Certainly, it will be a touch match today.
Based on last match vs AS Monaco, Dele lacked physicality in the middle for the first half. So, I think starting Wanyama along with Dele would be a wise decision.
Although I would love to see Sonny as a CAM, but I also wouldn't mind seeing Sonny up top and Janssen subbed later. We also have Onomah, who just scored his first against Gillingham, available for a sub. Winks would be a good candidate for the final third in place of CAM. Not to mention that N'koudou is eager to play. Wimmer can be an option for a sub as well.
Since everyone on our Starting XI just had a weekend game and flew to Russia, they've got to be exhausted. I am hoping Lamela to step up this time like he did vs Gillingham.
On the same note, I feel like Poch may be using Lamela to shine in the Champions League and other Cups, while using Son to shine in the Premiere League. Just a thought.
