Eric Dier - Still not ready to return Dier (illness) is not available for Wednesday's Cup match against Chelsea, confirmed manager Antonio Conte.

Impact It's unclear what happened with Dier after Conte said only a few days ago that he'd be available following an illness. Something else could've happened the last couple days and for now, he'll also be a doubt for Sunday's league match against Arsenal until a further update.

Heung Min Son - Out until February Son (muscular) will be out until after the international break, confirmed manager Antonio Conte. "The update on Sonny, for sure, we will have to wait until after the January intern...

Impact This was always thought to be the case for Son, who will miss the next three league matches. Tottenham aren't a deep team up front and will either turn to Dele Alli or go elsewhere, especially since Steven Bergwijn isn't 100 percent, either.

Ryan Sessegnon - Starts FA Cup match Sessegnon (strain) started and made it 86 minutes in Sunday's FA Cup win against Morecombe.

Heung Min Son - Out with muscle injury Son is set to miss the next couple matches with a muscle injury suffered in the Cup loss against Chelsea, confirmed manager Antonio Conte. "We're a bit disappointed for Sonny, beca...

Impact It's not great news for Son, but it's not as bad as it could be. As it stands, he may only have to miss three league matches and then hopefully return over the international break. If it's not major, he could be back before the end of the month. If not, Dele Alli could see more time in the attack, though Conte will probably have to look elsewhere, as well.

Impact It's the second-straight bench appearance for Lo Celso, who appears to be healthy again after missing the last month with knee and calf issues. He's likely still working back to fitness, but if he can remain healthy, he figures to find more time in the squad going forward.
