<li><strong>Dominic Solanke</strong> meanwhile has been ruled out of Spurs' crunch relegation clash with Leeds, but the striker has a chance of making a return in Gameweek 37.</li>

Tomorrow [Saturday] we will see how they are coming here, the players, [for] the last training session. And on Sunday, my idea is to try to get the best players for this match."</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Press conference notes</h3>
<p>Asked how strong a team he intends to pick in Gameweek 36, Oliver Glasner <a href="https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/crystal-palace-injury-latest-glasner-b1281530.html">responded</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>"I don’t know exactly. I could see Adam Wharton was really done at the end [on Thursday]. I could see T [Tyrick] Mitchell had a knock on his quad [and] was limping. I think Ismaila Sarr was sprinting again, high numbers. Yeremy Pino worked so hard, JP [Jean-Philippe Mateta] the same.</p>
<p>"I will pick the team I think is best for the game. We need to get the win against Everton to be really safe in the league."</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Glasner - who gave his players Friday off - has no fresh injury worries but seemed to hint again at rotation:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>"No [new] injury concerns. Again, we’ll have a day to decide. You could see [against Shakhtar] that we had good options from the bench. Let’s see who is fit.</p>
<p>"We can’t take any risks with injuries, because we also play on Wednesday [against Man City]. Then we have one [extra] day until Sunday against Brentford [in Gameweek 37], and then we have an entire week before Arsenal [Gameweek 38].</p>
<p>"An entire season of playing three games in six days - Thursday and Sunday - is really tough. We have to find the right players and we will."</p>
