I'm sure this will split some opinion but I'm firmly in the camp that we should be protecting/resting our whole eleven, or practically all of them, to play Bournemouth. Even if we fielded our first eleven we are not going to recover from a 0-3 deficit to a team of this quality. We must ensure we give ourselves every chance of beating Bournemouth, given our run of games afterwards.
A few of the big hitters on the bench just in case - you never know sort of thing. Dier, Toby, Alli and Dembele given a complete night off. I'm sure Bentaleb won't start, but I'd like to see him do so just to see how he goes and if he's got the right attitude to give his all.
Lloris
Trippier
CCV
Wimmer
Davies
Carroll
Bentaleb
Onomah
Mason
Chadli
Son
Subs: Vorm, Walker. Rose, Winks, Lamela, Eriksen, Kane
