Impact Neto has been out of action since Oct. 28 versus Newcastle, a stretch of seven matches on the shelf. Given his extended layoff, the forward probably shouldn't be expected to immediately jump back into the starting XI, especially with the busy schedule that includes fixtures against Brentford and Everton on Dec. 27 and 30, respectively. Still, Neto started all 10 of his appearances this season and should be in the mix for a starting spot sooner rather than later.

No matter, he's close to being back and still leads the league with seven assists despite missing the last seven matches with this hamstring injury.

The hope is that he can take part in some training in the next week and if not, there's no guarantee he'll be back in December. Gary O'Neil has tweaked a few things in Neto's absence and will likely tweak as needed depending on opponent.
