Cresswell update ahead of Spurs

Aaron Cresswell is very doubtful for tomorrow evening’s game against Wembley after leaving the action against West Brom with a back injury.

The defender took a knock in the second half and has aggravated an old injury and although described as “very minor” it looks sufficient to keep him out of the match against Spurs.

We were told that the left sided defender’s chances of playing are no better than 70/30 with a source explaining: “He’s had the injury before and it usually only takes three or four days to get over it so he could be available for the weekend and Shrewsbury.”

Michail Antonio and James Collins are also unavailable through injury so it means that manager David Moyes may be forced to lose Arthur Masuaku’s attacking spark and be forced to use him on the left side of a three.

Possible line-up (3-5-1-2): Adrian; Zabaleta, Reid, Ogbonna, Rice, Masuaku; Noble, Kouyate; Lanzini; Arnautovic, Carroll.
