TEAM NEWS

Ronald Koeman – who will bring up 100 Premier League games as a manager – admits he has a welcome selection headache in midfield as Idrissa Gana Gueye is once again available.

The Senegal man was away with the Lions of Teranga at the recent Africa Cup of Nations and, having missed the trip to Stoke City on Wednesday, is back in contention.

However, he has a fight on his hands to reclaim his place in the starting line-up. “We’ve had some new faces in the team [since] and everyone knows at the moment we have five very good midfielders in that position,” said Koeman.
