FPL Gameweek 15 injury and team news: Updates on Ings, Chilwell, Lamptey and more

We’ve heard from every Premier League manager ahead of the Gameweek 15 deadline, be it in stand-alone press conferences or in media gatherings held immediately after EFL Cup ties.

Our regular team news summary below has all the headline injury updates and stand-out manager quotes from the pre-match pressers so far.

A YouTube and podcast injury recap is available towards the bottom of this piece, while our Team News tab – which will be updated ahead of Saturday – will provide even more detail on what we offer here.

ARSENAL V CHELSEA

Frank Lampard could be without both of his first-choice full-backs for the Boxing Day trip to Arsenal with Ben Chilwell (ankle) and Reece James (knee) both doubtful for the next two matches.

Speaking on Wednesday, Lampard said:

They are both doubtful. I can’t give you an answer at the moment. I’m not sure if they will be fit for either game. 

Hakim Ziyech (hamstring) won’t be fit, meanwhile, with his manager adding:

He had an injury at the start of the season and he’s just got another muscle injury. You have to wait for it to recover. It’s not a long-term concern, we hope to have him back within the next week or so, and hopefully offering what he was before.

Arsenal report that Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (calf) is taking part in “drills” outside and will be assessed ahead of Saturday.

Gabriel Martinelli (shin) is “recovering well” and aiming to take part in full training but Thomas Partey (thigh) remains out.

Granit Xhaka is back from suspension.

LIVERPOOL V WEST BROMWICH ALBION

Diogo Jota (knee), Kostas Tsimikas (knee), Joe Gomez (knee) and Virgil van Dijk (knee) all remain out but James Milner (muscle) and Xherdan Shaqiri (muscle) could return this weekend and Thiago Alcantara (knee) is not too far away.

Jurgen Klopp said:

Thiago made his first steps back towards team training, is not involved in full sessions. We cannot and will not rush it. He will not be involved, he has to be first in full training sessions. But he’s not too far away I hope.

The other guys are closer, Shaq trained really good and Millie – yesterday, full session, today, a little bit adapted. We have still two more training days until we have to make a decision. Looks good, but I don’t know.

Kyle Bartley (calf), Conor Townsend (knee), Jake Livermore (suspended), Hal Robson-Kanu (wrist) and Sam Field (match fitness) remain out for the Baggies but Matheus Pereira is back from a three-match ban.

LEICESTER CITY V MANCHESTER UNITED

There was no update given on Scott McTominay (groin) and Aaron Wan-Bissaka (knock) in the aftermath of Thursday’s EFL Cup win over Everton, with both players picking up injuries in Gameweek 14 and subsequently missing the midweek action.

Jamie Vardy (groin) will be fit to feature for Leicester, with Brendan Rodgers saying:

He will be fine for the game. It’s just a little bit of soreness in that (groin) area, which he’s had a few times, but he’ll be okay.

Rodgers added that Caglar Soyuncu (adductor) would be “close” to featuring.

MANCHESTER CITY V NEWCASTLE UNITED

We’ve yet to hear much from the Manchester City camp ahead of the visit of Newcastle United, with embargoed quotes expected from Pep Guardiola at some point in the coming days.

Gabriel Jesus returned from a “dental problem” in the midweek win over Arsenal, a match that Sergio Aguero also featured in as he continues his slow road back fitness.

As for the Magpies, Jamaal Lascelles and Allan Saint-Maximin were this week confirmed as being two of Newcastle’s many COVID-related absentees.

Steve Bruce said:

I really can’t put a timeframe on it, although probably Jamaal before Allan. We hope that we can see improvement in the both of them and can join the squad in the next week, two weeks maybe.

Federico Fernandez will be assessed for fatigue, while there was an ominous line from Bruce on Callum Wilson:

Four games in 10-12 days, to ask them to keep going and going… is going to be very difficult. There’ll come a point where we have to give him a break, but that’s normal.

FULHAM V SOUTHAMPTON

Ralph Hasenhüttl revealed in his Wednesday press conference that a number of assets had not trained ahead of a Boxing Day trip to Fulham.

