Even if Mooy is fit, please leave Stephens out of the squad completely.

Solly played for 45 mins last night for the u23s so I'd expect to see him somewhere (probably on the subs bench)

A lot of people are showing a back four. Is this a preference for a formation change as I thought we played with a back 3 for most of this season?

I just don't see any value in it when you're playing against a team with one striker. There's absolutely no need for it and we always look far better balanced when we've got a more conventional back 4. I would say we've played more games with a back 4 than 3 at the back, but it might be pretty close. It's fluid within a game, depending on who is in the team. Take the Burnley game for example, Webster moved to right back in a 4 man defence but that had a lot to do with Solly March having started as a right wing back. ??? Which, obviously, wasn't successful.
