[Albion] Cup Team against Frank Lampard’s Derby

[Hugo Rune]

I wouldnt bother with Kayal as we have nothing to learn about him and his ability

This game should be about the winning, not the learning!

I hope CH goes back to a 4-4-1-1 as he did in the replay at West Brom and goes with a strong line up. Watching first half of Ipswich v Derby they look good going forward but very open to the counter attack at the back. With no game for a while we should pick our strongest fit XI and look to show our quality.

I wouldnt bother with Kayal as we have nothing to learn about him and his ability and worth to the first team or Gyokeres as he is not ready for first team action for this season, so keep him for next season. We have to field a team that can gain confidence for the battles ahead in the league.

That’s a strange view...

This for me too. Locadia deserves a chance at 9 and we need to find a decent 10, so the record signing has to be given a go.

What has he done to deserve a chance at 9? Deserves a spot on the bench

A chance at 9, in an U23 game gets my vote.

That is correct so play either Stephens or Propper with Bissouma and Knockaert and Jahanbakhsh out wide. in a 4-4-1-1 as per my suggestion earlier in the thread.

Swap Bissouma back into Kayals spot and bring in Gross in front of rthe midfield 3 and behind Jahanbhaksh and Knockaert and you have a winning team.

Stuck at it and produced some good performances (he's hardly alone in being abysmal recently).

When was his actual last good performance?

You could say that about at least 5 of the first team, including some of the more established players. And who else do we play?
Clearly he is a fragile boy, clearly he has some ability. given we have wide options, and given that he joined the club primarily as a forward, why not play him? At least if he has a stinker it's another cross against his name, but if he scores, plays well, is that not a good thing?