Danny Ings (hamstring), Nathan Redmond (muscle) and Jannik Vestergaard (knee) are among the doubts, with the Southampton boss saying:

After the very intense last week with three games in six days, you can see that some guys are struggling a little bit.

It’s early in the week, but I can only tell you who didn’t train so far; that is Ingsy, Jannik Vestergaard, Redmond. Ori [Romeu] is suspended, so we have a few issues.

Stuey [Armstrong] had a problem with his hand, with somebody stepping on it. I think it’s not a problem, but we have a few issues, so we must have a look in the next two or three days.

Kenny Tete is expected to miss out because his wife has just given birth, while Terence Kongolo has had a “minor setback” in his recovery from a foot problem.

Loanee Mario Lemina is ineligible to face his parent club.

SHEFFIELD UNITED V EVERTON

Richarlison (head) will be assessed ahead of a Boxing Day trip to Sheffield United. The winger suffered a nasty collision against Manchester United on Thursday and could face time off due to concussion protocols, although Carlo Ancelotti said after full-time:

Richarlison is fine now, he has no problem. We are going to check him in the next few days and we will see what’s going on but fortunately, he was OK after the game.

James Rodríguez (calf) was not ready to feature in the EFL Cup and remains a doubt for the weekend.

Chris Wilder says that Oli McBurnie (shoulder) remains “touch and go” for the festive period and that the Blades have “planned on him not being available”.

Lys Mousset (ankle) will only be involved as an impact sub at best while Sander Berge (tendon) is out for three to four months.

LEEDS UNITED V BURNLEY

Sean Dyche delivered positive updates on Robbie Brady (hamstring) and Dwight McNeil (groin) in his Wednesday press conference, reporting he was “hopeful” the former would be involved against Leeds and the latter “possibly”, too.

There were a number of first-team players involved in a training ground match against Blackpool on Wednesday in an attempt to top up match fitness. That clutch included Johann Berg Gudmundsson and Jack Cork, although the pair aren’t expected to feature in Sunday’s match.

Liam Cooper (abdomen) will join Robin Koch (knee) and Adam Forshaw (hip) in missing the clash with Burnley but Diego Llorente was passed fit by Marcelo Bielsa on Thursday,

WEST HAM UNITED V BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION

Tariq Lamptey (hamstring) is set to miss out yet again for Brighton although Graham Potter expects the player to return “pretty soon” after Sunday’s trip to West Ham. 

Michail Antonio (hamstring) may also still be sidelined for the Hammers, with David Moyes offering a cagey update:

Michy’s back on the grass training. We’ll hopefully get him back as quick as we can. We can’t say exactly when that will be. He’s coming on well so hopefully, that won’t be too long.

WOLVERHAMPTON WANDERERS V TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR

Giovani Lo Celso (muscle) will miss the rest of the Christmas programme but Erik Lamela is back available after featuring as a substitute in midweek.

Asked if Harry Kane could manager another run-out after lasting 90 minutes on Wednesday, Jose Mourinho said:

Today is Wednesday, the next match is Sunday, I believe a player like him that works well and takes good care of himself with a great professional life, I believe in three days he will be ready to play against Wolves.

In his Wednesday press conference, Nuno Espirito Santo said that Wolves are “not in a good moment” in relation to their latest fitness news.

That included lasting problems from the Chelsea game as well as confirmation that, against Burnley, “there were players on the bench who weren’t able to play”. Santo did not name-check any specific players but it is possible he was referring to Willy Boly, who was an unused substitute at Turf Moor following a stoppage-time injury against Chelsea.

Leander Dendoncker (knock) also remains a doubt.

ASTON VILLA V CRYSTAL PALACE

Gary Cahill (hamstring) is the latest addition to the Crystal Palace injury list, which includes long-term absentees Martin Kelly (calf), Nathan Ferguson (thigh), Connor Wickham (muscle) and Wayne Hennessey (muscle).

