After seeing how much of an added dimension (although rusty) Doherty gave to us as RWB why on earth would you go back to Royal straight awayEmerson will 100% play.

Doherty has played naff all football this season. Its a bit of a stretch for him to play this game, and then the Everton one - three games in one week.After seeing how much of an added dimension (although rusty) Doherty gave to us as RWB why on earth would you go back to Royal straight away

Royal can play, if we are chasing the game or need a goal by all means bring Doherty on later. Not to mention Conte clearly rates and trusts Royal, it would be more of a shock if he wasnt picked....
Yet the previous match Frankfurt beat top of the table Berlin 2-0 so must be awesome based on that logic, right?Why wouldn’t you play Spence?
If he can’t play at home in his favoured position of rwb against a crap team like Frankfurt, who just got thumped 3-0 by bottom of the league Bochum then I don’t see when he can play apart from matches in the early rounds of domestic cups IF we draw the likes of Grimsby Town and Crawley Village.

Royal is first choice whether you like it or not, so with that in mind it makes perfect sense to play him in these European games whilst suspended from the league in order to keep his levels up so that he can slot back in once his suspension is over. Doherty looks like he is first back up atm so he should get the 3 game league run in order to show whether or not he's up to an extended run beyond the 3 games. Unfortunately for Spence he's clearly out of the reckoning atm and has to bide his time.
When picking our team for a game surely we are here to discuss what WE would do?
What is the point of us all just second guessing what team we think Conte will pick!
That’s easy and not a lot of point doing it but as that is apparently what we should be doing please find my contribution to this requirement below.

Discuss what you want but you and marky were both asking why we wouldn't play Spence/go back to playing Royal in the CL - I've explained why
So you are just a miniature Conte like those bobble heads?
Might as well rename the whole forum from Glory Glory to Conte Conte.
