his men look to keep up their pursuit of second-placed West Brom.[LNB]Sousa is likely to stick to playing with a lone striker, meaning that Lee Trundle, whose loan from Bristol City ends at the end of the month, will again have to settle for a place on the bench.[LNB][LNB]
