Lerma offers more athleticism in the middle of the park and more pace, plus he's a salmon in the air. I'd have picked him over Hughes even if the latter had been fit. Eduoard is the odd one. He wasn't great when he went wide when Ayew came on last week. I do think he looks fitter and has been working harder, so hopefully he'll surprise us. I really hope Riad continues his preseason form and Guehi is inspired by getting the captain's armband.
A positive performance today is important whatever the result. I'd be happy with a well-earned point, but a win would shake off some of the gloom of the last week.
COYP!
