      your choice but beware of the fact that it's likely that neither Mendy nor mkhi will start so it'll either be a cameo from Mkhi (still not necessarily bad vs everton), or Stephens vs Spurs.

      One possibilty (or for free next GW) is Mkhi+Stephens --> Fraser + Schürrle (you should have funds for that, right?)
