On bench

Bruno and Burns.

I would have liked Bruno to start.

It makes sense not to throw him in at the deep end - he’s never kicked a ball in english football.
As for Burns, Howe might think that 2 debuts in defence might be pushing it.

Howe just said pre-match that Bruno has only had one training session which is why he's not starting

Burns has a septic toe apperently and not been able to train fully all week.

Could come on at a push but don't want to risk a start was my intepretation.
