Do you want Rhian Brewster to play on Tuesday?
Yes
No
The 19-year-old is an England U21’s international player and is currently valued by Transfermarkt at £3.60m. Clearly the fans rate him as a young talent, with many of them wanting him to play on Tuesday.

What Do We Think?
Rhian Brewster being just 19-years-old means he has plenty of time to gain first-team minutes, so perhaps the club should be focusing on getting him back to full fitness, rather than rushing him back into the squad for a cup game, because getting multiple injuries when you’re still in your teens is not a good look.
