Seems like we are resting our key players like KDB and Haaland today. Makes little to no sense to me, Southampton on Wednesday is a much easier fixture than Chelsea and is being played just 3 days before the derby. Would have made a lot more sense to rest some players in that game imo, especially considering I also rate the FA Cup higher than Carabao Cup. But we should win today either way :)

Plenty of rotation.

Unsure on the back 4.

Thought he'd rest Rodri.
