I thought the whole defence looked good tonight, Chicksen looks a very good understudy to Ward.

As I'm sure you would have assumed, I don't watch Brighton play a great deal, but from what I saw tonight I can see exactly how Bridcutt fitted into your team, you missed someone like him in there tonight I think. I was impressed by Upson and Ulloa, and Lua Lua could be decent if he learnt how to stand up for a bit longer.
For what it's worth I think you gave a decent account of yourselves though, good luck in the replay.

Because the first eleven would have beaten them. They were mostly shite.
He lost the ball far too much, his defending was better than his attacking tonight

On the bright side the kids did all right shame Ulloa couldn't have finished it off
Not too disappointed. Be tough going up to Hull but another opportunity for players to prove themselves. Also I don't know who Hull are playing before or after they might not be able to put out such a strong attack in the next game.

I'm sure that's right but it's still good to see him performing well against a decent team.

Good points being made about the youngsters/DS squad players really putting in a shift. Think bringing Rodriguez on instead of Obika might have been a smart move though.

We missed Crofts not Bridcutt.
Replay is next Monday. Even more reserves playing.

Monday 24th as UEFA have made a ridiculous rule that you can't play when the Champions League is on.

When they have premiership quality players and they are on the attack at the end of a pulsating game it is very difficult not to defend deep. We did very well for most of the game but I am afraid we decided to dive around looking for free kicks to slow the game down and we paid the price, if we stood up and put everyone behind the ball except Obika or Lua lua we may well have won that.
Ince was not at his best and Lua Lua is a very good impact sub.
I hope Buckley and Ulloa are ok.
Don't hold up much chance in the replay.

He went down far too easily too often. Needs to man up.

Agreed. Rodriguez is fast, which would have meant Hull having to defend a bit deeper. As it was we dropped deep and didn't have a quick front man to knock it over the top to.
Anyway, good experience for some of our younger players. Caskey, Chicksen, Ince and March when he came on were four of our better players I thought.
