    or

    I have Siggy who rotates with Bojan pretty much each week, or would have to play Siggy every week but have Jovetic instead of Bojan

      Jovetic early on because Soldado has a chance of being Pochettino's first choice striker.

      Caulker because he is Caulker and Isla isn't Caulker, simple.
