Injuries and team for Middlesbrough?

Kante has picked up a knock during training and Luiz sustained a groin injury in the last match. We have two games this week. Given our inexperience with fixture congestion due to lack of European football this season, what should we do? Should we rotate? If they're fit should they be risked? What a dilemma. Thoughts?

3 games in 7 days. I'd let the kid Fabregas play, see what he can do.

i think both will play. Luiz has played through injury for months this season. I'd personally risk them this Monday and if we win the game we can rest them in the tougher away game at WB.

The other way round?

Courtois
Azpi Terry/Ake Cahill
Moses Fabregas Chalobah Alonso
Pedro Hazard
Costa


Save Kante and Luiz for West Brom away, risking further damage in (easy) home match against 'Boro.
Spurs result makes decision to rest them easier.

*risking further damage in (easy) home match against 'Boro is stupid.

Ideally Luiz & Kante are fresher for West Brom away without any niggles, to secure title.

Boro are virtually down....they aint gonna be interested in going toe to toes with us on a Monday night

No reason Ake shouldn't fill in for Luiz....so JT will play

Fab will start next to Matic & we'll over run them
