[Albion] Team for Fulham (A) - Thursday 7.30pm

chaileyjem · Dec 4, 2024

Looks like the fit squad is - so this 20 or 21.

Verbruggen, Steele
Lamptey, JPVH, Igor, Dunk, Estupinan + Veltman (late test)
Moder, Ayari, Baleba, Wieffer, O Riley
Minteh, Mitoma, Adingra, Gruda
Georginho, Pedro, Enciso
Welbeck, Ferguson

Still out: Hinshelwood, Kadioglu, March, Milner.

Samuels and McConville also might be in there if Veltman injured.

Hurzeler confirmed that despite hobbling off on Friday - both Ayari and Mitioma are fit.

So i'm predicting a starting 11 of

Verbruggen
Veltman/Lamptey, Dunk JPVH Estupinan

-----------------Verbruggen
Veltman - Van Hecke - Dunk - Estupinan
---------------Baleba - O'Riley
--------Minteh - Rutter - Mitoma
-----------------Joao Pedro

Probably time for Dunk to come back but harsh on Igor who has been really good and there's been nothing between him and Van Hecke - in fact I think he's possibly been the better of the two in this recent run.

I would bring Minteh back in for his extra pace on the counter but also defensively against Robinson. I'd always play Rutter because I think he brings so much to the team and was one of our better players on Friday night. With games coming thick and fast in December and another game on Sunday, I would rest Welbeck for this one and play Joao Pedro up front with Rutter behind.

I think Fergie might start instead of Welbeck, but other than that this might be it. Veltman to start if fit.

Then Rutter, Ayari and Welbeck to come back in on Sunday.

Although fit I think Mitoma will start on the bench and come on for impact. So I agree with your team other than Pedro on the left side and Georginho at number 10

One definite …Fab in the stand

Cheggers · Dec 4, 2024

Carlos the Tackle. Right, I'm taking the rest of the morning off.

Why??

I heard Fab can actually play RB and is young enough to do it. Maybe he could play if enough of our best get nicked. Only he must do something about that hair cut. I heard people are fighting to get to the barber shops in Portslade.

I think Ferguson might start actually

I also think it’s time for a rest for Mitoma. Start him on the bench and give him the last 25 minutes.

Veltman/Lamptey * JPVH * Igor * Estupinan
'Out here in the fields'
Rutter * Ayari * Mitoma
Pedro

Dunk to come on for Igor on the hour - it's called easing him back in slowly. Tough on Ayari losing his midfield place, but it would be interesting to see him further forward; he and O'Riley could swap places if it's not working out. Give Welbeck a rest.
Samuels in the squad as cover for Estupinan.

Uh_huh_him · Dec 4, 2024

Verbruggen
Veltman JPVH Igor Estupinan
O'Riley Baleba
Georginho Pedro Mitoma
Welbeck

For now, this is our best 11 - O'Riley/Ayari And Dunk/Igor can be swapped with little impact.

Hopefully, Veltman is fit, we missed him on Friday.
This isn't a game for Lamptey.

Igor has done a job but suggesting he’s been better than JPVH recently is a bit of a stretch imo

Agree Rutter has to start……he’s been exceptional…..but on the wing. Give him an hour then lob Minteh on. Would stick with Danny and Joao for now.

It's spelled Baseball.

NorthstandRacoon · Dec 4, 2024

Balena to start in midfield as the only change for me. Am very nervous for tomorrow night, but looking forward to going.

Not sure O'Riley looked ready to start on Friday, I think Ayari is a more reliable choice atm. Ditto Rutter for Minteh but we have to begin to rotate, I guess. Also, really hope Veltman's fit but I'm guessing he's missing this one
