The team news for today’s trip to Old Trafford to play Manchester United is in, and the surprising news is the inclusion of Gerard Deulofeu for a rare start in the second half of this season.
The Spanish winger was a regular in the first half of the campaign, and arguably one of our best players setting up a series of goals for Romelu Lukaku, but has barely been used since.
Besic is the man to make way for Deulofeu with the blues going with two wingers this afternoon, in other news Funes Mori is dropped for the return to the side of John Stones and Joel Robles continues in goal.
Full team: Joel, Baines, Jagielka (c), Stones, Coleman, Cleverley, McCarthy, Lennon, Barkley, Deulofeu, Lukaku
Subs: Howard, Oviedo, Kone, Mirallas, Niasse, Besic, Funes Mori.
