Not the simplest team selection for Pep. Talk will naturally be of which youngsters start today, but there are lots of senior players who could do with a good game.. Jack Grealish, Phil Foden, Jeremy Doku, Ilkay Gundogan, Matheus Nunes, Kyle Walker, and Ederson could all do with a performance that puts them back in the frame to start the more important games this month.. That’s seven out of 11 spots already, and you could make a case for more. The other player who really needs a start is James McAtee. If he doesn’t start today, he can’t expect to start any game this season and may as well leave.
