Goalkeeper and Defence
GK – Robert Sanchez – the Spaniard has shown this season that he can play consistently well when he has the confidence of his manager. Rosenior needs to stop rotating his No. 1 and back Sanchez.
RB – Malo Gusto – after a strong performance in the Parc des Princes, the right-back will be looking to follow that up this weekend.
CB – Mamadou Sarr – Wesley Fofana rarely plays every three days, so we expect the 20-year-old to get the nod for the Newcastle fixture.
CB – Trevoh Chalobah – although he is the club’s most consistent centre-back, the club badly need another one of his ilk in the squad. Tosin Adarabioyo, Benoit Badiashile and even Fofana haven’t proven to be reliable enough.
LB – Marc Cucurella – after just coming back from a hamstring injury, the Spanish international may be asked to play three games in the space of a week.
