Travelling squad: Howard, Robles, Griffiths, Alcaraz, Browning, C.Duffus, Coleman, Gibson, Jagielka, Stones, Lukaku, Naismith, Oviedo, Mirallas, McCarthy, Garbutt, Barkley, Besic, Barry, Atsu.
 
We can't simply play our first choice players in each of the next five games. To get the best possible return, we'll have to spread the load across the whole squad. Barry is suspended for 1 PL game, and I assume Lennon isn't registered for the Europa League.

There is an almost infinite number of variations, but - trying to play people in their natural positions - we could start something like this;

Young Boys; Robles/Coleman Jagielka Stones Oviedo/Barry McCarthy/Mirallas Barkley McGeady/Kone

Leicester; Howard/Coleman Jagielka Stones Baines/Besic McCarthy/Mirallas Naismith Lennon/Lukaku

Regular players like Coleman, Jagielka and McCarthy will benefit from a rest too. The team for the return match with Young Boys will depend upon the score in the first leg. We can rest some players in the Arsenal game and turn out our best available team against Stoke.

Both of these aren't in the squad mate however I agree with you that rotation is important.

Think it could be Atsu who gets a game tomorrow with Lukaku up front.
