David Moyes commented. "It's a credit to our medical and physio staff that we've got virtually a clean bill of health at just the time of the season when we need everyone."
"Nick and Tony are coming on and they should be able to start training in the middle of the week. Duncan is due to start training too. He has just completed an extra week of fitness work and Tobias will join in as well." He added: "Come midweek we will hopefully have everybody back for training, probably not fit for selection yet because they will need training and games."
It is likely that all four players will be available for first team selection at some point during Febuary.
