Premier League Injury Table

      Liverpool: Jurgen Klopp said playing Fabinho in midfield (vs Chelsea) would've been great, but the absence of Nat Phillips due to a back issue meant he was unable to... The good news - Phillips should return; however, Ozan Kabak has picked up a "little problem", and it doesn't look like he's going to be ready. "It could be difficult, or the [Fulham] game could come too quick for Ozan." Ben Davies can be called upon if required... and in response to questions about Mo Salah's substitution last night. "He looked in that moment like he was feeling the intensity, really. I didn't want to risk him. That is all. That is the situation. It is really rare, I have known Mo long enough now, and he usually looks surprisingly fresh until the end."            Brighton and Hove Albion: Graham Potter reveals that Tariq Lamptey has suffered a "little setback", which keeps him out of this weekends' game. "He's seeing a specialist for a hamstring problem. It's disappointing, but we need to get to the bottom of this." Adam Webster is sidelined until after the international break, while Solly March will not play again this season. Aaron Connolly is struggling due to a back spasm which was aggravated in training on Thursday... "So, we'll see how he is tomorrow."            Burnley: Sean Dyche will have one to check on after Wednesday nights' 1-1 draw with Leicester. "We'll have to keep an eye on [Jack] Cork; he's got a tight hamstring. Robbie Brady and Berg Gudmundsson have trained well the last couple of days, but we'll have to make a call on them." Matej Vydra is expected to recover from a minor knock.             West Ham United: Team news ahead of Monday. "I think we're pretty much as we were," David Moyes said, although the Hammers boss is sweating on the fitness of his two goalkeepers. "Lukasz Fabianksi hasn't trained yet but has got a chance to play. Darren Randolph's got a problem with his hip and is doing some work in the gym. I'm hoping we'll have one of them fit by Monday night."            Southampton: Team news ahead of the trip to Bramall Lane. "We have a few players back in training," Hasenhüttl commented on Thursday. "Takumi [Minamino], Ibrahima [Diallo] and Kyle [Walker-Peters], if they are available for the game. We will have a look, but it looks good." Moussa Djenepo sustained a heavy knock on Monday night, and the Saints boss admits they must be really careful. "We have to pay attention to him because he has a big injury history since he has been here. Three games in seven days is tough. We must be careful who we take and who we rotate and how we manage the load." Except for long-term absentees - Oriol Romeu, Michael Obafemi and Will Smallbone - who won't play again this season, everyone else should be available by early April. "Theo [Walcott] was the worst of all the muscle injuries. I hope that after the international break, he will be back. He's had a good impact for us this season."            Aston Villa: Dean Smith says Jack Grealish is "unlikely" to return this weekend, but the skipper is doing better. "He’s unlikely to play. I’ve not sat down with the medical staff yet, but he was on the AlterG running yesterday. He looks pain-free now, so once I sit down with the medical staff, we’ll decide what he’s doing today." Welsey has returned to full-contact training, and the South American striker will be looking to step up his recovery over the coming weeks: "The problem is arranging fixtures for him to play. He’ll probably get involved in some Under-23 games, but that’s really good news because he’s been out for 14-15 months now." Kortney Hause should rejoin the group from next week. "Matty Cash is still recovering. He’s in rehabilitation now, and it shouldn’t be too long before he’s back with us, so that’s good news."            Manchester United: “We’re still hoping to get one or two back, of course,” Solskjaer said ahead of Sundays' derby. “We can’t promise any of them being available that weren’t available in the last game against Palace. So we’ll go with the same squad if not.” United could have up to six players missing with five injuries and David De Gea returning to Spain for the birth of his first child. "[The] best feeling you can have is to become a dad. I will give him the time he needs before he comes back. He wanted to go and be there, so not even a decision to make. There is a human being in there. I don’t know when he will be back, but it won’t be long." Dean Henderson will start in goal. "The beauty of having good players around is they’re ready to step in. Dean did really well, and he’s done really well throughout the season."             Leeds United: Marcelo Bielsa refuses to rule Kalvin Phillips, Rodrigo or Jamie Shackleton out of the game against West Ham. "It depends on how they evolve in the following days. Some players [which are] coming back from injuries will play in the [U23s] game." Gaetano Berardi made his long-awaited return for the development side on Monday after recovering from a serious knee ligament rupture. There is still no timeline for Adam Forshaw, but Bielsa insists the midfielder is giving "maximum effort" to come back and play. "He’s in a positive moment in his recovery, but that moment has to be extended without any setbacks for this to allow him to return to competitive football. He works tirelessly and continuously."             Crystal Palace: Wilfred Zaha has trained well this week, and Roy Hodgson sees no reason why he can't consider him for the game at Tottenham. "He’s missed lots of games for us in that period of time, but he’s still come back quicker than the medical department thought might be possible because of his incredible powers of recovery." Sunday comes too soon for Nathaniel Clyne, who hasn't responded as well as initially hoped. "The initial prognosis was very positive. It was only a minor strain and wouldn’t take very long at all. It’s been more than two weeks now. The problem is that the scan didn’t show any major problems, but he still feels discomfort." James McCarthy needs to be assessed after suffering a setback on his return midweek, and James McArthur is still nursing a calf injury. Mamadou Sakho and James Tomkins are no closer to returning. "I think the ones we've got fit we're hoping to keep fit, but the others we probably won't see until after the international break."            Newcastle United: Steve Bruce is hopeful that Allan Saint-Maximin and Miguel Almirón, both of whom were lost to injury last weekend, can return next month: "[It's] really frustrating and disappointing. One is a muscle injury (groin), and one is an impact injury on his knee. We're hoping that maybe after the international break, we can have them back." The club also needs to assess one-two players over the next 24 hours. "We'll see how Isaac Hayden is, he's been carrying an ankle injury for a week or two, but hopefully, he'll train today. I don't think it's anything that will keep him out of the game. Emil Krafth has got a nasty shin injury, and he is still 50-50." Federico Fernandez has trained all week, and Bruce confirms the centre-back "might" be involved. Callum Wilson is still working with the physios. "It's rest and recovery for him. Unfortunately, he's still going to be a little bit away."            Manchester City: City head into this weekend's derby with a clean bill of health following Nathan Ake's return. "He made the training sessions and felt really good. Yeah everyone is fit. It is important for us and hopefully after the international break everyone comes back really well." However, the Dutchman faces stiff competition with John Stones, Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte, all vying for a starting berth.
