However, a report in Football London implies that Lenglet’s injury is not serious and that he’ll be in contention on the weekend. He may even be in the starting XI.
Mason will probably say more tomorrow on this situation, but here is what he’s said so far.
“He had a shoulder problem, you could probably see. Hopefully nothing too serious, too bad,” Mason said after the game:
“He got treatment on the pitch, it was late on in the game, it was a set piece and we didn’t really want to lose a central defender to defend a set piece so we made that change.”
