Dealing with calf issue Bamford was not in the squad Monday against Liverpool because of a calf issue, manager Javi Garcia revealed after the match. Impact Bamford can't seem to stay on the pitch for an extended period, as this absence comes after back-to-back starts. He missed a match at the beginning of March with a possibly similar issue and then returned to the starting XI immediately following, so there's a chance he'll be ready for Saturday's trip to Fulham. Then again, given his injury history, Rodrigo could be set for another start after getting the captain's band in Monday's match.
