Will be nice to see some of the young players given a game if that's really the case but I suspect its bollocks. Think St Maximin will be out as he has thrown a strop, but there won't be many more from usual starting 11.
I'd prefer to see 100% fit youngsters playing than 90% fit regulars. I doubt they will all be fully fit by now if they've had Covid, unless they all were asymptomatic.
Darlow, Krafth, Hayden, Clark, Lewis, Shelvey, S Longstaff, Ritchie, Almiron, Joelinton, Wilson Subs: Langley, M Longstaff, Carroll, Gayle, Hendrick, Yedlin, Murphy
You can't get away with a defence like that at this level against any side This is a guaranteed defeat
He's going to park that defence on the edge of the 18 yard box and demand almiron and ritchie help out...
Suspect West Brom could throw quite a few high balls in there. No great Ariel power in that defence unless Carroll comes on lol.
They'll just run straight through us.. There's no pace in Longstaff, shelvey, Hayden, Krafth or Clark...or ritchie his legs went 2 years ago. This is going to be embarrassing Too slow and can't keep the ball
