<h2>Cole Palmer</h2>
Palmer was caught on his upper leg by a high Lisandro Martinez boot in stoppage time of Chelsea&#8217;s draw with Manchester United on Sunday.
Blues boss Enzo Maresca was unimpressed with the tackle, arguing it should have been a red rather than yellow card.
Speaking after the 1-1 draw, Maresca said:
<blockquote>&#8220;Cole was in the changing room with ice, so we are waiting now. Hopefully, it is nothing important.&#8221;</blockquote>
It was  reported that Palmer would be sent for a scan, although it was hoped it was just a precautionary measure.
Speaking on Wednesday however, Maresca said the problem had prevented him from training. He explained:
<blockquote>&#8220;Cole didn&#8217;t train yesterday. We will see today if he is able to train with us.
&#8220;[Will he be fit to face Arsenal?] We hope so. But we need to see and then decide.&#8221;</blockquote>
Palmer is not registered in Chelsea&#8217;s Europa Conference League squad so will not be involved in their Thursday fixture regardless.

<h2>Morgan Rogers</h2>
Rogers was fit enough to be named in Aston Villa&#8217;s starting 11 for Wednesday&#8217;s Club Brugge clash &#8211; despite a knock at the weekend
Rogers came off in the 69th minute of Aston Villa&#8217;s 4-1 loss to Spurs on Sunday.
The Villa goalscorer&#8217;s condition was covered by Unai Emery post-match, who also noted Matty Cash&#8217;s withdrawal due to a calf problem. He said:
<blockquote>&#8220;I think Morgan [Rogers] will be OK because he wanted to carry on. [Matty] Cash felt something in his calf. Hopefully, not a lot [of time out].&#8221;</blockquote>
Cash meanwhile was not in the Champions League matchday squad.

<h2>Ibrahima Konate</h2>
Konate played 88 minutes of Liverpool&#8217;s Champions League match against Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday, ending fears over his ability to play in upcoming games.
He went off at half-time on Saturday after being stood on by Virgil van Dijk while the Reds dealt with a Brighton corner. Manager Arne Slot said:
<blockquote>&#8220;He had a lot of pain during half-time, so then you have to make the change.&#8221;</blockquote>
Joe Gomez came on instead of Jarell Quansah and was praised for his &#8216;outstanding&#8217; contribution:
<blockquote>&#8220;The good thing is we have two very good replacements in Joe Gomez and Jarell Quansah.
&#8220;I took Jarell off five minutes before the end in Brighton because he was already stretching and I could feel and see he was tired which is not so strange because he hasn&#8217;t played that much and then with 45 minutes to go I felt I had to bring someone in that was fitter than Jarell was during the week.&#8221;</blockquote>

<h2>Cristian Romero</h2>
Spurs already have Micky van de Ven on the sidelines &#8211; and fellow centre-back Romero is now a concern too.
The Argentine hurt himself while challenging Villa midfielder Rogers and was taken off just past the hour mark on Sunday. Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou said:
<blockquote>&#8220;Cuti, in the challenge, he’s a tough cookie so for him to come off, he’s very sore, but we’ll have to wait and see.
&#8220;Look, it’s part of what every team is going through, and we just have to deal with it.&#8221;</blockquote>
Spurs play Galatasaray in the Europa League on Thursday, however this is a competition in which they have rotated, so a Romero absence would not necessarily mean he is out injured.

<h2>Manchester City injuries: Haaland &#8216;fine&#8217; after training incident</h2>
Pep Guardiola has had a number of injury issues to navigate, with Ruben Dias and John Stones the latest heading for the treatment table.
Dias is not expected back until after the international break &#8211; Gameweek 12 onwards &#8211; and Stones&#8217; return date is unknown.
Things looked to be worse when Erling Haaland was filmed going down hurt and holding his leg during an open training session on Monday.
But it looks like the forward is fine heading into their midweek Champions League game against Sporting.
Giving an update on the squad on Monday, Guardiola said:
<blockquote>&#8220;Erling is fine. [Is he ok playing all games?] I don’t think so. Maybe international games [in November] he can rest.
“Manu [Akanji] and Nathan [Ake] are still with problems.
“Kevin [De Bruyne] is getting better. He is having sessions with less pain, so we feel he is getting more and more comfortable. That is good news for all of us.
“Kyle [Walker] as well. He had problems with his knee since being with the national team.
“[Jeremy] Doku has had problems with muscular issues, Savinho is getting better with his ankle. The rest are fine.
“Oscar [Bobb], the most important player in pre-season, is injured. Jack is still not fit. You know the situation with Rodri, nominated the best player in the world.
“We know we will struggle, and we have to accept that, and it is fine.&#8221;</blockquote>
Kyle Walker was in the starting lineup at the weekend against Bournemouth but it sounded like he featured ahead of schedule. His manager said he had taken part in &#8216;six minutes&#8217; of one training session before the match.
This allowed Rico Lewis a rest &#8211; a typical benching for FPL owners given Guardiola had days earlier suggested he could not be dropped due to City&#8217;s injury list.

<h2>Son Heung-min</h2>
Son was fit to start against Villa on Sunday after missing Gameweek 9.
He was taken off early but Postecoglou reassuringly confirmed this was a planned substitution and there was no recurrence of previous problems. He said:
<blockquote>&#8220;He was never going to play more than that today because obviously he&#8217;d had an injury.
&#8220;He came back and last time it was around the 60 minute mark where he got fatigued. So, he was never going to play more than 55-60 irrespective of where the game was going.&#8221;</blockquote>
