Nine crosses in loss Sema sent in nine crosses (six accurate) during Sunday's 5-1 loss to Leicester.

Impact Sema sent in nine crosses and created four chances in an all-around excellent showing Sunday. The midfielder has only made six starts for Watford so far in 2022/23, but he has filled the stat sheet when starting. Sema will hope to keep this going in the final match of the season, against Chelsea on Sunday.

Leads team in crosses Sema had four crosses (two accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 0-0 tie to Everton.

Impact Making his first start since Feb. 5 versus Burnley, Sema led the club in crosses and took Watford's only corner. If some of the team's injured forwards are able to play against Leicester City on Sunday, Sema will likely find himself once again watching from the bench as a substitute despite his decent performance.

On bench against Brentford Sema (knee) will be available as a substitute for Friday's clash with Brentford.

Impact Considering Sema was limited to just two starts in the club's first 10 matches, his absence from the starting XI should come as a surprise. In fact, the midfielder will likely continue to serve primarily as a bench option moving forward, making him a relative non-factor in fantasy contests.

Back in team training Sema (knee) is back in team training and could be an option Friday against Brentford.

Impact Sema has been out a little more than a month with a knee injury, so he's not expected to start right away. Then again, he's only received two starts this season in the first two matches, meaning he still has to win a role under Claudio Ranieri.

Aiming to train this week Sema (knee) is hopeful to train by the end of this week, according to the team.

Impact Sema is needed on the pitch with Ismaila Sarr out long term and Emmanuel Dennis nursing a minor injury. However, with a return to training later this week, it's unlikely he'll be ready to play by the weekend, meaning his return will have to wait until next week.

Hopeful to begin running next week Sema (knee) is hopeful to begin outside running next week in his recovery from an MCL injury.

Impact This is a better update on Sema's timeframe, as it looks like he could be out a few more weeks. He suffered the injury just before the break and has a couple more weeks before he can get back in full training.

Suffers MCL injury in training Sema suffered an MCL injury in training this past week and will be out for "some weeks," according to the team.

Impact This was already rumored to be the case for Sema and now it's known he'll probably miss more than a month of action. It's unfortunate for Sema, who has struggled for playing time this season and finally got some minutes off the bench under Claudio Ranieri in the past match against Southampton.

Injured in midweek training Sema suffered an injury in midweek training and has been withdrawn from the Sweden squad, making him a doubt for Sunday's trip to Arsenal, reports the Watford Observer.

Impact Sema has struggled for playing time this season, though he managed 45 minutes off the bench in the recent loss to Southampton. The hope is that this injury isn't serious and he can recover over the international break.

NOVEMBER 5, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Limited in first two starts Sema has one shot not on target, three chances created and three crosses (one accurate) in the first two matches of the season.

Impact Sema has started the first two matches, but he hasn't done anything with them despite Watford scoring three goals in the opener. He started 38 matches last season, but given newcomers, there's a chance he'll start to lose time in the squad, especially if he continues to struggle to produce.
