The 7 matches in 22 days will be tough but the Arsenal match is the only one extra to the rest of the division. Personally, I would play the team that won at Newcastle against Arsenal and play our best team in the other matches, probably resting Hutchinson against QPR & Brighton. After that we get a two week break again.
Out of interest, why would you rest Hutchinson in arguably the two most difficult games?
Hutchinson picks up injuries when he plays twice per week so in these runs of two games per week, we get more out of him by playing him in just one match per week. There are more league matches on weekends so he misses less matches if he is rested for midweek games.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

Would think we would need him for our toughest matches though
A tough one for Carlos and the medical team

Alternatively pick him for Brighton & QPR and rest him for Hull, Rotherham, Forest & Charlton but I would rather have him for four matches & rest him for two.
I suspect that CC will just keep picking him until he drops apart from the Arsenal match.

Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Wildsmith Called up to the U-21 squad. It's up to him now to make a name for himself. Great stuff and well done to the lad!
No doubt having a Keeper of Westwood's calibre is rubbing off on him.
