I don't think there's much basis at the moment to remove either Defoe or Niko from the side after one scored last week and the other was key in two goals. Vdv, who might still no be 100%, is a first choice ordinarily, but I'd see him on the bench tomorrow and ease him back in by bringing him on and starting him v Stoke. If he stays fit, and outshines Defoe and Niko, let him start against Wigan.
