Wouldn't watch Greenwood (or if it's going to be a Jeffrey Dahmer-thingie) but still looking forward to this. I'm a bit of a hypocrite.

Always good to start against one of the little teams.
Who will play right back today?
Hopefully someone who can cope with the pace, power and height of Doucouré and Calvert-Lewin as they pull into space on the flanks looking for the long ball.
We can rule out the right back in the 1-5 mauling playing in the same position (game or club).
Will we have a better team today?

The Joel Veltman guy from the 4-1-win the same season seems a good and likely candidate to me.

I'm just hoping we haven't bought a Ferrari and handed the keys to Stevie Wonder.
Hope everyone enjoys the trip. Apart from the f******s who've put up stickers on the train that read On The Charge with Farage over an Albion badge and, worse, a picture of Fab H raising a beer in a pose clearly intended to echo a Nazi salute. Superimposed on a German flag with BHAFC written in a fascist-style font

To follow on, it seems that some Evertonians already think we’re reasonable people. This is a paragraph from the preview on Everton forum, Grand Old Team:
“Usually there’ll be some pantomime jibing of oppositions in previews I occasionally type but I like Brighton. Maybe influenced by the zen state I find myself returning to football in but Brighton are alright, and alright is desirable in a league of unfortunate scruffy try hards devoid of genuine wit or redeeming collective qualities. Brighton is a cool place with easy humans and that makes my job to cruelly typecast them all the harder. Their community came together to repel recent social unrests which was a pleasant change. It’s good to be alright, alright is definitely aspirational. It’s loads harder to be a prick than alright which is why I’m unforgiving on those who go to all that effort to be a prick to others. Just be alright. We have a word for it in our city and it’s a really super aspirational model, that word is “sound”. Being sound means you’re a good person and company. You’re amicable and dependable. You’ll have friends, kiss more of the people you want, have more doors of opportunity open if you’re just sound. And anyone can be sound, as not everyone can be the funniest, the hardest, the craziest, the best looking or shape, but anyone can be sound. And it’s really easy. I hope more and more people in my city and on this island choose to just be sound. Celebrate sound people. Not pricks, even if their output is sadly hard wired for rubber necking in how we communicate too often these days on social media. Well in Brighton, for being sound.”
It would be nice to collectively improve our attitude towards Liverpudlians too. I’ve spent quite a lot of time there and love the place. Thanks.
Hope everyone enjoys the trip.

I hope you ripped it down. Farage's face and a BHAFC badge is not something I want to see together.

Sad to see that even our great club has these brainless racist bustards.

Interesting explanation of FH's tactics. I am now offically excited.
Watched that the other day. It's useful knowing what to look out for. How well the philosophy will translate to a quicker, stronger league is the question. Hopeful from his pronouncements so far that Hurzeler will adapt accordingly. He seems less dogmatic than De Zerbi.
