[Albion] Starting XI for Bournemouth

with Ferdi out and Estupinian potentially needing rest from the break, this might be an opportunity to get Solly back on the pitch as a wing back

i don't think he is anywhere near starting a premier league game.

Looks like ALL attackers available.

But

Ferdi , dunk , milner out

ayari , Hinshelwood not sure maybe not risked.

Centre mid looking a bit threadbare again. Maybe forced to start baleba and O'Riley.

FYI the club's write-up of the presser says that Dunk is available. The full quote from Fabian is: "Lewis has been training. Let's see how the next two days go, but he's close."

Anyone know when muffs press conference is?

They don't need to.

With the increasing number of matches until Xmas I think it’s very possible that Fab will start with Wieffer sooner rather than later. He improved during the course of the Everton match, with two interceptions leading directly to counter attack goals. After he was injured he’s mainly been brought on later in the second half and has struggled with the pace of the game and having to defend a lead. If Fab wants to develop him as a holding midfielder he’s better off starting and making way for Baleba, Atari or O’Riley in the second half if the game needs new energy.

Apologies to Ayari, it can seem like a video game of tactics these days…even to auto spelling checkers

Wieffer actually admitted as much the other day. He told the club website:

“Everybody is always telling you [English football is] really high intensity so it’s what I expected before,” he said. “But sometimes, especially if you come on in the middle of the game you feel as if it’s going really fast. If you start the game, you come into the rhythm more, but if you come on after sixty minutes, especially like at Liverpool, you really feel the intensity is high, you’re going up and down. “You come in and it’s the heat of the moment so you have to be there mentally straight away, that’s the main thing. Also in the last few games when that happened I had to defend a lot, against Newcastle and Tottenham we were in front when I came on so you have to cover and run a lot, but if that’s what I have to do then I’ll do it.

He was also excellent, replacing Baleba, v Spurs

JC will be disappointed with that elementary mistake.

That doesn't say he's available it says he's close !!

Looking forward to Veltman v Semenyo on a cold dark afternoon in the mud and the rain

It’s got the feel of quite a big game, Bournemouth could be tussling with us for a European spot come the end of the season, they’ve recruited well and have an astute manager guiding them. I think I’d be happy getting out of there with a draw. They’ll be starting fast so the lads will need to be on it from the first whistle.

Semenyo and Kerkez both completed all 97 minutes v Man City, and 98 minutes v Brentford, before THEN discovering they were too hurty to travel to play for Ghana and Hungary.

If I were a betting chap, I'd wager they just MIGHT recover in time for Saturday's game.

Iraola says: "Everyone who went with their national teams has come back available and healthy. [Antoine Semenyo] is similar to Milos [Kerkez], they are young and playing a lot of minutes. I think it's kind of a tendonitis [issue]. It's the only time he had to get treatment to try and solve a more chronic issue. I think they can continue playing with this, I hope it becomes better and better. I hope they can both play tomorrow."

Bollox. I wish we were less honest and held players back !!

Shock it sounds like they were just rested. Bit unfair in my opinion - so now they have 2 key players fresh and puts have been travelling. Typical plucky.

Typical of a lot of clubs. I guarantee this weekend that Palmer plays for that lot, Saka plays for Arsenal, Foden for City, etc. To be 'fair' we kept Baleba back and I reckon he'll start tomorrow.

I thought that there were rules to stop this, it seems that they've either changed or not implemented.
