I would save Aurier and Vertonghen for United - i.e. don't risk a set-back here. I'd put Dier on the bench, if he is ready, and get him a short run-out in the 2nd half.Are we expecting any injured players back? Am I right in thinking Aurier is back in training? Maybe Vertonghen?
Was going to say exactly this. It’s not even about deserving at this point, we have to rest him n order to keep him sharp for the PL.Sissoko can not start this game. He has played throughout the Christmas period (brilliantly I might add) and is one of the first names in need of a deserved rest.
