Aymeric Laporte was also absent with a one-match suspension, while Phil Foden and Jack Grealish returned, but only started on the bench.

But the boss confirmed at his Friday press conference that the four injured players, plus Laporte, will all travel to Vicarage Road.

“Except Ferran Torres, all are ready to travel to London,” said Pep.

“It’s better, I said before the game against Villa, you need everyone, much better to have everyone.”
