BRADFORD City midfielder Hope Akpan hopes his injury worries are behind him as gears up to lead his side's charge up the table.

The central midfielder has just returned to action for the Bantams after he damaged a shoulder on head coach David Hopkin's first day at the club.

The former Burton man was an ever-present under Michael Collins for the first seven games but was sidelined for the subsequent six weeks.

Now he hopes to continue his comeback with a City win over Gillingham at the Priestfield Stadium tomorrow and in this video he says it is important his team-mates stay vocal and confident.
