With the first international break of the season already underway, we scour the Premier League treatment rooms to assess the players who picked up injuries over the weekend action.

Arsenal
Laurent Koscielny was withdrawn midway through the first-half of yesterday’s trip to Leicester after sustaining a head injury. Arsene Wenger reckons the Frenchman “should be alright†in a week, while the Gunners boss also revealed Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (calf) and Mesut Ozil (ankle) picked up problems in the 1-1 stalemate.

Aston Villa
Skipper Ron Vlaar was subbed off due to a calf complaint in Villa’s win over Hull, Paul Lambert has confirmed.

Chelsea
Oscar was unavailable for the Blues’ trip to Everton in Saturday evening after being ruled out with an ankle problem. Eden Hazard has since pulled out of the Belgium squad with a “small injuryâ€.

Crystal Palace
Marouane Chamakh is set to be sidelined for a month with the hamstring problem picked up during the weekend draw at Newcastle. Fellow forward Dwight Gayle was also withdrawn at St James’ Park after sustaining an ankle knock but is expected to be fit in time for Gameweek 4.

Everton
Similar to Chelsea’s Hazard, Romelu Lukaku has also withdrawn from international duties for Belgium due to a small injury.

Man City
Summer signing Fernando was subbed off during the first half of Saturday’s home loss to Stoke with a groin problem, Manuel Pellegrini admitted post-match.

Man United
Initial reports suggested Juan Mata was replaced with three minutes remaining of United’s draw at Burnley with a hamstring problem. Louis van Gaal has since stated the Spaniard was withdrawn due to cramp. The Red Devils’ boss also confirmed Angel di Maria was subbed off as a precautionary measure after sustaining a knock on his calf.

Newcastle
Newcastle right-back Daryl Janmaat was withdrawn with just three minutes left of Saturday’s clash against Palace after picking up a knock.

Stoke
Peter Odemwingie was forced off with a knee problem just 20 minutes after appearing off the bench in the Potters’ win at City.

Tottenham
Danny Rose was withdrawn midway through the second-half of yesterday’s home loss to Liverpool with a leg problem.

    {Ed002's Note - Falcao was offered to four English sides after it became clear his preferred move to Real Madrid would not be possible. In summary:

    Last Wednesday in Monaco the club put a price on Falcao for a sale - with the expectation that Real Madrid (where he wishes to move to) would pay it. Real Madrid were concerned that at his age the asking price was far too high as were the wages. There were also discussions with Juventus and with Valencia. There have been approaches made to four English clubs - Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City. The situation as I understand it this morning is that:
    - Chelsea saw him as way too expensive a package and went for Remy as their first choice (Destro) was not possible.
    - Arsenal considered his age, his price, the possibility of a loan price and his wages and whilst they would like the player, seem to be trying to tie up the permanent transfer of another player instead.
    - Manchester City were not interested in buying him at the offered price but would have consider a loan to buy - but there have a major concern over his knee and they want a clause which will drastically reduce his wages and the loan fee should it turn out to be a problem.
    - Manchester United were interested but again the price and wages are an issue. On Wednesday Manchester United used a third party in discussions and I understand that third party was again involved last night in trying to broker a deal that might be acceptable. I suggested earlier that if the club want a deal done today then they will likely need to concede most of the financial negotiations - and that is what they have likely done. Subject to a medical I would expect this to go through.

    The real killer here is the wages and the ad ons and the payment to certain agents, leeches, representatives and super agents - and a commitment to buy in the future (there will be a get out clause). I cannot see that Arsenal, Chelsea, Juventus or Liverpool would get involved with him at that level financially.}


    Interesting information on the Falcao deal.

    1. Mr_Partridge
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Last choice it would seem

      1. Licky
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        He wanted Real Madrid, the world and its mother knows that, but you know there is something bogey financially, and potentially with that knee when they balk at the price.

        1. In Bale We Trust
          • 15 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          Ancelotti didn't want him. Prefers Benzema as he's better at bringing others into play i.e Bale and Ronaldo.

