Kamaldeen Sulemana - Needs more time Sulemana (ankle) is out for Monday's match against Bournemouth, according to manager Russel Martin. "Kamaldeen is still a bit away from being with us."

Impact Sulemana is still waiting on his season debut as he continues to recover from ankle issues. The forward is still in need of more time to recover, making him doubtful for a return before the international break. That said, he is more than likely expected to return in the later part of October, with a return in the next week or two out of the picture.

Impact Smallbone will continue his tenure on the sidelines, missing a third consecutive match due to his issues. However, the midfielder is on the mend, with a return expected following the international break. This is great news for the player and club, as he did start in their opening three matches of the season.

Next, he'll face off against Bournemouth, a team with five goals in five games.

Tyler Dibling - First start Dibling made his first Premier League start during Saturday's 3-0 loss to Manchester United.

Impact Dibling has appeared in all four matches in the Premier League, but only started one. He seems to be earning more trust as the season goes on, and if he can continue producing a bit of creativity that could earn him a larger role moving forward.

On the other hand, he has yet to record a chance created, goal or assist through four appearances.

Jack Stephens - Sent off Saturday Stephens was sent off during the second half of Saturday's clash with Manchester United.

Impact Stephens was shown a straight red card and sent off during Saturday's clash. The defender has been a constant in the starting XI since rejoining Saints, and will now be set for a spell on the sideline. Stephens will miss three matches via suspension, setting him up to return for an Oct. 5 trip to Arsenal.

Ross Stewart - Available versus Manchester United Stewart (undisclosed) is a bench option for Saturday's match against Manchester United.

Impact Bednarek has no intention of leaving the Saints anytime soon, with the defender having just extended his stay with the club for an additional three seasons. He has been a regular starter for the club going back to 2019, still holding that spot today after starting in the opening three matches of the season.

Mauricio Pochettino all-time XI: Messi, Kane headline new USMNT coach's former players

Aaron Ramsdale - Concedes three in Saints debut Ramsdale made four saves and conceded three goals during Saturday's 3-1 loss against Brentford.

Impact Ramsdale made his debut with the Saints just one day after his transfer from Arsenal was completed. However, he wasn't very lucky here as his team was totally dominated and saw the opposition score three times and miss many other opportunities. The goalkeeper prevented a ever worse defeat with the interventions he made but this wasn't enough for him to leave as a net positive for fantasy purposes. Ramsdale will try to bounce back during Saturday's clash against a struggling but dangerous Man Utd side.

Yukinari Sugawara - Scores first goal with Saints Sugawara scored a goal off three shots (two on target), created two chances, sent in seven crosses (one accurate) and made two tackles, three clearances, two interceptions and one...

Impact Sugawara had by far his best performance of this beginning of campaign, providing numbers on both ends, and the reward for his efforts came late in the game as he scored a consolation goal for the Saints with a beautiful one-timed finish deep into second half's stoppage time. This was the first EPL goal for the full-back, who looks to have his spot in the lineup locked up at this moment.

Adam Lallana - Assists off bench in season debut Lallana made4 an assist after coming off the bench during Saturday's 3-1 loss against Brentford.

Impact Lallana was brought to replace Joe Aribo in the 82nd minute with his team already down by three but still found time to contribute as he assisted Yukinari Sugawara for the consolation goal deep into stoppage time. Most importantly, the midfielder looked completely okay after recovering from the knock that left him sidelined for the first two matches of the season and proved he can have more playing time moving forward.
