Sam Allardyce is still counting his lucky stars that he gets to take over a team with more points, 15, than games played, 14, and after watching the midweek win which made it so, is happy to have Oumar Niasse, Michael Keane and a full bench available to help offset fatigue. David Wagner says facing a new manager isn’t a ‘major problem’ as everybody is aware how he usually sets up. Mark Tallentire
