Injuries

The Treatment Table – Gameweek 4

As always on a Monday afternoon, we scour the Premier League treatment rooms to assess the players who picked up injuries over the weekend action.

Arsenal
Mathieu Debuchy was forced off with an ankle injury in Saturday lunchtime’s draw with City. Arsene Wenger is set to address the press later today amid fears the Frenchman could be sidelined for months.

Burnley
The Clarets’ forward Danny Ings was subbed off with a hamstring problem in the weekend draw at Palace, while Matty Taylor missed out altogether due to injury, allowing George Boyd to make his debut on the left of midfield.

Chelsea
Didier Drogba missed the Blues’ home win over Swansea after injuring an ankle during training.

Crystal Palace
Neil Warnock confirmed Joe Ledley sustained a hip injury in the Palace dugout and was unable to take to the field against Burnley. The Palace boss also revealed Wilfried Zaha was lucky to make the match after picking up an ankle injury in training.

Everton
Sylvain Distin missed the Toffees’ win at West Brom due to a dead leg, though Roberto Martinez confirmed earlier today that the defender is on course to feature against Wolfsburg in the Europa League on Thursday.

Leicester
Foxes number one Kasper Schmeichel missed Saturday’s win at Stoke after sustaining a minor knee problem on international duty with Denmark.

Stoke
The Potters’ left-back Erik Pieters was forced off with an unspecified injury in the latter stages of Saturday’s home loss to Leicester.

Swansea
Jordi Amat is set for knee scans after picking up a problem in the weekend loss to Chelsea – the defender left Stamford Brigde with his leg in a brace.

Tottenham
Jan Vertonghen was omitted from the weekend trip to Sunderland after picking up a minor muscle injury.

West Brom
Stephane Sessegnon was ruled out of the weekend home loss to Everton after sustaining an eye injury in training.

    Baring something unusual from Chester, my bet is won 😀

    • 10 Years
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Wouldn't be surprised to see Hull stick with 4-4-2... a lot more quality in midfield and up front now.

    • 13 Years
    10 years, 8 days ago

    Mannone
    Clyne Koscielny Fonte
    Sigurdsson Ramsey Fabregas Schurrle
    Aguero Dzeko Rooney

    Subs- Hamer, Hutton, Moore, Marney

    2FT's and £0 in the bank... what moves should I be making this week??

    Players on my ship list are Schurrle and Dzeko in particular due to their lack of game time

    1. AWOL-Ekotto
      • 13 Years
      10 years, 8 days ago

      dzeko -> naismith/ulloa
      rooney -> costa
      schurrle -> di maria
      ?

    It was going to be boring watching the game hoping for a Hull clean sheet. Now it will be EXTRA boring watching the game hoping Chester doesn't come on. Lol.

    1. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐
      • 14 Years

      at least you can sit back and enjoy the game to some extent, no worries of hoping for a clean sheet

        WHM are taking part in this game.

      • 10 Years
      10 years, 8 days ago

      Hull often seem to make defensive subs.

      1. Pepin - RIP Absinthe
        • 14 Years
        10 years, 8 days ago

        I know, that worries me. He switches formations a lot, that chunky gaffer.

      10 years, 8 days ago

      i feel you're pain

      Chester made me so happy week one and now a red card and then a bench cameo home to West Ham. He was meant to save my gameweek! haha 🙁

        • 15 Years
        10 years, 8 days ago

      Hi All!

      I've just pushed the button on a wildcard and my mind is racing with the possibilities!

      Anyone any thoughts? Current selection:

      Green/Foster

      Ferdinand/Duff/Taylor/Hutton/Wisdom
      Di Maria/Fan/Sanchez/chadli/Sneiderlin
      Costa/Aguero/Naismith

      Would prefare better defence but damn money is not n the way given the MIDs/strikers...

      If this was your wildcard...?!
