[Albion] Flash poll - how strong of a side would you like to see us field versus Chelsea tonight?

[Mustafa II]

 

[Mr Bridger]

Definitely maybe strong, don’t think too weak, but definitely enough to get a result of some sort.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

We have players that need to get up to speed .
Precious minutes for the likes of Igor/Baleba/Dahoud/Lamptey/Buananotte.

Our second 11 should be starting tonight.

 

[Icy Gull]

Struggling to see how we can put out anything but a strong team given the squad and RDZ’s targets

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

Not entirely sure what the difference is between 'fairly strong' and 'weakened' in your poll.

Our 25 man squad doesn't really have 'fringe' players, and they're almost all 'young'

I suppose Igor is fringe and Baleba is young, so then them plus 9 other first teamers.

 

[bluenitsuj]

Strong obviously

 

[Simster]

We don't really have anything other than a strong squad, unless we play the U21s.

But a team without Dunk and Veltman severely weakens us. However, I think I'd be "happy" to see that, because he needs to give alternatives a chance. I'd like to see a similar team to the AEK game and give those players a chance to put it right.

 

[StonehamPark]

I REALLY want to beat Chelsea (again).

However, I more than the above, don’t want any potential injuries. Not to mention having absolutely no care towards the Thai Reindeer League Cup whatsoever.

TL ; DR
I don’t know.

We need to bed in the key signings with our most experienced players so Igor & Bart need to play alongside Dunk, Baleba needs to play alongside Gross and Fati needs to play alongside Lallana.

That results in a fairly strong line up of something like:

......................... Bart ........................

Veltman ... Igor ... Dunk ... Estupiñan

.............. Baleba ... Groß ..................

March ............. Lallana ............. Fati

...................... Jaoa Pedro ..................

Whatever suits out season long goals. I'm pretty sure going deep in this competition isn't one of them now.

Gross is not available due to injury.

No first team players please, bigger fish to fry this year. The u21s

 

[Bakero]

Well, that ain't happening.

 

[The Wookiee]

Bart
Veltman
JPvH
Igor
Lamptey
Baleba
Dahoud
March
Buanotte
Adingra
Pedro

 

[The Fits]

We won't play any kids, I'm certain of that. It will be the strongest team RDZ can pick. He wants to compete in all competitions and we will lose if we weaken too much.

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Builders Tea please.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I think the days of a 1st XI and reserves are gone, and there are probably 17 or 18 players that are used to starting matches for us.

Whoever RDZ wants to pick I'm fine with that.
