Enzo Maresca has started to blur the lines a bit between the “A” and “B” lineups in the squad, with Pedro Neto and Romeo Lavia, for example, in the starting XI at the weekend and players like Enzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella suddenly only start during the week. It remains to be seen whether these changes will last beyond a game or two, but it’s good to know that the manager will adapt when he sees fit (and not just when injuries or suspension force him to act) .

It’s a similar situation for the WAGNH community, as the aforementioned Enzo and Cucu get the nod for today, having only started on the bench last time (although that may be obvious given Sunday’s decisions).

The rest of the line-up is more in line with the usual ‘B’ squad, with Axel Disasi (55%) out despite receiving more than half the votes, likely forcing Cucurella into the right-back role? We’ll see if Maresca decides to do something similar. (At this point, Malo Gusto received a non-negligible 40% as a more natural solution.)

4-2-3-1 (83%)
Jorgensen (94%) | Veiga (66%), Badiashile (76%), Tosin (86%), Cucurella (61%) | Dewsbury Hall (64%), Enzo (82%) | Mudryk (81%), Felix (88%), Sancho (80%) | Nkunku (93%)

Of those not seen often, Ben Chilwell (18%), Cesare Casadei (13%) and Carney Chukwuemeka (11%) reached double figures.
