[Albion] Chelsea vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Who is right wing then?

Possibly 4-3-3 with Hinsh, Baleba and Wieffer in midfield with Rutter, Welbeck and Mitoma as a front 3.

 

[Mancgull]

Wonder whether Rutter will play wide right and JH in the number 10 role and coming back to help out Baleba and Weiffer. Ferdi at right back.

 

[Mustafa II]

Van Hecke is a huge loss today.

Still, a very exciting lineup.

Looking forward to seeing Ferdi, Wieffer and Georginio start - I predict these three will be shit hot in their positions over time. Hopefully they can put in great performances today.

 

[The Fits]

Looking a bit silly not buying any CBs, already.

 

[martin tyler]

Assume Hinch RB ferdi RW and Rutter at 10. Wider sitting balaba the box to box player

 

[saafend_seagull]

Why wasn’t van Hecke in training wed and Thu? Definitely losing without him

Half true so far

 

[Triggaaar]

Who is right wing then?

Jack or Ferdi

 

[Albion my Albion]

Remember we have games we should win & then draw. Then we have games we should lose and what have we done?

 

[Mancgull]

What do we think it is then?

Verbruggen
Ferdi - Dunk - Webster - Pervis
Baleba - Wieffer
Rutter - Hinsh - Mitoma
Welbeck

??

That’s what I think although JH could be playing RB, Rutter no10, and Ferdi RW and coming back to help Jack H.

 

[kevo]

Oh well. A nice day out I guess and at least I won't have to bother with MOTD

 

[Clive Walker]

JP injured
Veltnan sick
Adingra injured

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

 

[Hometownglory]

Wieffer and Baleba in the centre.

The battle against Caicedo will be fascinating.

I see a red card in this game.

 

[Bodian]

Adingra "minor" injury
Van Hecke "injured". Does that mean 'not minor'?

 

[de la zouch]

Adingra "minor" injury
Van Hecke "injured". Does that mean 'not minor'?

Exactly my thought, so Adingra 3 weeks and JPVH back for Christmas

 

[ElectricNaz]

Verbruggen
Hinsh, Webster, Dunk, Estupinan
Wieffer, Baleba
Kadioglu, Rutter, Mitoma
Welbz

That's how I think it'll be

 

[chickens]

Am not liking Van Hecke being injured, though Webster’s not a bad understudy. Will be interested to see how we get on today, for all the chaos around Chelsea over the past two years, they seem to be the ones with a settled team for today.

 

[WATFORD zero]

I can official confirm Lamptey has a twin.

A tall blonde dutch one

 

[Sussexscots]

Milner's minor injury has already turned into a month. Similar to his minor injury at the start of the year when he never featured again.

Van Hecke is a huge miss. Have to hope whatever ails him is not serious.

 

[ElectricNaz]

JP injured
Veltnan sick
Adingra injured

Hope Adingras injured. Not in a bad way and hope he's back soon because he's amazing when firing. Just gives a lot more context/reason behind his lazy arsed shit show last week rather than "he couldn't be bothered"
