Hoskins getting a run out again and Spanish Dave gets a chance - good to see

 

[WhingForPresident]

Afternoon lads, hope you're all well.

Good to see Lopez get a run-out and it's another big chance for Hoskins to show that he's got it. Think we'll be far better in the final third with an attacking CM than Hammond, as long as Lopez is actually decent which wouldn't really be fair to judge right now.

Going to go with 3-2 Albion. Buckley, Hoskins, CMS.

 

[Weststander]

Albion: (4-3-3) Kuszczak; Calderon, Greer, El-Abd, Bridge; Bridcutt, Crofts, Lopez; Buckley, Mackail-Smith, Hoskins. Subs: Brezovan (GK), Dunk, Hammond, LuaLua, Harley, Barnes, Dobbie.

Oh no, missing from the starting 11:

Bruno
Orlandi
Hammond

At least 'easy target' Barnes can't get the blame if we fail to win at home.

We will win so it won't be an issue.

Heart 1-0, Head 1-1

Then again I'm loving that 11 we named so if we ever get a massive win, I'd LOVE it to be today. Reckon they might get a red today as well. If we're 1-0 (Hoskins 23rd minute) up with 65% posession against 10 men....... what are the chance of Sharpe scoring in the 88th minute?

So much for my bet i reckon Hammond & 2-2

Reasonably happy with line up. Would still like to see Agdestein get a place on the bench though.

Yep, somehow it's always his fault, apparently.

Changes sound fine to me...Lopez to get a chance in the hole after Dobbie was poor last game, Calde in for the injured Bruno, Crofts in for Hammond who's been under par recently. Fair enough IMO.

Good to see Lopez get a start, although I'd agree with the opinion that it would be nice to see Toby on the bench. 3-1 to the Albion

 

[Frutos]

Looks like a good lineup to me, glad to see Lopez get a start and Hoskins another opportunity.

3-1 today I reckon, CMS, Buckley and Lopez

come on you super seagulls

 

[sjamesb3466]

Come on the Albion, like the line-up today, lets hope it works!

 

[brakespear]

c'mon Albion

 

[Saltydog]

Is their goalie any good? With a name like that could fit in nicely at the Amex......

 

[Marxo]

All digits crossed, come on you super seagulls!

 

[Buckley's Mad Eye]

Free header for Calde from a Lopez corner. Good to see decent delivery even if the finish was missing.
