The problem is that Murray is a Man Utd fan - he's probably dreamt of playing at Old Trafford, pretty much like most professional footballers. If Hughton rests him, he's likely to be properly stroppy by the time the NigeIs roll in. Give him a half, then bring Hemed on.
Yep. As a professional, you can imagine those are the games they all want to play in, not the NigeIs up the road. I'm glad I'm not the manager this week, frankly.
I'd definitely start March at OT and drop Knocky. We need goal threats from as many outlets as possible, and March provides that, moreso than Knocky at the moment IMO. Also, Mourinho is known for his thorough game planning. It doesn't matter how lowly the opposition is, he researches them...
