OGS has already said that Maguire won’t play all the games - he physically can’t. He had played every minute of every PL game so far, and looked mostly likely to get the 3 games but think none of them will except maybe a keeper, but even they are being rotated.
So think it comes down to who will play the most minutes across the 3 games and in what order, so who is on the pitch for the most minutes in the best fixtures. Cavani got hooked early last night and Rashford rested, with Greenwood playing the full game. Suggests that maybe Rashford and Cavani are primed to start v Southampton and maybe one of them hooked early to start with Greenwood v Leictesrer and then go again with Greenwood v Liverpool? No idea and guessing is probably pointless.
Factor in Fernandes, Pogba fasting and no James, no Martial and it really is a shit show to predict.
I have Shaw and will keep him as I’m confident he will play 2 games and might take a punt on someone like Greenwood or Cavani. Greenwood is young and hasn’t played as many minutes as the others over the last 2 months.
Think it’s easy to overlook the other options too, focusing too much on United.
I have Maddison and Jesus primed to be swapped out. Just not sure for who.
Also, watch the blanks for next week. Chelsea, Arsenal, United and Leicester blank next week, so you don’t need to be shipping in those teams’ players this week for people who have a game next week.
Really hard game week to navigate.
