No starters but....
Pau Torres was signed in 2023 summer transfer window and came on in the first game at newcastle when Mings was hacked  down.

"On 11 January 2023, 29-year-old Moreno joined Premier League club Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee, signing a three-and-a-half-year deal; he was given the number 15 shirt. He made his league debut two days later, replacing the injured Lucas Digne early into an eventual 2–1 home win over Leeds United

Same even with Rashford and Asensio so I do wonder if Douglas Luiz will start even with his past connection.
