Carlisle United’s Callum Guy set to be back in contention

Club captain Callum Guy could be in contention for Carlisle United at Leyton Orient on Saturday.

Guy, an important member of the squad, has been back in training this week after being forced off at Salford City just over a fortnight ago.

He had felt a tightening of a muscle in the back of his leg, and has only just been allowed to do some training with the team.

Manager Keith Millen said: “Callum might be available for the weekend. It’s still early days, but he’s done some work this week.

“He didn’t train with us on Tuesday but he’s looking a lot better medically.”

There was another plus on the injury front when Millen revealed that Brennan Dickenson has seen the surgeon this week and had the news that he hopefully doesn’t need surgery.

The United boss said: “We can step up his treatment and his work so he can hopefully get himself fit again.

“I’ve not really sat down with him yet, but as far as I know they’ve said he can build up his training. Hopefully he’ll get no reaction and get some confidence in his knee.

“I don’t know any further than that. As each day goes by, I’ll be guided as he does his work, but it’s good that he doesn’t have to go and see the surgeon again.”

But Millen still has two right-backs missing through injury with recent signing Joel Senior facing a lengthy absence.

He said: “When you lose your two main right backs with bad injuries it isn’t good.

“Kelvin is still out with his ankle and we’re gutted for Joel who is due to have his surgery in a couple of weeks, so fingers crossed that goes well for him.

“That gives me a decision to make when it comes to that position. I always look at the opposition and what they do well, and what weaknesses they’ve got, as well as the balance of the team.

“I don’t just look at one individual, it’s about having the right balance and partnerships. Whether we go to a back four or stay with the back five, it’s about the players I’ve got available and the opposition.

“There’s a lot that goes into each game, and it’s about getting the best out of each individual and trying to play them in the position that is going to get the best out of them.”
