Norway rationed the nine. England didn't ration the spine.

Haaland got sixty-seven minutes and a rest. Anderson and Guéhi started all four. Anfield is Sunday.

Norway took Haaland off at 67 minutes against Portugal by plan. Reuters says he flew straight out for a brief holiday before returning to club duty.

England went the other way with City's middle. Elliot Anderson and Marc Guéhi were, with Harry Kane, the only England players to start all four Nations League matches. Nico O'Reilly started the first one and then went home.

English desks are counting who got hurt. The graph counts who got tired. City go to Anfield on Sunday 11 Oct at 16:30 BST top of the table, five wins from five, with the appeal still open. The rested legs are up front. The four-start legs are at the base of midfield and in the centre of defence.

Liverpool's list is the injured kind. Isak left Sweden after one game, Gakpo hurt his ankle against Serbia and Jacquet missed France's 4-1 win over Belgium with a left hamstring strain.

See what others miss.
