If we end up in the Europa League, the likes of Parrott, Skipp and Roles (and other young talented players) should get those minutes and experience for those games. With our lack of depth and back to back injuries to key players, we really can't risk adding more travel fatigue and short turnarounds that the EL comes with.
Just Skipp imo. When everyone is fit we don’t have any trouble with depth and can virtually play x2 quality different Xi. Will everyone be fit in new year who knows but it’s possible. Plus the fact surely pochettino will see Europa as a cup we can win and it’s also a great safety net for CL qualification. Not sure we’ve been in it since it’s carried CL qualification. I think the orders from above maybe to take it more seriously than we have in past.
