Option again
Polster (hamstring) is "good to go" and an option for play again, according to Sam Lattof of the Blazing Musket.
Analysis: Polster was out for the past five weeks but is finally set for a return from a hamstring injury, as the midfielder is set for a return in their coming games. This is huge news after he started in the first five games of the season, obviously, someone the club deems a critical player in the midfield. He does serve as more of a defensive option, so seeing much production from the midfielder will be limited this campaign.
