I know I'm in the minority on here, BUT!
I see know reason to start him today or next week against Newcastle,
Let's try somebody that wants to be with us next season in that position,
These final two games of the season should be about future planning,
Let's give the likes of Oscar Bobb and Samuel Chukwueze given the opportunity to play in their preferred position,
It's not even like Harry is in scintillating form at the moment is he ?
Bench him. Not on the basis that he's probably leaving but because he's been ineffective lately. And also because we definitely need to see Chuck playing in his preferred position. It's a no brainer to me.
Its a must win game to have any chance of achieving something more than survival. So we should play our best players. Based purely on form - bench him.
Chukwueze has been totally off the boil recently...
He would be the very last person that I would include in the full matchday squad at this point. Obviously he is not keen on getting injured, he is definitely on his way out, his form for the last few games has been terrible. I can not for the life of me understand why anyone at all would argue for him to start.
So Marco will definitely start him.

And Wilson has been too. But, imo, Chukwueze looked good in moments in which he switched to the right side during recent matches, so I too would give him a chance there, with Iwobi/Kevin on the left.
I agree with those who have said that he doesn't deserve to start based off performance rather than on him potentially leaving the club.
I'd leave him out of the squad. We're planning for next season. These players need to realise they're not bigger than the club.
I noticed Howe has dropped Gordon as he appears to be off to Bayern
If the future is Oscar Bobb on the right then why are we considering paying in excess of £20 million for Samuel Chukwueze?
With Silva seemingly on his way out it'll be interesting to see whether or not we continue with this deal.
Well Silva preferred Bobb on the right ahead of Chuck so I guess that tells us something.
Before today, I was leaning towards wanting him to stay, after today, I'm leaning towards wanting him to leave.
He's been a huge player for Fulham ever since he's come here, but I feel like all this dilly-dallying over his contract has affected his performances hugely and to a lesser extent the team's performance as well. He's been quite poor for a while (after a period during which he was one of the best players in the league).
Today when he came on he was selfish on a couple of occasions and his final ball and shooting was just poor. He's obviously not the main reason we lost, far from it, but his recent performances, and particularly his performance today have really frustrated me.
Play Wilson because 3 points could be worth upto £15 million, which is the prize money difference between 9th to 14th. Obvious that depends on other teams a little.
In addition, if Fulham get £15 million that is £15 million less combined for Chelsea, Everton, Leeds, Newcastle and Sunderland (ie £3 million less each).
Either Fulham getting prize money or our competitors getting less will help us do better the next few seasons and maybe mean we get more prize money in 26/27, 27/28 and 28/29.
