Interessante Agüero-nyheter, populær Liverpool-duo i skadetrøbbel og Alonso-news. Her er ukens Fantasy-nytt.

Vi har samlet sammen det viktigste fra ukens pressekonferanser. Dette er de siste nyhetene fra de engelske klubbene:

Arsenal

Özil
“Emery confirms that Mesut Ozil (back injury) is a doubt for Wednesday’s match against Manchester United, having trained away from the squad today.” – Fantasy Scout

Tyskeren må starte flere kamper på rad før han eventuelt blir et aktuelt FPL-alternativ igjen.

 

Brighton

Skadenyheter
Hughton: «We have no new injuries – Jahanbakhsh is back training but he won’t be included tomorrow.» – Fantasy Scout

Cardiff

Skadenyheter
Warnock:  «I was going to change it and rest a couple of lads, which I don’t think I’ll be able to now, so I’m going to have to ask the lads to try and perform three times in a week.» – Fantasy Scout

Cardiff har bedret formen i det siste, og må stole på at de samme spillerne holder koken i et tett kampprogram.

Chelsea

Alonso
“Sarri acknowledges Marcos Alonso didn’t play very well on Sunday and says his back problem might have worsened during the game. He will check on his fitness during training, and speak to the left-back too.” – @ChelseaFC

Sarri: «I spoke with the doctor about 10mins ago. We’ve no injuries. We have a little problem with Kovacic at the weekend, also Alonso, but they are able to play.» – @ChelseaFC

Heldigvis var det en grunn til spanjolens svake prestasjon mot Fulham. Det er gode muligheter for at han blir klar til midtukerunden – uansett er det bare å sitte rolig på FPL-kontoret uten å foreta seg noe.

Crystal Palace

Skadenyheter
Hodgson: «We were lucky we didn’t pick up any real injuries at the weekend, just the usual knocks and bruises of Premier League matches. At the moment it looks like the same players are available again.»

Rullering
Hodgson: «It’s a three game week, so you’ll likely see changes in teams. Outside of those playing European football most teams aren’t used to it. Most managers are anxious to make changes if things are going well.»

Everton

Rullering
Silva: «We don’t have much time to recover from the last match so hopefully we will have more time to prepare in the future. It is possible I make some changes.” – Fantasy Scout

 

Vi er inne i perioden hvor hvile av spillere kommer helt uventet. Eneste man kan gjøre er å ha en “spillende” benk.

Fulham

Schürrle
Ranieri: «Andre Schürrle is ready to play.» – Fantasy Scout

Den tidligere verdensmesteren kan blomstre i tiden fremover under sin nye manager i form av Ranieri.

Huddersfield

Skadenyheter
Wagner: «Chris Löwe won’t be in the squad even though he was in training yesterday; there is a slight chance he could be back on Saturday. There are some other knocks but nothing serious, I can only answer after training today.» – Fantasy Scout

Leicester

Vardy
“Claude Puel reveals that Jamie Vardy «felt something» in the 2-0 win over Watford and will be assessed by the club’s medical team ahead of the match against Fulham on Wednesday.” – Fantasy Scout

Vardy-eiere har vært uheldig denne sesongen. Etter denne runden venter tre røde kamper på de neste fire. Vardy trives sant nok mot tøffere motstand, men det er vanskelig å forsvare en plass til engelskmannen på FPL-laget. Maguire vil bli testet frem mot kamp.

Liverpool

Skadenyheter
Klopp: «Sadio got a real knock on his foot, we’ll have to see how that ends. Hopefully all the rest [will be OK]. Robbo I think [has a] dead leg, his hip, so in the moment we have to see.

Sadio has an awful cut on his foot so it needed to be stitched. He’s okay, he’s walking around here now but in flip-flops. We don’t play in flip-flops.

With (Robertson) it’s not that serious, like with Sadio, but we need to have a look.» – Fantasy Scout

To av Liverpools mest populære FPL-valg er usikre før møtet med Burnley. Vanskelig å spå, men det finnes håp om spilletid for begge.

Manchester City

Agüero
“Guardiola on Sergio Aguero, Oleksandr Zinchenko and Kevin De Bruyne’s availability: ´Kevin is not ready. The other two, I don’t know. We have training in the afternoon so I cannot tell you right now the answer´” – Fantasy Scout

“The Manchester Evening News report that Sergio Aguero and Oleksandr Zinchenko were not photographed with the travelling Manchester City squad today.” – Fantasy Scout

Rullering
Guardiola: “I have a deep squad, I trust a lot with the players, of course there are a lot of games and they are going to be involved with that. Always what we do in the right moment is to do well today, in the game we are going to play.» – Fantasy Scout

Flere har allerede solgt Agüero. Hadde han vært spilleklar ville han vært et hett kapteinsalternativ borte mot Watford, men i overkant mye usikkerhet til at det er et godt valg nå. Både Agüero og Zinchenko har hatt skadeproblemer – noen dagers hvile frem mot Chelsea-kampen kan være fornuftig fra Citys side.

 

Manchester United

Lagendringer
Mourinho: «We are going to be in difficulties again to build the team. We are again going to have to make adaptations and compensations to try to give some balance to the team.» – Fantasy Scout

Skadenyheter
Mourinho: : «No. I don’t want to update you, Arsenal TV make the same questions but they don’t hide everything from the inside, so why should I answer to you so why should I give anything to you.» – Fantasy Scout

Portugiseren varsler omrokkeringer for å kunne skape en balanse i laget. Manageren gir dog ingenting gratis når det kommer til skadeoppdateringer.

Southampton

Skadenyheter
Davis: «We’re working on Ryan [Bertrand], Matt [Targett] and Danny [Ings] daily. We had a brief update from the physios today, we’re hopeful but by no means will they be at 100 per cent so we’ll have to make a decision on that late in the day.»  – Fantasy Scout

Ings er fremdeles ikke meldt 100 prosent klar til midtuka.

Tottenham

Trippier
“Mauricio Pochettino confirms that Kieran Trippier is available to face Southampton on Wednesday” – Fantasy Scout

Rullering
Pochettino: «We’re going to play a lot of games. Some players we cannot rotate for different reasons. Some maybe need to rest. It’s so important the health of the squad and we believe we can win with anyone on the pitch.» – Fantasy Scout

Tottenhams offensive høyreback er tilbake og kjemper om en startplass mot Southampton.

West Ham

Balbuena
Pellegrini: «We must see about Balbuena. He had a hard kick on Saturday. [He and Cresswell] are the two players that have some problems.” – Fantasy Scout

Balbuena har skaffet seg større og større interesse fra FPL-managere den siste tiden før et grønt kampprogram, men varsles som usikker til tirsdagens kamp.
