Jose Mourinho can count himself the most fortunate manager in the Premier League right now when it comes to injuries.

The Chelsea boss has just one player, Radamel Falcao, unavailable for this weekend's matches, but even the Colombian striker was back training with the first-team earlier this week.

Arsenal have been amongst the worst hit with a number of midfield stars seemingly becoming injured just as others returned; Santi Cazorla is the latest to become a long-term casualty.

Manchester United have suffered as well, with Luke Shaw's horror injury the worst of a number of complaints.

Neighbours Manchester City always have to worry about the availability of Sergio Aguero and Vincent Kompany, while David Silva has only just returned.

At the other end of the table Remi Garde's Aston Villa are currently struggling with five first-team regulars out of action.
