I guess I'm not 100% certain how minor his injury really is but that's just the pessimist in me. I'm sure we'll see him play before the end of October.
As far as I can tell, Pervis is fit, having played 85 minutes on Saturday and 87 minutes on Tuesday for Ecuador. But if anything that's a case for resting him as he's only just come back from injury.
I'd be happy to start Rutter and bring Pedro off the bench, keeping in mind Georginio can be deployed as a CF or SS and won't be available for selection against Wolves next week.
What is the nature of Wieffer's injury again? It was supposedly minor but he's been out of commission for several weeks now. Also, any news re Gruda beside the fact he's back on the grass again?
I'd rather play Ferdi at LB given our paucity of options there, deploy Hinsh or Veltman on the right, and go with Baleba and Ayari in midfield, personally.
Apologies if fixtures but appears that by his own admission Moder missed our first few games of the season after seemingly knowingly playing through injury during the Euros. Says here that Fabi asked him to stay at Brighton and fight for a place...
