Picks up hamstring injury Murphy was held out of Wednesday's 2-0 Carabao Cup win over Chelsea due to a hamstring injury, according to manager Eddie Howe. Impact Murphy is set for some time on the sidelines due to his injuries, although it doesn't appear to be long, with the club already deeming the issue non-serious. Either way, he is likely to miss out against Arsenal on Saturday as well, likely seeing a late fitness ahead of the match to decide his availability and going into the contest as doubtful. He has started in six of their matches thus far, so this will force a change, with Miguel Almiron and Harvey Barnes likely to see more time if Murphy continues on the sidelines.
