Especially considering the 8 day layoff coming up.

Broken hearts are much better than broken legs though. I have no confidence on their pitch even though they are going to relaid the pitch. I think putting Kane on the bench is quite enough

You're right - we won't.KWP needs to start for me, but Serge needs game time too. So I'd like to see this, I know we won't though.
Sissoko in for KWP and you may be right.

They've got an atrocious pitch, so Poch may decide not to risk him.
It's a possibility...

He also wants to star in the World Cup, and win the CL with us, and also listens to Sport Scientists / Medical people to maximise his performance. Playing every game will hit his form in the last QTR of the season and also affect his summer tournament. He would be mad to insist on playing.

It'll be the same for the players that started on Tuesday. That's why I hope he rotates with no fewer the 9 changes.
For anyone else living under a rock they have a new pitch. Apparently Rochdale like to play football so I don’t see this being anymore of a rough house game than palace next week. Obviously sensible thing is to rest kane. But in his mind he has 15-20 games to get 17 goals. If they hadn’t put a new pitch down I’d have said no way. But with a new pitch and a decent style of football it wouldn’t bother me.

I don't think KWP needs to start seeing as he is third choice FB on either side. He would have benefitted from a year's loan to toughen up a bit.
I think it would be good to give Trippier a chance to keep his legs active after sitting out the last one.

Like this and probably what I would go for, but I can see Sissoko starting instead of Lamela. In fact, I would be surprised if Sissoko doesn't start.

Guaranteed starters (if fit) are: Vorm, Toby, Rose, Foyth, Winks, Wanyama, Moura, Sissoko.
Kane will most likely play as he did against AFCW and Newport (A), and I'd expect Trippier to start as he was rotated. So, filling in the gaps:
Subs: Gazzaniga, Sanchez, KWP, Dier, Eriksen, Dele, Llorente.
Stronger bench than should be required, but fuck fitting in a return leg if they get a draw. Finish them off on Sunday.

Some Rochdale hacker will fancy putting one on Kane. I wouldnt risk starting him.

Yes and I expect the players will feel the same.....dangerous.
