Siewert is still playing the pain game

out for the last three games, but the 26-year-old is now available for selection again for Saturday’s trip to West Ham after completing his ban.

Long-term injuries Adama Diakhaby (hamstring), Isaac Mbenza (calf ) and Danny Williams (knee) are unlikely to feature in the match against Manuel Pellegrini’s Hammers.

Here, we take a look at the rest of the Huddersfield Town players who have been on the treatment table recently and ask how likely they are to make the trip to the London Stadium. THE defender had partnered Christopher Schindler at centreback against Wolves and Brighton but pulled out of the Bournemouth game through injury.

After the match at the John Smith’s Stadium last Saturday, Siewert said: “With TK it is a small muscle problem so, hopefully, he can maybe come back before the international break.

“But I am not quite sure, maybe it will have to be after that.” HOGG went off injured during the trip to Brighton holding his midriff and clearly in a lot of pain.

The following Thursday Siewert confirmed it was a rib injury. The head coach explained: “Hoggy is still a problem with his ribs, and he isn’t good at all unfortunately.

“We don’t know yet how long Hoggy will be out, but it could take time.”

After the Bournemouth game the German provided more detail on when we can expect to see the midfielder back in action.

“With Hoggy, maybe it could take a few more weeks,” he said. “I am not sure - it depends on his rib.”
