He was feeling much better today. We took him out for a precaution and for the amount of minutes that he was playing but yesterday and today, he\u2019s feeling good.\u201d \u2013 Mikel Arteta on Ezri Konsa<\/p>\n Bukayo Saka (quad) remains \u201cweeks\u201d away.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re talking about, obviously, weeks. Let\u2019s see. After the international break, he\u2019s going to start hitting the pitch and start to have more activity, see how he feels. But unfortunately, he\u2019s going to be out for a while.\u201d \u2013 Mikel Arteta on Bukayo Saka<\/p>\n \u201cI don\u2019t want to push [the medical team] into too much pressure! They are doing their best to get him fit. Bukayo is desperate to get back with the team but still quite early.\u201d \u2013 Mikel Arteta on whether Bukayo Saka could be back for the games against Man City, Real Madrid and Spurs in late November\/early December<\/p>\n Max Dowman serves game two of a three-match ban, meanwhile.<\/p>\n William Saliba is, of course, now fit, and Mikel Arteta was asked about the prospect of the centre-back potentially getting a call-up for France today, despite not kicking a ball since the summer.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re in very close contact. I think they are announcing at 5pm this evening, so they have all the information. Now is about them, about Zinedine [Zidane] in this case, to get the call, and we will accept whatever it is.<\/p>\n \u201cI think it\u2019s something between them more. Willi needs minutes, as well. I know how much he loves to be in and around the national team. He has a new manager, a really exciting one as well, so whatever is decided, it\u2019s fine for us.\u201d \u2013 Mikel Arteta on William Saliba potentially getting a France call-up<\/p>\n CHELSEA<\/p>\n Emiliano Martinez (jaw) has returned to training this week and could feature, with a late assessment to come on him.<\/p>\n \u201cTomorrow, we have the last training session before Sunday. We will decide. He\u2019s training well.\u201d \u2013 Xabi Alonso on Emi Martinez<\/p>\n Aaron Anselmino and Jordan Henderson have also been back on the grass following injury and illness, respectively. <\/p>\n Jorrel Hato (unknown), Maxence Lacroix (hamstring) Reece James (knee), Jamie Gittens (ankle) and, of course, Joao Pedro (quad) remain out.<\/p>\n \u201cNo real update. For sure, we are not expecting them for tomorrow. That\u2019s clear. Let\u2019s see after these two weeks of the international break how their recovery is, the progress that they make and for sure, ahead of the Leeds game, I will have more updates \u2013 but not today.\u201d \u2013 Xabi Alonso on Maxence Lacroix and Joao Pedro<\/p>\n \u201cHe is not fit. It will take some more weeks.\u201d \u2013 Xabi Alonso on Jorrel Hato<\/p>\n Moises Caicedo is a concern with \u201cdiscomfort\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter the last game, he had little problems. We expect to check tomorrow different situations, and Moi is one of them.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a discomfort, more than the calf.\u201d \u2013 Xabi Alonso on Moises Caicedo<\/p>\n LIVERPOOL<\/p>\n The Reds have no new concerns from the midweek loss in Turkey.<\/p>\n Ryan Gravenberch (heel), who missed UEFA Champions League duty, could yet feature if he can play through the pain barrier.<\/p>\n \u201cThe only doubt we will have is Ryan. The others will be the same as we have been.<\/p>\n \u201cThe Ryan Gravenberch thing is a day-to-day thing, it\u2019s a matter of pain. Let\u2019s see if he can deal with the pain and he can help us.\u201d \u2013 Andoni Iraola on Ryan Gravenberch<\/p>\n Hugo Ekitike (Achilles), Conor Bradley (knee), Jeremie Frimpong (hamstring) and Giovanni Leoni (knee) are all still out.<\/p>\n MANCHESTER CITY<\/p>\n Enzo Maresca\u2019s press conference was short on team news but we think the City boss has a fully fit squad bar medium-term absentee Antoine Semenyo (knee).<\/p>\n There was a comment on the fitness of Nico O\u2019Reilly, who was omitted from the England squad today.<\/p>\n \u201cSince we started the season, his back [problem], if you remember, before the Coventry game. Some more problems, unfortunately. He\u2019s not 100%. In the last game, I really liked him, he was playing a very good game. This is what we need from Nico; just keep him fit because we know how good he is. And no doubt that in the future he will be again with the international team.<\/p>\n \u201cThe break is what he needs, to use the break to do the right things in terms of therapy and these kind of things, and be 100% after the international break.\u201d \u2013 Enzo Maresca on Nico O\u2019Reilly<\/p>\n Phil Foden was also overlooked by Thomas Tuchel on Friday.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s doing well, to be honest. Now, the reason why he has been left out from the international team, I don\u2019t know. But we are happy with Phil. We know that he can give much more, we know that. But slowly, slowly; I said many times, it\u2019s my duty to try to help him to be back and be one of the best.\u201d \u2013 Enzo Maresca on Phil Foden<\/p>\n There was more backing for under-fire goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, meanwhile.<\/p>\n \u201cOverall, he\u2019s good. He\u2019s quite relaxed in terms of\u2026 he recognises that he has done some mistakes. But at the same time, as I said after the last game, also he has made some good saves. So it\u2019s just a matter of balance, try to avoid mistakes, and continue to do the right things.