Doom Monger
Time to rest the big boys. No way would I play Kolasinac unless we are guaranteed Monreal's return for Sunday. We've winged it with emergency left-backs but why risk it one more time if you don't have to? AMN can cover or even Welbz or go for a back three.
I would only play Sokratis if he is not starting on Sunday. A month ago we were all saying he was our best centre-back, is he now third-choice? I don't think so which is why I'd play Mustafi here.
Guendouzi, Ramsey and Lichsteiner obviously have to play. Mkhitaryan so he doesn't start on Sunday. More minutes for Smith-Rowe and (doubt Emery will listen) for Nketiah and Willock too. Plezeguelo should start.
Reluctantly agree with Iwobi starting but that's only because I can't see how else we would have 11 starters without risking players who've had more minutes.
Sporting are in a mess, we don't even need to win this. But we do need to beat Wolves and end that unwinning league streak.
