Team for Reading

[El Turi]

Time for Kemy to step up to the plate? He did pretty well against Reading in the cup.

If he does play you'd link to think he'd go out there with a 'something to prove' attitude, which, with a player of his ability, often results in a match-winning performance (or 60 minutes in his case).

 

[Codner's Wallop]

BBC says both Ince and Orlandi are DEFINITELY out. Add to that Stephens.

Wilkins, Curbishley, Gatting, Wood are all playing. BTW, always liked Paul Wood as a player, bit under-rated?

Official Brighton FB page and Argos both say Ince is back. The bleeb are often wrog too, they even had Ward listed as a Midfilder a month ago on their site!

Oscar Garcia says a late decision will have to be made over Rohan Ince's fitness ahead of Reading's visit tomorrow but confirmed Andrea Orlandi [muscle] and Dale Stephens [knock] are out.

I was quoting what Oscar told The Argus this morning. The BBC site says something different entirely:

Brighton midfielders Rohan Ince and Andrea Orlandi are both sidelined with ankle and thigh injuries respectively.
Manager Oscar Garcia may hand a recall to Jake Forster-Caskey, while winger Will Buckley (hamstring) is available.
Reading defenders Wayne Bridge and Sean Morrison (both knee) have resumed training but are unlikely to feature.
Midfielder Mikele Leigertwood (ankle), striker Jason Roberts (hip) and winger Jem Karacan (cruciate) remain on the sidelines.

Suppose we'll find out for real in 24 hours and two minutes.

 

[JBenno]

So we could be looking at a midfield 3 of Andrews, Kemy and JFC tommorrow....

Argus saying late tests on Ince and Stephens. Orlandi a defo no.
If those 2 are fit
Tk, bruno, upson, greer, ward
Ince stephens
Buckley lingard march
Ulloa

If not

Same back 4
Andrews Lopez
Same front 4

Try an utilise LuaLua off bench as normal

 

[Munchkin]

Surely this has to be the time to revert to a 4-4-2 formation.....

----------------- Kuszczak -----------------
Bruno ------ Upson --- Greer ------- Ward
Buckley ---- Andrews -- Ince ------ David
------------ Lingard ----- Ulloa ------------

Can't really revert to something we never had in the first place.......!!

Given that most reports now suggest that both Orlandi and Stephens are definitely out, and that Ince might be, I think Oscar will go with a team like this:

Top Kat
Bruno Greer Upson Ward
Andrews Ince/JFC Lopez
March/Buckley Ulloa Lingard

Subs: Brez, Calde, Dunk, Agustein/JFC/Ince, March/Buckley, LuaLua, SD*2/Obika

I've never been JFC's biggest fan and up until last weekend I didnt think he was up to a starting spot yet. Saying that, at Millwall he was the only midfielder who actually looked like he could keep hold of the ball for 5 seconds and do anything remotely creative with it. Hopefully he will play today: just behind Ulloa with any 2 of Kaz/March/Buckley/Lingaard either side of him.

Never going to happen.