\u201d \u2013 Enzo Maresca on Gianluigi Donnarumma<\/p>\n Maresca was also asked about knowing what his first-choice XI is.<\/p>\n \u201cIt depends a little bit on the game. We have probably 60, 65 games, so it\u2019s impossible to use always the same players. I feel quite lucky because I have many good players that I can choose which ones we need for different games.\u201d \u2013 Enzo Maresca<\/p>\n TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR<\/p>\n Lucas Bergvall (knee), Savinho (muscle) and\u00a0Mykhailo Mudryk (ankle) remain out, along with longer-term absentees Xavi Simons (knee) and Wilson Odobert (knee).<\/p>\n Tosin Adarabioyo (calf) is back in training, however.<\/p>\n Rodrigo Bentancur is newly available, too, having served a three-match suspension.<\/p>\n \u201cSavio, Bergvall, Mudryk [are unavailable]. Tosin is available; yesterday he came inside of the group.\u201d \u2013 Roberto De Zerbi<\/p>\n ASTON VILLA<\/p>\n Matty Cash will miss Aston Villa\u2019s trip to Manchester United through suspension, having picked up his fifth booking of the season last weekend.<\/p>\n Matteo Ruggeri (hamstring) and long-term absentee Amadou Onana (knee) also remain out but Aaron Wan-Bissaka (hamstring) has trained this week and could feature.<\/p>\n Villa don\u2019t seem to have any fresh issues from Tuesday\u2019s loss in Barcelona.<\/p>\n \u201cAaron is close and tomorrow we\u2019ll see if he\u2019s training normally and feeling good.<\/p>\n \u201cRuggeri is still working alone but he\u2019s progressing well.<\/p>\n \u201cOnana is long injured.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the other players are available.\u201d \u2013 Unai Emery<\/p>\n MANCHESTER UNITED<\/p>\n Carlos Baleba will be out \u201cfor a number of weeks\u201d with the hamstring injury he sustained in midweek.<\/p>\n He joins longer-term absentees Manuel Ugarte (knee) and Benjamin Sesko (calf) on the sidelines.<\/p>\n \u201cCarlos, we don\u2019t know exactly [the severity], but it\u2019ll be a number of weeks. It\u2019s definitely not this week and it won\u2019t be any time over the international break, it will be a little bit longer yet.\u201d \u2013 Michael Carrick on Carlos Baleba<\/p>\n Luke Shaw (unspecified) and Marcus Rashford (hip)\u00a0look set to miss out again, too.<\/p>\n Patrick Dorgu (hamstring) has trained this week, however, and could be involved.<\/p>\n \u201cPatrick\u2019s done a little bit of training this week, you\u2019ve seen him train with us at the start of the week. A very, very small [number of sessions], so we have got to be patient with Pat, you know. He\u2019s had a good period of time [out] now, with a couple of hamstrings. We need to really manage that, and be patient with that over the next few weeks. But he\u2019s slowly getting back with us, so we\u2019ll have to see if he can be involved at the weekend or not.\u201d \u2013 Michael Carrick on Patrick Dorgu<\/p>\n Lisandro Martinez serves a one-match ban after his sending off in Gameweek 9.<\/p>\n BOURNEMOUTH<\/p>\n Alex Toth (hamstring), Julian Araujo (thigh) and Juanlu Sanchez (ankle) are out, while Veljko Milosavljevic (knee) is with the under-21s as he builds fitness following his long spell on the sidelines. <\/p>\n Alex Scott (tendon), however, had been earmarked for a potential return in Gameweek 10, and has trained this week.<\/p>\n \u201cHe has started to train with the team. His load is still not at 100%, so we need to do the last steps and the last tests. It\u2019s about sprinting, it\u2019s about shooting. But he feels good, he trains with the team, and we are going to see until Sunday what we are going to do.\u201d \u2013 Marco Rose on Alex Scott<\/p>\n SUNDERLAND<\/p>\n Regis Le Bris says that Nordi Mukiele (concussion) should return this weekend.<\/p>\n \u201cShould be, should be.\u201d \u2013 Regis Le Bris on whether Nordi Mukiele will be available<\/p>\n Omar Alderete has to serve a one-match ban following his sending off last weekend, however.<\/p>\n Dan Ballard (hamstring), Habib Diarra\u00a0(muscle) and Romaine Mundle (knee) are medium-term absentees.<\/p>\n CRYSTAL PALACE<\/p>\n Jean-Philippe Mateta starts a three-match ban following his dismissal for serious foul play last weekend. An appeal against his red card failed.<\/p>\n Ismaila Sarr (groin), Takehiro Tomiyasu (calf) and Chadi Riad (knee) remain out, too. <\/p>\n \u201cHe will come back after the international break.\u201d \u2013 Pierre Sage on Ismaila Sarr<\/p>\n In better news, Quinten Timber (hamstring) and Jorgen Strand Larsen (ankle) returned to the squad on Thursday. Strand Larsen didn\u2019t get off the bench but is ready to start.<\/p>\n \u201cHe didn\u2019t play [on Thursday] because the scenario of the game was not positive for me to let him have the possibility to play.<\/p>\n \u201cBut I think he\u2019s able to play 60, 75 [minutes] and with the head and the stamina, maybe he can push this.\u201d \u2013 Pierre Sage on Jorgen Strand Larsen<\/p>\n Axel Disasi was mysteriously omitted from the squad in the Europa League, with reports suggesting<\/a> it was punishment for being late to a team meeting. But the centre-back is available for selection on Sunday.<\/p>\n \u201cYes.\u201d \u2013 Pierre Sage on whether Axel Disasi could be considered for selection in Gameweek 10<\/p>\n FULHAM<\/p>\n Ryan Sessegnon returns this weekend after completing a three-match ban.<\/p>\n The Cottagers have only one absentee for the visit of Newcastle United, then: Tom Cairney misses out with knee issues.<\/p>\n IPSWICH TOWN<\/p>\n Saka Lukic (groin) has trained this week, and Gary O\u2019Neil says there\u2019s \u201cno reason\u201d the midfielder couldn\u2019t start this weekend.<\/p>\n
