I'd go the other way, start Lankshear against Gala and try to save Dom for the league game.I'd start Dom on Thursday in a tough away game and start Lankshear next Sunday v Ipswich at home with Dom on the bench just incase.
Lanks has enough about him to play well in the euro games and the Ipswich game, while easy on paper, is massively important and the type of game we are capable of switching off for.
If needed, bring Dom in for half an hour against Gala but there's no way we should be starting him for me.
With Richy out, we need to use the kids and if Lanks is considered good enough to be in the squad, this is exactly the time we need to use him.
He needs the game time too.