Mamadou Sakho (calf) wasn’t mentioned by name in Roy Hodgson’s pre-match presser and, given that his injury was described as merely “minor” last week, it could be that he is ready to return.

Christian Benteke is also available after a one-match ban.

Ross Barkley (hamstring) and Ezri Konsa (illness) were expected back in training ahead of the weekend’s game, although Trezeguet (hamstring) remains sidelined.

        1. manu4life99
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          No idea, its Pep so there are no guarantees. I prefer Dier for those who need a nailed def for both 18 and 19.

          Personally I will be FH18 and BB/TC19 as I see it as the superior strategy for most teams

        2. Amey
          • 5 Years

          LOL

    Wilson > Adams a perfectly reasonable use of a ft?

    1. AnfieldLad
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah that was my planned move before defence injuries

    2. manu4life99
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      My plan also (considered Wood and Rodrigo but have landed on Adams)

    1FT 0.3ITB

    WC next week. Just replace Chilwell and I’m G2G?

    1. sully29
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Walker or Matip. Depends who you think is more likely to get a clean sheet.

  8. ajk1211
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Is Matip nailed?

    1. AnfieldLad
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yeah

    2. Seanigula
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No...he has frequent minor injuries and Fabinho and R Williams will fill in...I think he plays 75% of games at best

    3. ajk1211
      • 8 Years

    1. Saiz does not matter
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Who said that he's not nailed? Only reason he missed out recently was due to having Covid

      1. Weasel Boy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member

          • Has Moderation Rights
          • 14 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          Depending on your GW18/19 plan, could be worthwhile.

  14. andres
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    So how do I get robbo in?

    McCarthy
    Coufal Dier Targett (James, Mitchel)
    Son KDB Bruno Salah (Soucek)
    DCL Bamford Adams
    1FT, 0.4.

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Only way Bruno/kdb + James out

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Yeah, true.. this gw would have to be for a hit though..

        Considering Raphina and use cash to upgrafe dcl later

    2. fjb07
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      maybe sell one of son or kdb.. whoever is more frustrating consistently xD.. and use that money to upgrade a defender

      1. andres
        • 12 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Would be kdb probably... not sure I have the balls to do it for a hit this gw..

  15. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Do you think Bruno to Mane to double up with Salah is a crazy move?

    Next three for Bruno looks difficult for me I'm Leicster, wolves and Villa, which have good defense stats

    1. Flair
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      No

    2. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Yes, it is not a good move imo. It can work but Mane looks iffy as of now.

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        Thnx

    3. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      I like it

  16. gomez123
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Was gunna ship KDB to get in Salah but now I have Chilwell and Lamptey both out (other defenders TAA/Dallass & Mitchell)
    Should I (A)keep it simple and sort out one defender and capt KDB or (B) take a hit to get in Salah and lose KDB?

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      A

    2. Seanigula
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Just play the defenders you have, especially if you want the injured 2 back in...Salah (C) for a full 90 minutes looks like decent points

  17. Boxwoods
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Got lost on last article.

    Do we know why Balbuena missed the Palace match?

    1. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Injured I guess

    2. Saiz does not matter
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Small groin issue I believe

  18. AC Yew
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Hows this WC looking?

    Johnstone (Steer)
    Robbo Cancelo Coufal (Balbuena Taylor)
    Salah Bruno Grealish Son (Soucek)
    DCL Bamford Adams

    0.2 ITB

  19. Tango74
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Not sure on Adams now . Saints got 4 players out

    Booo

  20. Pep Roulette
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    How lung until Justin keeps his place?

    1. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Manager is a big fan so longer than expected.

    2. ElChapo
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      just hold your breath and hope

    3. Pep Roulette
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Cheers both

  21. Egyptian Giza
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    3.8 & Son > Raphinha & Robertson .. Plan is to go KDB to Son next week for both the fixtures and then get back KDB in the FH.

    1. Yay
    2. Nay

    1. djman102
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Doing something very similar myself. Targeting the WBA fixture worth in IMO.

