I have a feeling Curtis was played with that Villa game in mind. Of the 3 CB's he is best equipped to keep an in form forward quiet and IMO yesterday was used for some match fitness.

Looking at last season I don't recall many of the 'named' forwards giving Davies the run around. He can control and play the forward out of the game. Tomori looks a player but strikes me as more of a zonal defender than a specific man marker. Great covering pace.

Keogh is Keogh, always going to get 100%. My slight niggle is that for every man of the match he gets he has a potential slip up in his locker.

If he's deemed fit then for me Davies starts. Almost an argument for a back three?
