Cole Palmer will not be available for the Saturday clash with Fulham after pulling up with an injury in the warm-up and missing the recent 5-1 win over West Ham. Romeo and Benoit are unlikely to return immediately after the international break but are expected to be closer to fitness. Lavia is being targeted for increased game time this season after limited minutes previously. Palmer's injury led to his omission from the England squad. Alejandro Garnacho is set to join from Manchester United, with the club viewing him as a winger and the squad described as improved and loved.
Cole we need to see day by day. Romeo and Benoit - I don't think they will be back after the international break but they will be closer. Two years ago, he [Lavia] didn't play any games. Last year, he played some games. The target is to give him more games this season. I don't know [when he will be back]. When Cole is not in the game, we need to find different solutions. Hopefully tomorrow we can do the same.
I know he is around here, It's quite clear his position is a winger and I see him as a winger. You can expect anything with the transfer window open - anything can happen in and out. I joined the club one year ago saying I was in love with the squad and it has got better. The feeling is the same.
