It is very very very rare for a player to be rested for no reason, or even because of past injuries. Whilst player management is vital to September success I am amused at the amount of people who want players rested because they have had past injuries. If a player is right to play, they play. If they are sore, or some particular environmental factor leads the club to believe they are at risk of an injury (i.e. returning from recent stress fractures and having to play on concrete somewhere) then yes the player might be rested as a precaution. But you dont rest players just because last season or two seasons ago they had particular problems.
We will not rest Chapman, SJ, Ling, Scarlett, Ottens or any other player just for fun. It makes no sense at all.
Thanks
