Southampton vs. Chelsea, Premier League: Preferred lineup

The big question coming into this game is how and how much will Enzo Maresca rotate his squad from the weekend. If this were another game, in a domestic or European cup, he might shuffle his entire deck as usual and make 10-11 changes.

But this game is a Premier League game! And that's under the purview of the same players who played on Sunday, and will likely play next weekend, too, away to Spurs. So that could very well see some Premier League action for some of our "B" squad today.

This question posed a dilemma for the WAGNH Community, too, with the voting a lot more spread out, especially in the attacking positions where we find eight players all between 34% and 68% of the vote. That's Jadon Sancho and Cole Palmer, respectively, with six others in between that range. Very close indeed!

4-2-3-1 (75%)
Sánchez (63%) | Cucurella (84%), Colwill (82%), Badiashile (58%), Gusto (78%) | Enzo (74%), Caicedo (81%) | Nkunku (49%), Palmer (68%), Madueke (57%) | Jackson (57%)

João Félix (44%), Pedro Neto (43%), and Mykhailo Mudryk (38%) just miss out, as does Tosin Adarabioyo (52%) in defense. Roméo Lavia got 39% to lead the rest.
