With Alisson, TAA, Szbozlai, Jones, Jota and Darwin out there’s no chance we rest anyone tomorrow. Who would we even rest?
Some wriggle room in defence. I think you could rest Konate for Quansah. Could even play one or both of Tsimikas and Gomez at full back if we felt a bit if the weekend’s back four needed a rest. We’ll be making a load of changes anyway, what’s one or two more.
For those who really want the league more than anything, if we can limp through tomorrow, get the win, it’s then 10 days before our next League game by which time you’d hope at least two of Mo, Darwin and Szboszlai will be back. Then a European first leg we may be able to rest a few in ready for a mighty push against City. Then a couple of weeks to take a breath and hope other teams’ players get injured on international duty.