          1. Licky
            • 13 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            True, Falcao is an out and out striker, not very versatile.

    2. Ad4m
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      He must have got a fair way down the road with RM - I understood he tweeted something along the lens of 'Hallo Madrid' but then deleted the tweet

      1. Licky
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        I seen that yeah, United have been held over a barrel by this on no doubt though.

    3. Mílanista
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      So if this is true then numerous clubs, including Real Madrid, City and Chelsea that are all well known for crazy spending, wanted him but all saw the massive risk and backed down while Utd were the only club reckless/desperate enough to go for it. Bad omens here, as if there weren't enough from the huge outlay on their other signings since Fergie retured.

    BBC Sport ‏@BBCSport
    With 63.4% votes #LFC's Mario Balotelli has been your best buy so far this transfer window but who will he face next?

    Agree, he was a steal at this price and will open his account pretty soon I reckon

    1. Captain Shirokov
      • 14 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Both Costa and Fabregas have been better buys

      1. Robareid
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        It was a two way vote between Lukaku and Ballotelli. Now Lukaku is eliminated and they'll have Ballo face somebody else

        1. Captain Shirokov
          • 14 Years
          11 years, 3 months ago

          Oh right, yeah I'd have picked Balo too

          1. Robareid
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            They've just announced he's facing Costa in the winner stays on next, so I assume he drops out there.

            1. Captain Shirokov
              • 14 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              Surely

      2. Yome
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah Costa was much more expensive but of course he has started so well the season.
        Fabregas in the top 3 for sure

    2. Not Irish
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      We've just got Falcao in for 6m. 😀

      1. Yome

        An injury prone player 🙂

        1. Not Irish
          • 12 Years

          😆

    3. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      Siggy is the best buy! 😀

      1. Yome
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Indeed, awesome buy for us FPL managers

    5. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
      • 13 Years
      11 years, 3 months ago

      1. Yome
        • 14 Years
        11 years, 3 months ago

        Lol... Blind hasn't signed yet, and Vidal ain't going anywhere.

          Not heard of hererra. Yeah, Rojo right up there too though

          1. SENTI CAZORLA
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 3 months ago

            not heard of Herrera? I thought he was the third coming of Jesus (Falcao being the second)?

            1. Poseidon. Not arrogant, jus…
              • 13 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              Eh? Who does he play for? Has he come to utd? Great signing if so.

              1. Yome
                • 14 Years

      Aye. Get so sick of this mindset. I try to be very even handed about rating players. It's not the norm though.

          Anyone with a sensible take on United is labeled biased on here. It's ridiculous.

          Embarassed by some of the reactions to Welbeck from Arsenal fans... I know it's not Costa or Falcao but think he could be a very good signing for us.. Just what we need in a lot of ways.. Hope it works out well for him, us and England 🙂

            Great additions to the league this year.

            Alexis, Fabregas, Di Maria, Falcao(?)... And most importantly for entertainment value, Mario Balotelli 🙂

            Should be a great season!

            1. Lawrø
              • 13 Years

              Costa! And Sterling's coming of age... It's going to be a great season!

            2. SW6
              • 13 Years

              • 16 Years

              True enough but I think Suarez is better than any of those. And Bale was the best the year before and he left too unfortunately.

            "Surprising Welbeck stats per 90 mins as a goalscorer"

            Arsenal fans, look where Giroud is.

              This! Welbeck will bang in the goals for Arsenal given the opportunity

            2. Wilshere Knowledge
              • 12 Years
              11 years, 3 months ago

              That's not too bad from Giroud considering everything else he offers.

              1. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
                • 12 Years

                I rate Giroud for those reasons. But Welbeck has good hold up play and passing ability too. His finishing will improve at Arsenal. Faith/confidence from Wenger will do him the world of good

                  Yup, I'm not displeased at all with Welbeck. Although our real issues have been left unaddressed. Worrying.

            Will be looking forward to a few United fans deleting there FFS accounts at the end of the season when reality hits them. But at least you should have Europa next year.
