Starting against United Gusto (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Thursday's match against Manchester United.

Impact Gusto is back on the team sheet as expected Thursday, recovering from an undisclosed injury he picked up in the club's most recent match against Burnely to make the starting XI. The defender should continue in the starting role moving forward, as he is the best option among all of Chelsea's injuries. However, once Reece James is healthy, Gusto will most likely slide back to a bench role, giving his spot up to James.

APRIL 4 • ROTOWIRE

Good for Man Utd match Gusto (undisclosed) has trained and will be available for Thursday's match against Manchester United, according to manager Mauricio Pochettino.

Impact Gusto was forced off with what was thought to be a muscle injury over the weekend, but he appears to be fine and should be in the XI Thursday. He's had a couple injuries this season but has been fairly healthy, starting almost every league match the past few months en route to three assists in those last nine starts.

APRIL 3 • ROTOWIRE

Comes off in discomfort Gusto registered three shots, five chances created and five crosses in Saturday's 2-2 draw to Burnley before coming off with an apparent hamstring issue in the 87th minute.

Impact Gusto was all over the pitch Saturday, as he not only put on a great performance in the attack but also added three tackles (two won) and an interception in the defense. However, he appeared to be in some discomfort as he left the pitch, appearing to be affected in the hamstring. This could be a brutal turn for the club if he does miss time, as they continue to pile up more injuries, although this may have been cautionary, making sure to avoid a serious issue by taking him off at first discomfort. More should be available following the match, with the player still not entirely being ruled out for Thursday's tilt with Manchester United.
