Hope Sandro is fully fit and can take Barton''s place alongside Henry in front of the back four. Same with Adel further forward, but I suspect as neither looked to be training fully in Dubai, neither will be 100%.
Until we actually physically run out of players, I'm not too bothered with injuries, suspensions and the like. Ramsey just sets the team up and hopefully whoever plays understands what they have to do. Opportunities for everyone.
That's good then, thought i'ld read he had & knowing JB was out I was worrying who was going to play there. I'm presuming it will be him if fit...........Hoping we pull out a stellar hard working performance, 3pts would be lovely but a draw wouldn't be a disaster
Who'd have said a month ago that Matt Phillips is a must start? Henry and Sandro probably and perhaps Kranky out wide left. As per SB and TBGW... I don't mind too much because CR doesn't make a big deal about who's out and just expects a job to be done by the player with the jersey on.

The nice thing is I'm not hearing the old excuses being trotted out. It would be good to be able to pick from a fully fit and available squad but if you can't you just get on with it. If the ones who are available are properly coached and prepared and most importantly they play to their potential they can do a good job. I wouldn't be surprised to see Isla played somewhere new and interesting on Wednesday.
