I would have thought so. Wharton at Palace could be the wild card.

Would he go Trent at centre mid?

With Walker at RB and Trippier able to cover both full back positions we can free Trent into centre mid with Rice and Bellingham just ahead.

Foden, Kane, Saka as a top 3 but let Foden drift everywhere and do what he wants basically.

No Shaw or Chilwell, who on earth plays Left Back? Potentially Trent to shoehorn him in and means he can move into the midfield easier when in possession?

 

Trippier will be left back, Walker on the right.

Believe Trippier is also injured and Reece James isn't fully fit so full back is an issue!

Didn't Trippier play some minutes against Brentford, or has he got a new injury? Cannot rely on James at all sadly.

Absolutely. 

Shame Scott is nowhere near the squad.

Dunno what has happened to Scott

It's only a year and a half ago Blackburn fans were saying he absolutely schooled Wharton and showed him how to play CM

No thanks, always got a mistake in him.

Equivalent of a modern day Phil Neville imo.

Think a lot of our defenders have mistakes in them!

If you are talking about Alex Scott, he's barely 20 and had a few injuries. Give him a couple more years at least!

Was chatting with @Davefevs yesterday about Wharton & Scott. 
Based on their quite similar minutes played in the Prem this season, Scott actually outperforms Wharton in most of the metrics. I think the injuries hampered him and he lost his place and lost any exposure. But his stats rank him above Wharton. 
I like them both. In fact I like them both more than I like Mainoo so far.

Feel free to scroll on by, or if your eyes hurt.

I like both players, Wharton at Blackburn, I saw as the closest ability wise to Scott last summer…whether Scott schooled him at Ewood Park or not in 22/23.

But I do think there is some perception of Wharton (fine young player as he is) that is helped by the recent form / return of Eze, Olise and Matete in an exciting Palace team of late.

Both should be aiming to be part of the next major tournament in 2026.

+++++

We will see if Wharton gets in from the provisional squad.
