Hoolahan's absence with a thigh strain has provoked something of a conspiracy theory - outside the confines of the Colney training centre at least.
Although the Irishman was on the training field on Thursday, the City boss will wait until today before he makes a decision ahead of the game at Charlton.
“He did a bit of running yesterday so we will see how he feels this morning,” said Lambert. “I have to wait and see how he's feeling himself.
