At least there will be two familiar faces \u2013 Willy Boly and Morgan Gibbs-White, who played for Nuno at Wolves.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I have never managed a squad of this size,\u2019 said Nuno. \u2018That\u2019s a challenge for us as well but it\u2019s a new chance for everyone, like the players who have not played regularly before.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018I want everyone to be involved and to be committed so we can have more options.
