I'd go unchanged if Bruno is fit.
Although I think Tomori is more than capable of filling in, I wonder whether someone like Sidwell could offer cover in that position if we're really struggling for cover? He's experienced, tactically astute, physical, and can see a pass. A bit like a budget...
That was an exceptional performance tonight. Not one player had a bad game. On that basis, bar Stockers who had nothing to do, 8's at least all around:
Stockdale - 7 - Didn't have anything to do, and took no unnecessary risks with his distribution.
Bruno - 8 - Linked up well with Knockaert in...
I fully predict that 90 will probably not be enough this year. Expecting 90 to be enough, is expecting Huddersfield to tail away and lose a bit of form in my opinion. If they maintain roughly their 2 point per game average (and they've been surpassing this lately), they'll be on 90 points. Given...
"Brighton's entire team on Tuesday had a value less than that of Newcastle's Aleksandar Mitrovic alone."
Just goes to show how well we are doing to be competing so closely with such an expensively put together team. Mitrovic didn't even get on the pitch!
If the choice was either to play the match, or don't play the match and take a draw, then you play the match and go for the win. If I recall correctly, we have a good recent record vs Newcastle at the Amex, and we owe them for the 3 points they picked up against us at their place.

Every time a player on my sons under 9 team scores a goal, the dab will reliably make an appearance. I believe that Pogba may have been one of the early adopters and helped popularize it, now everyone's doing it!
He has always been a great team player and very clever in the way he pulls defenders out of position for other players to exploit. I've been one of his admirers for a long time despite him not contributing too much on the goal front... a bit like Ashley Barnes mark II in that regard.
The...
I don't think 10 points would be all that bad, some very tricky games there. Would bite your hand off for 2 points per game, which would in my opinion give us more than enough points to see us being promoted.
They've not been steam rolling teams though by any means (apart from us!). This month alone, they have scored winners in the last 10 minutes of three separate games. If you extend that to December onwards, they have scored late winners in 5 matches and got a last minute equaliser at home to...
The same Hippos that are so hard they get scared off and intimidated by lonesome Honey Badgers?

There are other examples of Honey Badgers taking out Cobra's, Monitor Lizards etc., which could be deemed equally as impressive as a GM taking on a centipede.
Also I don't believe the centipede would class as an Apex predator!
