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Laurent Koscielny was withdrawn midway through the first-half of yesterday’s trip to Leicester after sustaining a head injury.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 injury”.

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 Fellow forward Dwight Gayle was also withdrawn at St James’ Park after sustaining an ankle knock but is expected to be fit in time for Gameweek 4.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Similar to Chelsea’s Hazard, Romelu Lukaku has also withdrawn from international duties for Belgium due to a small injury.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 Louis van Gaal has since stated the Spaniard was withdrawn due to cramp.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Newcastle right-back Daryl Janmaat was withdrawn with just three minutes left of Saturday’s clash against Palace after picking up a knock.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Danny Rose was withdrawn midway through the second-half of yesterday’s home loss to Liverpool with a leg problem.

    Alright I'm going to the Emirates with my mates who support Arsenal. I'm wearing a navy hoody and I'll be the guy who's laughing and smirking, if you see me on the tele.

      sturridge wasn't rated as a striker before he was actually played as a striker either

      1. Davido989
        • 15 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Sturridge didn't get the chances Welbeck has had

      LEEEEEAAAAAVVVVEEEE IT

      I'm friends with him on Snapchat and was wondering what he's doing. Just seems to sit at home all day doing nothing and going to restaurants by himself

  5. Carrick Doesn't Deserv…
    • 13 Years

    Think Welbeck will surprise Arsenal fans. He got 10 goals last year in a mediocre United team and he was mostly on the wing.

    Run of games at CF for Arsenal with world-class service will inevitably improve his strike rate. His hold-up play is good and he will be more incisive than Giroud. Undoubtedly better than Sanogo

    Gutted he is leaving United actually.

    1. Exeter Gently
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      glad to see someone taking the high road, neither berating welbeck or arsenal for the potential deal. agreed that, despite sanchez/ospina/debuchy/chambers, wenger should've done better and anticipated the injuries....

    2. In Bale We Trust
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      WHO THE HELL HAS MADE THIS DECISION? Gifting Arsenal what they need to get in the top four. No idea what the club is thinking, almost like we're massively underrating our own player.

      1. Not Irish
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        He won't go to Arsenal, mate. BBC just rubbished the reports.

        1. In Bale We Trust
          • 16 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          I hope to God you're right. Would be horrible to see Welbz off. A real United player who gets the club having come through the academy. Really love the guy.

  6. Exeter Gently

    just to clarify. is the deadline tonight at 11pm GMT, or tomorrow?

    1. JT's Dog

      Tonight

    BREAKING: Danny Welbeck wants a permanent move to Arsenal NOT A LOAN. According to his agent.

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      He also said that he doesn't think Danny will go to Arsenal

  8. cramps
    • 12 Years
    11 years, 10 months ago

    i see many are transferring in Guzan. i expect the rewards will be tremendous over the next 5 gameweeks 😛

    1. Mike2795647
      • 11 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Looks like it's all the people on a WC and looking to make some £ on a cheap 2nd choice GK

      1. piquiblanco
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        Guzan is not a cheap 2nd choice GK.

        1. Mike2795647
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          He is if you want a 2nd choice to actually plays as none of the £4 mil ones do, not the best choice given that he needs to increase by 0.2 for people to make money which seems unlikely, it's because people are looking at how many points he has from the first 3 games and not the shocking fixtures coming up

          1. cramps
            • 12 Years
            11 years, 10 months ago

            ya, i'm surprised at how little planning goes into some people's transfers. they just go down the list until they hit the first player that fits their budget.

      2. cramps
        • 12 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        i guess it's possible. would be surprised if he increases by another 0.1 to actually make them any profit though

        1. Mike2795647
          • 11 Years
          11 years, 10 months ago

          Agree

        You should
        I am filling it with non English
        Then when we win it can be because of non English people, like 1966 with the Russian guy

    1. World XI

      Will be hard fr him to get a game there. Was better at Villa

    2. Walsh

      Martinez's true love.

  11. World XI

    Are people forgetting Arsenal splashed out £35 Million on Sanchez. It's not as if Arsene has done nothing. Normally it's a challenge to get him to open the check book!

    1. Wilshere Knowledge
      • 12 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      Sure, and it was a massive coup, but we are desperate in defensive midfield and defence.

  12. Siva Mohan
    • 13 Years

    Everton trying to force a loan deal for Tom Cleverley. Wages believed to be a stumbling block.

    1. MJ6987
      • 15 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      United will probably have to subsidise his wages.

    2. In Bale We Trust
      • 16 Years
      11 years, 10 months ago

      He's one of Uniteds low earners. Only on around 35k a week I believe.

      1. Siva Mohan
        • 13 Years
        11 years, 10 months ago

        on 60K I think..

        1. Podge

      Happy with that, Welbeck will do very well in the CF role at Arsenal. We should sell him to Spurs if we sell him.

      There's a good reason I don't follow Piers Morgan. Mainly because I don't want to read his crap. 🙁
