Fraser Forster: Very close to returning

Forster (knee) will not play in Saturday's FA Cup match against Crystal Palace, but he is scheduled to play in the Saints' U-21 match on Monday, manager Ronald Koeman said Thursday.

Analysis:

Forster has already played in an U-21 game, and if he can make it through Monday's without a setback, he could very well return for Premier League action soon. Given the timing, he is unlikely to play Wednesday against Watford, but he could return for the weekend fixture against West Brom.
