    I disagree. I think Lens is not to be underestimated at all but we need every edge we can get against City. If that means risking a loss so be it. Ramsdale, ESR, Nelson, Trossard (given rumours he’s fit), Vieira, Jorginho, Kiwior, Tomiyasu are all very solid players and will do fine rotated in. Don’t mind Jesus playing though, or Zinny and Saliba.

      We should aim to win every game, of course, but this game won’t matter if we win some of the other ones, and either way means much less than the City game.

      I would rest Saka, Zinny, and Saliba. Nelson starts for Saka, Kiwior for Zinny, and Tomiyasu for Saliba. Sub out Jesus, White, and Rice by halftime or a little after. An early lead would give us time to rotate in a few more players. ESR and Nelson could join the mix later in the game. Dropping points might be detrimental, and Sevilla could regain their form in time to knock us off the top of the table.
