CB – Eric Bailly

Bailly

Lindelof’s back injury means Bailly could well be given another chance to start in the centre of defence, and many fans would now probably favour the Ivorian as first-choice alongside Maguire.

The 26-year-old’s all-action style does get him into trouble at times but if you need someone to put in a tackle or make a flying block, then he is certainly the one to turn to.
