Looks like he might be out for a while. Hoilett I think is out until after the break as well.

Time for Kadeem harris to step up.

"That's disappointing," said Warnock on Mendez-Laing's injury.

"We won't know for a few days as it's swollen so we can't even scan it until the middle of next week probably unless it goes down before then.

"He was brave and got to it before the goalkeeper. It makes you think what is he supposed to do in that situation.

"That'll be touch and go," Warnock added when asked if Junior Hoilett will be ready to face Arsenal...

"After the international break he'll be ok."

[PontBlue]

If he is out for several months can we revise our 25 man squad to include Pilkington or Tomlin?

[Igovernor]

Yes we can until 31st. Jan. If he is out for months then he will drop out of the 25 at least till January, so who will we shoe in, Pilkington, Tomlin or will we get a striker in?

[fred keenor]

Are you sure, thought the 25 man squad could not be changed unless there were special circumstances ie a goalkeeper?

Yes it can be changed till 31 August and we can bring in a free agent.

[SuisseBluebird]

Yes it can be changed till 31 August and we can bring in a free agent.
There's options, Bakary Sako is available on a free although not shown signs of the player he one was at Wolves.

Sorry to sound rude, but you've got a history of getting these things wrong and you're wrong again. There's nothing in the rules to say that you can change squad registrations until 31st Jan.

Edit: Here's the relevant part in the PL Handbook

U.6. Changes to a Squad List may be made:
U.6.1. during the period of a Transfer Window; or
U.6.2. at other times only with the permission of the Board (this has only ever been used to register a goalkeeper)

[Stavross1927]

He was playing well for Palace last season and then got a bad injury which ruled him out for a while. Could be worth a punt.

Not sure why 31 Jan is being mentioned. We are in August.

The final confirmation of the 25 man squad is sumitted on Aug 31 / Sep 1.

That's because players who are in the squad now could still leave and move abroad by Aug 31. So if you lose a player you are allowed to replace him. Where you replace him from is a matter I don't know the exact answer to. Someone from outside the 25 who is already under contract?

Can you remove a player from the 25 if he's injured? I don't know. And can you bring a player in now who is out of contract? Again I'm not sure
