Were it left to me, quite a lot of our players would get some experience on Monday night in Manchester.
Goal - Obviously Chapman.
RB - perm from Humphreys / Talbot / Graham, whoever needs the game most.
Centre backs - Raglan Captain, can Wood play, if so, he should.
Left back - Jones, is he available now or do I go Talbot or the Hump
Midfield is easy - Herd, Banks, O'Neil
Up front - Ariyibi, Simons, Dieseruwe
Formation? A flexible 4-3-2-1.

Why? BT, the need to blood players as starters, and giving as many of the usual starters enough relaxation so they've no excuse for losing at home to Oldham. And we might even still be good enough to win. But it's quite a big might.

Trust me if we sent out that team we would get beat by FC United they are no pushovers.

Lee
Jones
Raglan
Hird
Beesley
Ariyibi
Banks
Herd
O'Shea
Armand
Harrison

Possibly swap Harrison for Novak or Ebanks-Blake

Would be my selection playing in a 4-4-2
