SOUTHEND United manager Mark Molesley believes Harry Kewell will have his Oldham Athletic well organised at Roots Hall on Tuesday night - despite not being able to attend.
Kewell will miss the match after testing positive for coronavirus.
But Molesley is certain Kewell will be working hard from home
"I’m sorry to hear their manager is ill and I wish him a speedy recovery but I’m sure he’s still working very hard at home," said Molesley.
"Everything is at the click of a button now and I’m sure he’s still very involved so I don’t see that being an advantage for us.
"We just have to focus on ourselves and keep pushing the positives and keep believing because sooner or later we will turn the tide.