  22. Genji3lade
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Fearful of not owning Robertson. Have 2 FT's.

    Thoughts on Chilwell + Grealish >> Robertston + Raphina

    Alternatively wait til next week and keep Grealish for Palace but miss Robbo's lucrative WBA fixture.

    1. Saka Punch
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Who would you play in defence instead of Robbo if you carried the transfer?

  23. Saka Punch
    • 5 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Hey guys, would you do:

    A) Grealish + Chilwell -> Raphinha + Robertson (for -8) this week.

    B) Play Taylor (lee) this week and do those moves (for -4) next week.

  24. R.C
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    For the DGW, Salah + Robbo +

    A) TAA
    or
    B) Mane

  25. Fluctus de Mutilatio
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Anyone else considering Martial for GW16 wildcard? He would essentially take the forward spot currently occupied by DCL. Player in good form, team in good form, DGW19. Could easily flip him back down to DCL (or maneuver to upgrade to Vardy/Kane) after GW20 or so. Feels like a reasonable low ownership punt for the next few GWs, but I've been burned by him in the past. Thoughts?

    1. FPLGeezer
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      If theres any time to get him in this season now is the time. In form getting chances and involved in our best attacking play. I'm considering him or Rashford possibly later for extra points as mid.

    2. TorresMagic™
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • Has Moderation Rights
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 3 months ago

      Think he scores vs Pool?

      1. Fluctus de Mutilatio
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        No. Thinking of the LIV game as a 2 point head start over DCL through ~GW20, in addition to the better attacking fixtures during this period. Martial probably has a higher risk of rotation to be fair.

  26. Huddersfield
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 3 months ago

    Thoughts on this lot if all now doubtful players fit for FH19:

    Fab
    Robbo Chilwell James Castagne
    Salah(C) Mané Bruno
    Werner Bam Antonio

      We are not worthy.

      Why do we need to sign up, out of interest?

      1. Ze_Austin
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 3 months ago

        My guess would be it keeps your plans linked to one user ID by making one there on the site, which isn't really possible with just your FPL ID as that can be used by anybody

        1. Ze_Austin
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 3 months ago

          In other words: storage

          The only way to store your plan data and show that to only you is by creating a personal account, your own "corner" of the website

      Thanks I love the idea of seeing your team in future weeks based on transfers. Something I always thought would be great. Happy Christmas and thanks again.

      @Raga - quick points
      1. reset transfers btn not working
      2. 2nd bench btn not working
      3. would be great to have the ticker adaptable like on ffs where we can rank offensively or defensively or overall

      Thank you once more

      Great tool thank you! I noticed that it has not included the transfer I made in gw17 though, seems to pick up gw16 team.

    planning on fh gw18 and bb gw19. have no 1st wc. have 2ft and 0,4m itb

    a) mitchell+kane -> robbo+adams (lose much value from kane..)
    b) mitchell+grealish+dcl -> robbo+soucek/raphinha+adams -4
    c) james+grealish -> robbo+soucek/raphinha (would need more hits onwards here building bb team if james out..)
    d) james+dcl -> robbo+adams

    basically this gw it's losing either kane, dcl or grealish.. which one?
    currently leaning on c&d

      I'm on a WC and took DCL and Grealish out and brought Kane IN. c or d worth the hit IMO.

        cheers.

        martinez (martin)
        james* coufal kwp (taylor mitchell*)
        salah son bruno grealish* (bissouma*)
        kane bamford dcl

        yeah, i fancy kane with its fixtures. I have 2ft now, so would not be a hit with C&D. what do u think about option B?

    Want 2 united attackers for the double. Had planned Grealish to Son for gw16 buy likely now to FH 18 so can get him in for that. Which is better from gw16 & 17.

    A) Son (FUL LEE)
    B) Rashford (WOL AVL)

    Hi All,

    I'm playing WC next week so looking to maximise GW 15. Who would you get in the back line for Lamptey this GW?

    Robbo KWP Zouma (Lamptey Ferguson)

    1FT £0.4 ITB

    Happy with all other players in the squad (for once...)
