Brighton & Hove Albion vs Leeds United *** Official Match Thread ***

[TonyW]

A manager that has finally realised.

Not sure how much longer JFC or Holla will here for the.

CMS is the most mobile of the three choices. Maybe we are going to try and keep it on the floor and pass it around. CMS to go wide and Tex to come inside and score. He has been doing that ok recently. Same for Baldock of course.

If that does not work we have the other options.

I would rather strikers were played as strikers...no wonder why they hardly score
Baldock is easily best through the middle and nothing else...Do managers not watch players previous footage to find out where their strengths are?
Wings are for wingers and in and around the box is for strikers

CH has said he knows how Baldock plays but he (Baldock) wants to play so he ends up playing on the wings .
I think if we are still in the championship next season we might see something different

We all hate Leeds scum!

 

[Stuart Munday]

Will there ever be a game that I can predict the starting lineup, I would of changed Best for O'Grady but expected no changes ,it seems whoever is in charge cannot play the same team twice.

 

[saafend_seagull]

Hopefully CMS on wing

We paid a a large fee for him as he has the attributes to score many in the right system...What is it with spending millions on strikers as we either put them on the wings or isolate them?You can see why we're not particularly good at scoring goals bar last sat.
Why do we fork out for ledesma and best and then sit them on the bench all the time...best is on 36k a week and we'll be paying half that grrrr...To be fair we royally Facked up on best as hes complete tripe.

There is NO CHANCE best was given a £38k a week salary in the championship. No chance. £20k tops.

I know - that hasn't happened for at least, er, what, 3 days?

It looks like there might be an (albeit Leeds) audio stream here if anyone who usually can't listen would like to.

 

[Hampster Gull]

Umm, odd. Hope it works but i struggle so see this unless cms wide and baldock in the middle. If the other way round then i would have preferred to have seen this type of experiment after we were safe. But fingers crossed

Hughton on his strikers: "good competition between the three of them"..... Best, O'Grady, Baldock, Mackail-Smith.

I make that 4 Chris!!!

He does not consider Baldock a striker to lead the attack.

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Come on you super seagulls

Agree with that. Nowhere near physical enough and not sufficiently skillful to make up for it. Holla also does not have sufficient mobility.

easy 3-0 to albion tonight
