Starting against Leeds Jimenez (fatigue) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against Leeds.

Impact It looks like Bruno Lage was toying with the media when he made comments about Jimenez being a doubt less than 24 hours ago. Jimenez has been training for a week following the international break and as expected, he's in the XI against Leeds after scoring and assisting twice in his last two starts.

In doubt Saturday Jimenez is questionable versus Leeds United due to his international travel schedule with manager Bruno Lage telling reporters, "Let's see [if he will play against Leeds]. He's tra...

Impact Jimenez started each of the club's first seven matches before leaving on international duty for Mexico. In those appearances, the forward logged the full 90 minutes every game and tallied one goal on 17 shots (three on target), two assists and two crosses (zero accurate). Whether Jimenez features in the starting XI on Saturday or comes off the bench, it seems unlikely he will play the full match against Leeds United given the manager's comments.

Impact Jimenez looks a little different with his headband after a serious head injury knocked him out last season, but he still seemed just as dangerous in the attack and should be able to work into a rhythm soon. That may not be the easiest thing to pull off just yet, as he'll face two tough sides in Tottenham and Manchester United over the next two weeks.

Impact Jimenez's return to the pitch will be gradual, as he's been out since December and not only has to get back his match fitness, but also return to heading the ball, something he's been limited from in training. He'll work up those things in the coming months and if all goes well, he'll take part in preseason matches. "Further match-based rehabilitation will start in July and will be tightly controlled initially. This respects the fact that although his recovery appears to be total there is a big step from training to competition."
