Burnley manager Sean Dyche has confirmed that Robbie Brady came through his midweek behind-closed-doors friendly in one piece - but will not be risked against Manchester City tomorrow. Brady has met a variety of setbacks on his way back to fitness from the season-ending knee injury he suffered last December. "We're not going to clear him for this week (City game), but that's a great step forward." It's good news for Martin O'Neill as the path is now clear for Brady to make a return in advance of the November internationals with Northern Ireland and Denmark.
