Absolutely rubbish. He trained today.[LNB]'We are strong in all positions, so we're not really in the market for players."[LNB]Roman Pavlyuchenko, linked with a move away, could also stay, with Redknapp adding: 'His people have come over from Russia to discuss him moving but we need all our players, with five games coming up before January 1, we need everybody available.[LNB]'It's hard to keep them all happy, I accept that. Pav has been the odd one out, but I am sure his time will come if he's here. If the chairman gets an offer that's acceptable, but wer're not looking to sell him."[LNB]Redknapp also confirmed that Luka Modric, out for three months after fracturing a bone in his leg, is set to feature against Wolves tomorrow, probably on the bench. [LNB]And in the light of stories regarding players and Christmas parties, Redknapp insisted that none of his players would be allowed to celebrate the festive season.[LNB]'If I was asked about a party I would say don't have one, they're nothing but aggravation. Everyone's waiting for you to trip up, go out and get drunk. It's a long season, and this is a busy period, a working period. [LNB]'Every year there's aggro at every football club that has one. If they tell me they're having a christmas party I'll tell them they're not having one. They can enjoy themselves but not at this time of the year. One thing they don't need is to get a load of booze down their neck.'[LNB]
