Will miss Sunday match Rudiger (groin) will miss Sunday's match against West Ham, according to manager Thomas Tuchel.
Impact Rudiger went from "close" to "doubtful" to "out" in the matter of 36 or so hours, which isn't a good sign for his groin injury. He'll have a few more days to recover ahead of next Thursday's trip to Manchester United, but for Sunday's match, it looks like Malang Sarr could be set for another start on the back line.

Doubt to face West Ham Rudiger is nursing a groin injury that is likely to keep him out Sunday against West Ham, confirmed manager Thomas Tuchel. "I don't think he will play against West Ham."
Impact Tuchel's comments changed before and after the match, so he either got an update in the 120-ish minutes or he wasn't being truthful before the match. Following a loss in which he wasn't happy, Tuchel then revealed the true nature of Rudiger's status and it doesn't look like the center-back will be ready Sunday. If that happens, it could mean more of Malang Sarr and Reece James or Cesar Azpilicueta at center-back, following a poor display from Andreas Christensen.

Takes two shots in draw Rudiger took two shots (one on goal) and made one interception during Thursday's 1-1 draw with Everton.
Impact It takes some interesting strategies to let Rudiger be more of a striker than a central defender but that's what happened Thursday as he completed the second-most passes of any player and found himself in the perfect chance to shot for goal. The current depth crisis across the league could see this happen on a few more occasions, but a lack of clean sheets (none in last five league matches) holds his value back a bit.
