On today's interesting selection... could it be that Sam is thinking towards next season and believes that Yokulsu and Gallagher could possibly stay on?

Or am I reading far too much into it and it's simply that Diagne was dropped for being late to training or something?

Grady starting with Maitland-Niles on the bench is what really had my cogs turning. Grady back seems very much geared around setting up for next season, but I was really surprised about Gallagher being selected over AMN in the middle of the park unless there's more to it. AMN has always been higher on the pecking order, but he's clearly the loanee who is most out of reach. Gallagher seems to be between Championship and Premier League standard at the moment, so maybe if he wants guaranteed football next season he'd be better coming back here than going to somewhere like Palace where he might be in and out of the team. Who knows. Probably just my analysis paralysis taking over.
