WAYNE Rooney has identified five Plymouth Argyle players who could be used to replace Ibrahim Cissoko during his three-match suspension.
Mustapha Bundu and Callum Wright would appear to be the most likely choices for the wide left attacking role but Rooney has also mentioned Rami AI Hajj, who has been deployed in a central 'number 10' role since joining the Pilgrims, as well as two exciting young talents, Freddie Issaka and first-year apprentice Tegan Finn.
Cissoko was sent-off late in the first half of Argyle's 5-0 defeat at Cardiff City on Saturday, by which stage they were already trailing by two goals. He reacted angrily to the ball being kicked at him by Ng while he was on the ground after being fouled.
