Can’t see Kaide Gordon starting considering the way he is being managed carefully. Shame we can’t play Jay Spearing as we are short of DMs options due to injuries. Don’t think Bobby Clark has been playing for the U21s recently so he must be injured.
I wouldn't start anyone who is going to line up against Utd on Sunday. Assuming the rumors are true and Mac Allister is struggling to make it, for me that would be Alisson, Trent, Tsimikas, Konate, van Djik, Endo, Jones, Szoboszlai, Salah, Diaz, Nunez.
Put together the best 11 from the players who are left and probably give Endo and Jones the second half off the bench in preparation for Sunday.
Kelleher
Bradley Gomez Quansah Chambers
Elliott McConnell Gravenberch
Doak Gakpo Koumas
Subs bench that includes 5 senior outfield options and youngsters: Pitaluga, Jaros, Konate, Scanlon, Endo, Nyoni, Jones, Frauendorf, Musialowski, Gordon, Diaz, Nunez
Leave at home: Alisson, Trent, Tsimikas, van Djik, Szoboszlai, Salah
