Jack Wilshere is a big doubt for Arsenal’s home clash with Burnley, who welcome back Dean Marney into midfield. West Ham’s Diafra Sakho is in with a chance of lining up against the Potters. Brendan Rodgers rules out Jose Enrique against Newcastle, who themselves could be without forward Papiss Cisse. Sadio Mane is set to return to training as he bids to prove his fitness ahead of Southampton’s KC clash, while the FA rescind Federico Fernandez’s three-match ban ahead of Swansea’s trip to Everton.

Arsene Wenger is “quite confident” Kieran Gibbs will overcome a hip problem in time for tomorrow’s visit of Burnley. The Gunners boss expects Jack Wilshere to miss out with a “very, very short-term” knee problem, whilst he also went on to confirm Theo Walcott is “not completely ready” and won’t start against the Clarets.

Sam Allardyce has revealed that Diafra Sakho is “touch and go” for the weekend, after injuring his shoulder during the win over Man City. Allardyce confirmed the Hammers will monitor the forward’s condition before Saturday, whilst James Tomkins and Matt Jarvis have recovered from their injuries and will make a return to the squad.

Jose Enrique will miss the reunion against former club Newcastle, with Brendan Rodgers confirming that the defender has an issue with his knee. The Reds boss has also conceded he expects Daniel Sturridge to remain sidelined until after the next international break, before talking up Fabio Borini’s prospects ahead of the Magpies clash and also hinting at a change of tactics for the weekend, after mainly operating with a 4-2-3-1 in Sturridge’s absence.

Newcastle boss Alan Pardew has rated Papiss Cisse “touch and go” as the striker bids to overcome a knee problem in time for the Liverpool clash.

Reports in the local press indicate David Silva will miss the next three weeks with a knee problem sustained against Newcastle in midweek. Manuel Pellegrini is expected to clarify the situation in today’s lunchtime press conference.

Sean Dyche has received a boost ahead of the trip to the Emirates, with news that midfielder Dean Marney is back in contention to face the Gunners after recovering from injury.

Sadio Mane is a doubt to face Hull as he bids to overcome an ankle injury picked up last week. Ronald Koeman has announced that the winger is expected to be part of the travelling squad on Saturday, should he come through training this morning.

Federico Fernandez will be available for Swansea’s trip to Goodison after successfully appealing the red card he received in the midweek cup exit to Liverpool. Elsewhere, midfielders Gylfi Sigurdsson and Ki Sung-Yeung are both back in training ahead of the Toffees test

      Arsenal were terrible last week. His 2 goals were gifts. I couldnt be happier that people are bringing him in. Captaining him is even better but they looked a mess and I'm not touching them until Wally is up and running.

      PS Welbeck is just awful

          No matter who you support if you watched the Sunderland game you must agree. Welbeck in principle seems like an amazing fantasy prospect but will never return imo. And soon he will be only getting 10-20 min cameos

          Carzola was embarrassing last week constantly moaning and not tracking back. His heart just isnt in it. Ramsey and Jack will make a big difference. Chambers was very good as was Monreal

            I watched the game, just because you have one bad game doesn't mean your heart isn't in it.

            Welbeck is an improving player who is finally being given a chance in the position he likes.

            Your lack of patience and knowledge is why people get on players backs.

              One bad game... I wont agree but then again I dont watch every game so I could be wrong.

              Welbeck will never score a hat full of goals he just isnt prolific. When Giroud returns where is he going to fit in? I'll tell you where between the 75th - 90th minute

            Yes welbeck has been poor -he's a hold up man not a striker -with walcott to play with i suspect he might motor in december before giroud returns

        Arsenal have been terrible this season but that hasn't stopped Sanchez to 3 double figure hauls this season. He would be the only Arsenal player i would consider long term. And by the way, Sanchez forced the error for the 2 goals against Sunderland. He's the only player who continue to run after the ball even when it is a loss cause. Bit like Saurez

        PS: Yes Welback is truly awful

        Giroud is a straight swap with Welbeck, but when Özil is back he´ll play in the hole with Wilshere to drop or does Sánchez move there and Özil goes to the wing?

          I think Sanchez only played in the hole because Wilshere and Ozil were both missing. Only time Ozil would be on the wing is in a 4-1-4-1, in which case one of Walcott, Giroud and Sanchez would drop out but we are yet to see if Wenger will move back to a 4-2-3-1 when everyones fit, as he should do.

            Never made any sense to me playing Özil on the wing, but seen it done a few times, but now with 2 fast wingers in the equation would be a bit madness to play Özil on the wing, Ox was left out of this chat but i guess like me you see him as a super-sub?

              He's playing well at the moment but when Sanchez and Walcott are fully fit there isn't a place for him on the wings. He can play CM, CAM, RM and LM though so should get plenty of game time if (when) injuries hit.

      Whereas this is a thoroughly worthwhile contribution.

      Yes, some of the posts aren't particularly helpful (probably including most of my own), but the site is not necessarily primarily for the comments. - the articles and members area are excellent. Not every post on here can be insightful or interesting, but you do get a lot of help from posters on here.

      Discounting last season when I had a ghost team, I've been on here for 1 full season, and this one so far, and in the full season I finished 296, and now I'm just outside the top 1k. That is not coincidence.
