Comes off bench against Lille
Buendia (undisclosed) created one scoring chance as a substitute during Thursday's UEFA Europa League win over Lille.
Analysis: Buendia was reserved for the last few minutes of the midweek clash after leaving with a minor problem in his previous appearance. He has made nine consecutive Premier League starts on the left flank, so he could bounce back at the expense of either John McGinn or Jadon Sancho in the next few matchups. However, the Argentinian is in deficient form with no goals or assists over his last seven league games.
off injured
Buendia was forced off the field in the 86th minute of Sunday's 3-1 loss to Manchester United due to an apparent injury.
Analysis: Buendia had to be taken off late into Sunday's match after being helped by the physios, appearing to pick up an injury. However, after five straight starts and two games this week, there have been some talks of fatigue, possibly just needing some rest to end the game. Either way, with a Europa League match on Thursday, this will be something to monitor.
