Frenkie De Jong - Goes down with injury De Jong was forced off the pitch in the 26th minute due to an undisclosed injury, having been carted off the field in Sunday's 0-0 draw against Athletic. Impact De Jong looks to be heading back to the sidelines once again, picking up another complication after already missing a spell of 10 games due to an ankle injury earlier in the season. This is already a massive blow for the midfielder, but it will also have a solid effect on the club, as he is a regular starter when healthy and may miss a decent portion of time due to his newest issue. It appears to be an ankle problem for the midfielder, although the club is yet to confirm anything or give a timetable for his return. More should be released in the coming days, but at the moment, the situation does not gut look good, with the player most likely missing time as Oriol Romeu or Fermin replace him in the starting XI.
