Milner (hamstring) has yet to receive a clear timetable of return as he will not make the trip to Bournemouth on Saturday. "The medical department and the physios work hard with him day to day, week to week, but I can't give the clear schedule as to when he will be back. It can be fast, it could take a little bit longer - I don't want to give any date as to when we'll see him back on the pitch" said manager Fabian Hurzeler.
ANALYSIS
Milner is still struggling to return to the pitch after suffering a hamstring injury during the September international break. The midfielder has not been given a definite schedule for his return, and it is unlikely that he will play until December at the earliest. At age 38, this should not be a surprise, as his recovery is taking longer than expected as he enters his 22nd professional season.
