Philippe Coutinho - Makes one tackle as sub Coutinho made one tackle (won) in 29 minutes during Saturday's 4-0 loss at Newcastle.
Impact Coutinho subbed on in the second half when they were already trailing 3-0. The midfielder failed to log any offensive stats for the second straight game. He's been in and out the squad during the season, with six starts in 12 appearances.

Lucas Digne - Makes two clearances in return Digne registered one inaccurate cross, one tackle (zero won) and two clearances in 21 minutes during Saturday's 4-0 loss at Newcastle.
Impact Digne subbed on in the second half and played 21 minutes in his return after recovering from the heel injury that forced him to miss the prior five games. The left-back could not do much to avoid the loss, though. He started in all of his seven appearances before the issue and will now look to reclaim his spot.

Ollie Watkins - Quiet outing in loss Watkins created one chance, sent in one inaccurate cross, made one interception and picked up a yellow card in Saturday's 4-0 loss at Newcastle.
Impact Watkins had a quiet outing and could not do much during the road loss. The forward failed to take a single shot for just the third time in the season. He also received his first yellow card after 13 appearances (12 starts).
OCTOBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Robin Olsen - Concedes four goals in debut Olsen made two saves in 55 minutes during Saturday's 4-0 loss at Newcastle.
Impact Olsen had a game to forget in his season debut, subbing on for the injured Emiliano Martinez in the 35th minute. The goalkeeper allowed four goals as they ended up with the tough road loss. He will now look to bounce if he starts against Manchester United on Nov 6, but Martinez will be evaluated again by the doctors during the week.

Lucas Digne - On bench to face Newcastle Digne is fit and in the match day squad to face Newcastle on Saturday.
Impact Digne returns form a heel injury that has kept him out over a month. The full-back starts from the bench, but is available if called upon against Newcastle.

Lucas Digne - Available against Newcastle Digne (heel) has "done a full week of training" and will be back in the squad Saturday against Newcastle, according to assistant manager Aaron Danks.
Impact It's a great update for Digne, but it's a stretch for him to start in his first match back. Ashley Young could start at left-back Saturday and Digne may be an option off the bench. If all goes well, he could grab a couple starts ahead of the World Cup, which would help his chances of holding his spot in the France team.

Boubacar Kamara - Ahead of schedule in recovery Kamara (knee) is ahead of schedule in his recovery from knee ligament damage and could be back as soon as a Nov. 6 match against Manchester United, according to David Ornstein of T...
Impact Kamara has found himself presented with favorable news less than a month before the World Cup begins as he was originally expected to miss the competition entirely. While not normally a candidate for selection by the French team, it could be a matter of survival of the fittest ahead of N'Golo Kante (hamstring) and Paul Pogba (knee) for places in midfield. At club level, Leander Dendoncker and Douglas Luiz will provide competition for minutes once Kamara is cleared to play.
