Amid all the e mails drama this morning one critically important question has remained unanswered – who’s gonna play on the left side of midfield against Huddersfield Town?

With Andre Ayew and Manu Lanzini injured and Marko Arnautovic serving out the last game of his suspension there is no naturally left sided player available.

So Slaven Bilic will need to be quite clever in how he sets up the team. On the other hand, the solution may be staring him in the face.

His name is Aaron Cresswell and given the circumstances it would be perhaps be a realistic move to stick him down the left in front of Arthur Masuaku.

Cressie is a player who looks better when attacking and looks a decent option given the lack of alternatives available to the boss.

With Edmilson Fernandes also injured we have revised our earlier line up and believe the Irons could look like this on Monday night: Hart; Zabaleta, Reid, Ogbonna, Masuaku; Antonio, Noble, Kouyate, Obiang, Sakho, Hernandez.
